The plot’s in the title. A socially awkward, slightly suicidal man (Joaquin Phoenix) is caught in a love triangle between a sweet girl his parents adore (Vinessa Shaw) and his neighbour who has her own set of boohoo cry-me-a-Nile problems (Gwyneth Paltrow). With a storyline as generic as this, the strength of the film needs to lie in its characters. That’s not the case with Two Lovers. Despite some truly impressive all-round performances, it’s hard to care about anything the lead does, let alone try to empathise with him. You’ll see Paltrow’s boob, but the film’s hardly worth your time.
YEAH... NAH...
