Yes, creepy.
7 August 2023
When I was 58, I met a hot 24 year old history graduate student on Internet and we certainly did have a fling, including marriage and 2 beautiful children. Divorced now, she hates me, which really makes no sense, but ....

I don't think I looked (or look) as fossilized as Cooper does in this film, though. And Audrey Hepburn seemed made to look 16 ... at most.

At least one other reviewer has said he thinks older movie executives have an ulterior motive for pushing such relationships, and I share that suspicion.

My older son and daughter have married people their own age and are quite happy. I have 2 grandchildren.

I still - I'm 76 - would have no compunction getting seriously involved with a much younger woman. Women my own age are not attractive to me - maybe reminding me of my age ... or death?

Regardless, Cooper *looked* WAY too old, and I stopped watching the film before the half-point. Thinking cuckolding another person - getting involved with a cheating wife - was fun(ny) was repugnant too.

The local dating site has many married women looking for adventure. NO thank you, unless she is young and wants children (and a committed relationship for however much longer I'm ticking) and her husband doesn't.

Badly intended film.

Note the difference of my rating of Blame It on Rio, wherein the dad - Michael Caine - is pursued (by best friend's daughter played by voluptuous Michelle Johnson) *not* the pursuer.
