Summer lovin': Male perspectives in movie romance

— "The Brothers Bloom": Con-artist siblings (Adrien Brody and Mark Ruffalo) attempt to swindle a reclusive heiress (Rachel Weisz), but one of the brothers falls for the eccentric woman during their around-the-world adventure.

— "The Proposal": Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds give new meaning to the term "workplace romance" with Bullock as a rigid Canadian-born boss who plots to marry her American assistant (Reynolds) in order to stay in the United States. — "My Life in Ruins": "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" screenwriter and star Nia Vardalos returns to her Greek roots as a disenchanted tour guide trying to get back her mojo — or "kefi," as the Greeks call it — in the cradle of civilization.

— "Cheri": Michelle Pfeiffer plays a very different type of Catwoman in director Stephen Frears' saucy 1920s tale about a retired Parisian courtesan who has an affair with her friend's 19-year-old son (Rupert Friend). Oh la la.

— "I Hate Valentine's Day": Nia Vardalos reunites with her "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" co-star John Corbett as a commitment-phobic, Valentine's Day-hating tapas restaurant owner who is pursued by Corbett's carefree florist.

— "The Ugly Truth": Katherine Heigl plays a romantically challenged morning show producer who reluctantly agrees to follow the love advice of a chauvinistic shock jock (Gerard Butler) who was hired to boost her show's sagging ratings.

— "Adam": Love is complicated in this Sundance discovery written and directed by Max Mayer about a schoolteacher (Rose Byrne from FX's "Damages") who forms an intimate connection with Adam, her autistic neighbor (Hugh Dancy).

— "The Time Traveler's Wife": In this adaptation of Audrey Niffenegger's 2003 best-selling novel, Rachel McAdams plays the title character: an artist whose husband (Eric Bana) has a genetic disorder that causes him to jump around time.

— "Post Grad": Alexis Bledel graduates from "Gilmore Girls" and "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" in this mature comedy about a graduate who moves back home with her family while trying to find a job and the man of her dreams.

— "When in Rome": A cynical New Yorker (Kristen Bell) jets to Rome for her sister's wedding and is pursued by seven suitors after plucking change out of a fountain that supposedly ensures marriage to anyone who throws coins into it.
