Iris and the Men
Comedy Romance
Iris is disappointed with her husband, they haven't made love for months and a friend suggests she try a dating app for married people looking for a lover but not a divorce.
Iris and the Men explores a woman's frustration at her husband's lack of interest in sex without being salacious. While extramarital adventures might be an interesting plot premise, audiences may wonder what the point is, as an older woman talking about her sexual needs is not exactly funny. There's also an assumption viewers will find someone fumbling with dating apps interesting - a risky stance. Despite the movie's shortcomings, the lead actor carries off the unlikely plot with her signature intelligence and bounce. French kissing.
