The group writes a chick lit, or more specifically a “mummy porn” novel, in the style of “Fifty Shades of Grey”, and it gets snapped up. The only snag, is that the publisher insists that the young female “author” does press and publicity. The guys have to keep their involvement a secret, and so engage an out of work actress to “role play” the part of the author. This leads to her becoming the star in the movie of the book. The tables are turned on the guys, and she is in control, leaving them with the awful prospect of having to secretly churn out sex novels for the foreseeable future.

Should have been so much better
Oh dear. Another writer/director movie (okay, they’re not all bad, just most of them.) It’s a strange little film with a great idea and some class actors – including John Hurt, bless! Love him but he must have done it for the money – but in dire need of some editing, rewriting, tightening, reworking and all the other stuff you do to make a so-so movie better.Read the blurb and within a couple of minutes of the movie you know what’s going to happen. But the actors are good – hooray! – and it’s probably that that made me watch to the end.
There are some nice bits of dialogue but much does not further the plot or develop character and you feel – like the characters – that you’re sitting in a pub waiting for last orders to be called.
There are also some unbelievable character motivations and the writer has absolutely no knowledge of how the publishing industry works – particularly the timescale! It might have a message. I’ve no idea what it is but it is definitely last century! Notting Hill it’s not.
Some good laughs with major plot holes
Actually, a fun premise. Several friends, most well read, come to the rescue of their favorite pub which is on the verge of closing its doors. They plan to write a ‘mommy porn’ romance genre book. A young sister-law actress wannabe is tagged to front the plan as the supposed author.Some great actors in an overall fine cast. Also, some nice belly laughs as the plan goes forward with each of the men writing one or more chapters of the book.
The movie goes off track with major plot holes. First, a movie version of a book almost always takes years before shooting begins. Yes, they mention fast tracking this book into a movie but no fast track can turn years into days or weeks. Utterly, ridiculous.
The book takes off with huge sales, women shown reading the books all over the city and in droves, a smash hit true page turner including a major TV guest appearance by the ‘author.’ Now, remember this is about a trashy, sexy romance novel. Yet, we are told that only a week or so later the public decided the trashy novel was ‘trashy nonsense’, they turned on it and tanked the book. Utter rubbish. This is totally absurd and has never happened except for those few cases where the author committed such as fraud or plagiarism.
Of course, if the book tanked a week or two after its release this also contradicts the ‘fact’ that the movie version of the book had already progressed to actual filming? Plot holes one could drive an 18 wheeler through.
One review incorrectly notes the girl/author screws the guys by making deals, for new books etc. around them. However, they are later told she was offered such deals but rejected them.
Better ending would have found the girl getting a Hollywood acting gig, her first love, and giving up further writing.
