Synopsis
After a party in Sydney, an attractive young man (David Wenham, Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers), and woman (Susie Porter, Paradise Road) share a taxi. What starts out as a one-night stand turns into 3 days of the two exploring what they really want from life and each other.

Critics' reviews
- "Cheekily diverting, decidedly feel-good, tremendously sexy entertainment."
- "It is better than a root canal, an IRS audit, or a rained-out ballgame"
- "This is a small, funny movie drawn from the radical notion that a love born of late-night lust can survive the glaring light of day."
- "It's a good thing 'Better Than Sex', which is pretty raunchy and absolutely not for prudes, does have more than sex on its mind, because otherwise audiences might be tempted to dismiss it as a tease."
- "Wenham and Porter are appealing actors, and Teplitzky's depiction of their coupling has an unflinching realism."
- "The film's greatest assets are leads Susie Porter and David Wenham, whose considerable personal appeal make its trite observations about the war of the sexes seem charming"
