Two Weeks Notice

2002, 1h 41m

Our Comments: 10-10-2023 with HS, in Niagara. Rented it on Amazon. Very funny and enjoyable, with a believable story about a self-centered, womanizing, shallow multi-millionaire developer and an activist lawyer who winds up working for him through an interesting twist. There are memorably funny/witty lines in this movie. It’s a good date night movie to watch at home by mature viewers. Enjoyment rating: 3.5 star

Clean Comments: Given that the leading man is a shallow womanizer, you can surmise that there will be sexual references throughout the movie. There is a strip-chess scene that has a couple winding up in their underwear, and references to casual sex. But these things are not central to the movie. It stands on its own outside of these themes. This movie is not for kids or impressionable teens. But it is still basically an “average” movie from a morality standpoint. Two Weeks Notice would be a discretionary choice for mature viewers. Clean Rating: 3 (3 = Average for a Mainstream Film (several moral* issues; watch at your discretion).

TMDB: “Dedicated environmental lawyer Lucy Kelson goes to work for billionaire George Wade as part of a deal to preserve a community center. Indecisive and weak-willed George grows dependent on Lucy’s guidance on everything from legal matters to clothing. Exasperated, Lucy gives notice and picks Harvard graduate June Carter as her replacement. As Lucy’s time at the firm nears an end, she grows jealous of June and has second thoughts about leaving George.”
