Synopsis:

A frank and funny romantic comedy set in Antwerp, filmed in a quirkily inventive style, Madly in Love has a lot to say about human relationships. It focuses on the four women of the Miller family: teen daughter Eva, her mother Judith, aunt Barbara and older half-sister Michelle, as they work their way through the chaos called love. The result is a roller coaster ride of first crushes, lust, affairs, baby fever, and indestructible love. The four women are beautiful, courageous and sensible, but are also sometimes a bit lost. Can their male counterparts handle this dangerous cocktail of determination and female hormones?

Actress Judith (Veerle Dobbelaere) still pines for her former hubby, architect and ex-alcoholic Bert (Koen De Bauw). Daughter Michelle (Marie Vinck, the helmer's daughter) works for Dad but feel unappreciated. She was once secretly in love with Mathias (Kevin Janssens), who's now unhappily married to Judith's sister (Wine Dierickx), who, after failing to conceive, has thrown herself into the arms of colleague-cum-sex god Johan (Koen De Graeve). Van Mieghem and co-scripter Bert Scholiers violently shake up their spider diagram of sex, unfaithfulness and relationship issues several times, though a happy ending never seems in doubt. Perfs are fine, tech package as shiny as a Christmas present.

Sex, lies and "Amelie"-like cinematic tricks dominate "Madly in Love," a carnal variation on musical chairs from Flanders that's more flashy than profound. The third and most frivolous directorial effort of Belgian thesp Hilde Van Mieghem ("The Kiss") is the kind of film in which a running commentary on the amorous travails of four women, delivered by a 12-year-old know-it-all, is considered cute.
