I love it but then I like most Richard Curtis films. I have it on video. I would recommend it but that is just my opinion and not much else on a Sunday night!

Blandmum · 20/11/2005 17:49

It is good. Not as good as 4 weddings and a funeral but bettwe than love actualy

RTKangaMummy · 20/11/2005 17:50

Think i did like 4 weddings yeah, and I loved Love Actually.

baublerock · 20/11/2005 17:51

It's a lovely film - shame it's on at the same time as '....get me out of here' which I am actually looking forward to

The Four Weddings team produced another smash with this charming tale about a bumbling bookshop owner (Hugh Grant) who falls for the "most famous actress in the world" (Julia Roberts). Inevitably, the course of true love is a bumpy road, with friends, family and flatmates getting in the way, but that's the cue for a series of screamingly funny scenarios. Saturated with wit and well directed by Roger Michell, the film was bashed by sceptics for its fluffiness and lack of realism (for a racially mixed area of London, there's not a black face to be seen). But, if you can accept the context as 100 per cent white middle class, with a light-hearted commentary on the nature of celebrity, it's an intensely enjoyable experience.

Uggh. Didn't make it through Notting Hill. Took two ciggy breaks and each time I came back in it got worse, so I gave up .

Love Actually. Well, there's a book called 'Merde Actually' that's much more entertaining .

nutcracker · 20/11/2005 17:52

Dp is moaning, says he doesn't like it. He's never seen it either.

nutcracker · 20/11/2005 17:53

Is Hugh Grant nicey nicey in it or a bad boy, cos I don't like him nicey nicey.

expatinscotland · 20/11/2005 17:53

Your partner has a gift. He can sense sh*te films w/o having to waste time watching them. He is wise beyond words .

expatinscotland · 20/11/2005 17:53

He's nicey nice and fumbling and makes all Englishmen out to be wet noodles.

nutcracker · 20/11/2005 17:54

LOL Expat

nutcracker · 20/11/2005 17:54

Hmmm might give it a go, but Hugh Grant gets on my nerves a bit when he is nicey nicey, makes me wanna slap him.

Love him in Bridget Jones.

expatinscotland · 20/11/2005 17:56

Just keep your punching bag close by, b/c you'll want to bitchslap him w/i the first 5 minutes he's onscreen .

nutcracker · 20/11/2005 17:56

ROFL

expatinscotland · 20/11/2005 17:57

And if you want to slap him, your DP will want to headbutt him. Maybe then Hugh's balls might pop out . . .

nutcracker · 20/11/2005 17:59

Dp has already said a few choice things about him since I mentioned it was on.

Have just told him Julia Roberts is in it too, and thats definatly reduced the chances of me watching it i think. Won't tell you his exact words, but

Blandmum · 20/11/2005 18:00

Ah , Julia, or as she is know in this house 'the wide mouthed frog'

expatinscotland · 20/11/2005 18:00

I'd love to rearrange her face myself. I'd start w/that Concorde nose - maybe then her voice wouldn't be so damned annoying. Then I'd wipe that Tom Cruise smile off her face . . .

expatinscotland · 20/11/2005 18:02

She's the most overrated, up herself cow since Gwyneth Paltrow. Yuk.

A homewrecking slut, too.

Blandmum · 20/11/2005 18:02

Expat, stop bottling it up, tell us what you really think!

expatinscotland · 20/11/2005 18:02

Gawd, that sounded awful! But it's true. Her dirtbag husband left his pregnant wife for her. Then the wife was so stressed she miscarried early in her 2nd trimester. .

expatinscotland · 20/11/2005 18:03

I just don't see the 'great actress' bit. You know. There are SO many good ones out there. Julia ain't one of 'em.

Hopefully now 'Hazel' and 'Phinneus' will keep her quite. Phinneus. Yeah. That's her son's name. No joke, either.
