Plot Summary
Swinging With The Finkels is the story of what happens after the honeymoon ends and couples get bored with married life. Having met in college, American born Ellie (MANDY MOORE) and her husband Alvin (MARTIN FREEMAN), are several years into their marriage. The heady sparks of lust and fun have sadly faded and they’re left with the day to day normality of their everyday life. Advised by best friends Peter (JONATHAN SILVERMAN) and Janet (MELISSA GEORGE), who are having their own marital problems, Ellie and Alvin are desperate to 'spice things up'. Ellie hits upon the brilliant idea to mix things up with another couple - to have a 'consensual affair' within the confines of the marriage. Our couple embark on finding the ideal couple and begin to interview a plethora of perverse and quirky swingers. They finally settle on what seem to be the perfect couple and a night of insanity and hilarity follow.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: A contempo contribution to the august British tradition of lame, unfunny sex comedies.
Rotten: Marriage, in the film, is the necessary evil we all must figure out how to endure in order to be happy or, at least, feel normal.
Rotten: Short of having a urethral swab or inserting a cucumber up yourself, it's hard to imagine a more queasy form of torture than this dismal British sex comedy - about a man who has a urethral swab and a woman who inserts a cucumber up herself.
