Mr. Rock has not only done his best work as a director and screenwriter but has also made an unusually insightful and funny mainstream American movie about the predicaments of modern marriage.

Despite the creakiness of the vehicle, there are some genuinely funny moments and observations.
The main drawback is that under director Rock, actor Rock doesn't possess quite the chops to pull off this character, and the humor and flights of fancy are simply too low-key.
The movie, full of wan gags and tedious situations, is directed blandly by Rock.
I Think I Love My Wife has got to be the unlikeliest French New Wave classic ever to be retrofitted by a famous African-American stand-up comedian best known for his stinging social commentary -- at least until Dave Chappelle remakes Jean-Luc Godard's "Breathless" as a hip-hop caper.
In I Think I Love My Wife, Chris Rock does something entirely unexpected. He isn't funny.
