Plot Summary
The critically acclaimed romantic comedy of the year, Next Stop Wonderland is a lighthearted story about a man and a woman who seem destined to be together...and the hilarious chain of accidents that seem determined to keep them apart! Dumped by her loser boyfriend (Philip Seymour Hoffman The Talented Mr. Ripley), Erin (Hope Davis Arlington Road) thinks that her love life has hit rock bottom. In reality, the alltime low comes when her overbearing mother (Holland Taylor TV's The Practice) places an embarrassing ad for her in the "personals" section of a local newspaper! Erin's disgust turns to curiousity, however, when the calls start pouring in all 64 of them! As she searches for the right guy in a hilarious series of disastrous dates, a lonely explumber named Alan (Alan Gelfant) clumsily searches for his dream job...all the while narrowly missing one chance meeting with Erin after another! Filled with delightfully unexpected surprises, you're sure to love every minute of this smart and funny adventure into the wildly unpredictable world of dating!

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Next Stop, Wonderland isn't really much more than a beautifully acted, finely edited sitcom, but it creates and sustains an intelligent, seriocomic mood better than any recent film about the urban single life.
Fresh: A sweetly seductive romantic comedy!
Rotten: There's not much to stop for in Wonderland.
Fresh: A soulful, thoughtful comedy!
Customer Reviews
For Bossa Nova Lovers
If you have a strong affection for Bossa Nova, you'll love this movie. No, the acting is perfect, but there are a lot of recognizable faces. The story has as much to do with the main character finally being ok with herself as it does with the music. Definitely worth a view.
Rated R for strong violence and grisly images??
The R rating info is completely wrong. There is absolutely no violence, no grisly images, no drug use, no language and so sex/nudity. It's a very straight-forward chick flick.....my husband was a little disappointed ;-)
Wonderful Little Movie
The actors all find little parts of their characters to show us. The montage of prospective suitors is hugely funny and perfectly edited. The movie makes the viewer root for the characters, even ones we know could make better choices. Fun!
