MUCH as this new release might seem like a straight-to-TV flop right out of the '80s, some absolutely sterling performances from three great actors (Sam Neill, Susan Sarandon and Emily Blunt), coupled with a finely honed script, ensure that Irresistible's entertainment value is actually very high.
The tale of a mother-of-two fearing she is being stalked by a younger female rival is a familiar one, but with some tasty modern twists tacked on that you won't necessarily see coming, the film manages to hold your interest.
The rather hasty ending is a little dissatisfying, but the selection of alternative endings on the disc might just sort that one out.
