Prime Review

Synopsis: Despite its title, Prime, is not a cut above. This romantic comedy's predictability and rather dull love story make it the cinematic equivalent of a slightly stale hamburger.

In colorful, bustling modern-day Manhattan, Rafi (Uma Thurman), a 37-year-old photography producer reeling from a recent divorce, meets David (Bryan Greenberg), a 23-year-old painter recently out of college. Rafi's therapist, Dr. Lisa Metzger (Meryl Steep), who is working to help Rafi overcome her fears of intimacy, finds out that Rafi's new lover is--unfortunately for Lisa--her only son, David. Both David and Rafi must contend with their 14-year age gap, vastly different backgrounds and the demands of David's traditional mother. Despite their intense attraction, the charmed couple soon realizes that vastly different ages and backgrounds create much conflict. A Jewish hip-hop lover and closet painter who still lives with his grandparents, David has little in common with Rafi--a non-practicing Catholic from a wealthy, broken family who travels in the sophisticated, high-end world of fashion.
