There are no surprises in this tale, filmed with deliberately deglamorized handheld camera (yet inexplicably in widescreen); it puts the "adult" in "adultery drama," if by "adult" you mean joyless bores.

Anna has everything she thought she could ever need: a respectable career, a caring family, and a loving partner. But when she meets Domenico, a handsome, married waiter, her world falls apart and they begin a tumultuous affair. As the two lovers fall deeper under the spell of passion, they are faced with a life-changing choice that neither is prepared to make.

What are critics saying?
From its title on, Come Undone is as dully generic as is imaginable.
Village Voice by Nick Pinkerton
This self-consciously modern movie contains classical pleasures.
The New York Times by Stephen Holden
Like Mr. Soldini's last film, "Days and Clouds," a calm, very sad examination of the effects of a husband's sudden job loss on an affluent couple's relationship and social life, Come Undone is solidly grounded in mundane reality. If the movie tells an old story, its unvarnished realism lends it poignancy and depth.
Soldini is able to take the shopworn theme and keep it interesting and fresh despite its lack of new ideas. He's assisted by strong performances by his two leading actors.
