影片對白
Morgan: Hey, have you eaten?
Kate: No, but I'm not-
Morgan: Neither have I. I realized I'm totally starving. We could grab a quick bite.
Kate: Okay.
Morgan: Yeah?
Kate: All right.
Morgan: Looks pretty good. Perfect.
Kate: No, Morgan, it's--it's not.
Morgan: No, no, trust me.
Kate: It's--Okay.
Morgan: Hi there.
Receptionist: One sec. Could you hold on for a moment?
Morgan: We'd love a table for two.
Receptionist: The name?
Morgan: We don't-- We don't have a reservation.
Receptionist: I'm sorry, sir, we're booked until October.
Morgan: October? Well...I'll get back to you. That went well.
Kate: It's no big deal. Oh, come on, stop it. It's the best restaurant in town. Nobody gets a table here.
Morgan: No, it's not that.
Kate: Well, what is it?
Morgan: I didn't do this right.
Kate: There wasn't a meeting.
Morgan: You'd see me if there was no big deal.
Kate: If it was just-Ambush.
Morgan: You know, coffee, and coffee can turn into dinner, dinner can turn into-
Kate: Turn into what?
Morgan: I'll admit that I do sometimes get a few steps ahead of myself.
Kate: Morgan, a few steps? You're always leaping 10 steps ahead. We were dating, what, a week? And you had our entire future mapped out for us? In my residency, you were picking out real estate. I'd go to your house the weekend you have the entire town in your house to meet me.
Morgan: I do seem to remember that you made pretty fast friends with one of them.
Kate: What are you talking about?
Morgan: You know what I'm talking about. That guy.
Kate: What guy?
Morgan: The guy I caught you making out with.
Kate: I wasn't making out with him. What, are we in junior high school right now?
Morgan: What do you call it, then?
Kate: A kiss. It was just one kiss with some random guy that just--Years--You know what?
妙語佳句
1. Starve
這個詞本身的詞義是“餓死，使餓死”，但是在口語中使用的時候很生動，最常見的就是 Are you hungry? I'm starving. 之類的表達。
此外，在別的例子中，它的意思有所差異：
She's lonely, and starving for companionship. 她很寂寞，渴望友誼。這裏的意思就是“因為缺乏某物而困苦”。
再如：We all starve for news. 我們都渴望得到消息。
2. Grab a quick bite
這是美國快餐文化背景下產生的一個句子，本義是：很快的吃幾口。現在人們在使用的時候更多的是說“隨便吃點”或者“簡單吃點”。
人們也說 grab a bite to eat，意思同樣是表示“找個餐館隨便吃點”，尤其是指快餐店。
3. It's no big deal
這個句子大家應該相對比較熟悉，意思是“沒什麽大不了的”。
如： It's no big deal that his car is more expensive than mine.
不過如果我們用肯定形式 big deal 的時候，意思就相反了。如：
So they live in a mansion？Big deal! 他們住在大廈裏嘍？了不起！
I've decided that I should read the magazine and see what's the big deal. 我決定看看雜誌，看看有什麽大不了的事。
4. make out
When people make out, they often also hug and press their bodies against each other. Making out is an American slang. After a period of prolonged kissing, two people may choose a more sexual form of making out, known as necking.
Make out 是一個意思很多的詞組，但是在影片的這個片段，它的意思就是俚語中的“親吻，親熱”。這個詞組在電影或電視劇中時有出現，希望大家能明白它的意思。
我觀之我見 
多年前，一部驚心動魄的《生死時速》成就了基努·裏維斯與桑德拉·布洛克這對經典的銀幕情侶。之後，一個成了《駭客帝國》的救世主，而另一個則繼續演繹傻大姐的角色，兩人毫無交集。
十二年後，這部《觸不到的戀人》促成了兩人的再度合作。不過當年的青春少年早已不再，好在兩人演繹的都是建築師，醫生一類的社會精英階層，年紀總算可以暫時忽略不計。
在影片中，裏維斯與布洛克的對手戲並不多，基本都是獨角戲，這頗為考驗演技。對裏維斯來說，難度不大，至少可以用扮酷來解決角色的孤獨問題。自言沒有看過原版影片的裏維斯，表演上沒有參照物，壓力相對減少，確實給影迷帶來一定的驚喜。而對一向大大咧咧的布洛克來說，這個柔情角色有點犯難。不過她沒有扮嫩，甚至還剪短頭發，以成熟扮相，力求演繹出成熟女人的非常態戀情。
其實，這部影片對兩人來說，都不啻於是一次轉型良機，長久在動作戲中打拚的裏維斯，挑戰了以講述細膩情感為主的文戲；而一向長於喜劇的布洛克，變身為淑女。至於兩人是否重現了當年的默契，這就留給觀眾來評說了。
