When her boyfriend goes astray, it's time for Shante Smith (Vivica A𒈔 Fox) to instigate a "10 Day Program" to manipulate his feelings and get him back. But - you guessed it - this man has a mind (and friends) of his own and won't be easily swayed.

Turning a relationship into a battleground, writer-director Mark Brown treads familiar territory here - this kind of warring-sexes banter was bread and butter for Spencer Tracey and Katharine Hepburn back in the '40s. The upshot is that, despite a wisecracking cast and some funny moments, the story remains old hat and, in more than a few places, utterly silly. The central couple a🎃re so sickeningly attractive and successful that it's hard to feel for them. And that's before they start behaving with the emotional maturity of 13 ye𒆙ar olds.

A cynical l෴ook at the way egos get in the way of emotions, Two Can Play ꧙That Game gets one thing right, and one thing only - this couple deserves each other.
