REVIEW
ADDICTED TO LOVE is a dark romantic comedy with Meg Ryan and Matthew Broderick as vindictive jilted lovers who join forces to spy on their ex-soulmates (Tcheky Karyo, Kelly Preston) in a Manhattan flat.
Jealousy and the fury of being romantically ditched show up regularly in the newspaper as routine motives for abuse and homicide. But you seldom see it in movie comedies.
The merciless pair eventually relent and fall in love with each other a sign of hope. The revenge in real life would be cruel, but in movies is only symbolic and has some healthy value as catharsis.
The film’s most inventive device is the manner of the spying, a use of telescope and sound technology that allows Ryan and Broderick to observe the others as if they were watching them in a movie. Addicted earns points for cleverness, if not for hilarity.
