This latest contribution to the booming subgenre of buppie relationship comedies arrives well stocked with sitcom stereotypes: A horny suburban dad (Chris Rock) is tempted to stray with a man-eating vixen (Kerry Washington) when his wife (Gina Torres) stops putting out. There are moments early on when the script for I Think I Love My Wife (which Rock and Louis C.K. adapted from Eric Rohmer's Chloe in the Afternoon) crackles. But too few to save the film. EXTRAS Lots of 'em, including some delicious bloopers of Rock riffing on granny panties. C
