FILM REVIEW: What’s Your Number
BASED on the novel 20 Times A Lady, by Karyn Bosnak, What’s Your Number? centres on a twenty-something career girl who imposes a strict limit on the number of men she is allowed to sleep with before she finds her Prince Charming.
When she hits that limit – 20 lovers – the only choice for the beleaguered heroine is to revisit her old flames, hoping that she missed a diamond in the rough the first time around.
Gabrielle Allan and Jennifer Crittenden’s script clings to this flimsy dramatic conceit like a first-time swimmer with a flotation device.
