SummaryTemptation takes on a wickedly delicious new flavor in About Adam, as every character is seduced...all by the same mysterious man: the sinfully sweet Adam (Townsend). Like his Garden of Eden counterpart, this sexy modern Dubliner has become the apple of one woman's (Hudson) eye --and everyone else's forbidden fruit. (Miramax Films)

Unlike "Four Weddings," which ultimately was moralistic and conservative in its message --—About Adam is a frolic free of any judgments, and marked by Stembridge's sparkling wit.

Quick-witted, spicy Irish comedy.
75
Surprisingly sweet and infectious.
70
Hudson is ebullient, never cutesy, and her accent stays in tune.
60
Simply a pleasant diversion rather the paean to crazy-in-love classics it would so like to be.
60
Sweet, likable and consistently engaging, if so insubstantial that it's always on the verge of blowing away.
42
Cotton candy story with an acrid aftertaste.
