mysteryajeeth-526-693182 Hollywood has witnessed many rom-coms and this one will definitely be among the best! Character sketch and story telling are in a beautiful sync that you will fall in love with all the characters. Perfect movie to watch on a Sunday evening!
heidibetrug This has an interesting twist on the girl meets guy standard rom com formula. The parts are well cast and the actors are natural and likable...except for Cameron Diaz, who is TERRIBLE. She overacts, over gesticulates, and even her character is so annoying she's difficult to watch. There are many who could have delivered this part and she is certainly not one of them. She's the one sour note in an otherwise enjoyable movie.
Mandar Nitin Pawar A straightforward fairy tale-like story having no surprising moments, predictable screenplay, worth watching for the acting of Kate Winslet, Jude Law and soulful music by Hans Zimmer. Kate Winslet and Jude Law both steal the show and make you feel the emotions the character is feeling. Kate delivers very brilliant performance while portraying a confused girl, struggling with her emotional conflicts. Hans Zimmer created on of the loveliest theme a romantic-comedy film has ever had. Direction is okay. Memorable for Kate and Jude's characters.
leplatypus I was indecisive with this movie as it seems to offer good things (christmas season, Kate, Jack Black) but also rotten ones as well (Diaz, Law)… After watching it, i can surely say that it is a real stinker ! First of all, you can't tell this a movie happening between Christmas and New Year and it's surely the worst movie that fails to catch the spirit of this special time ! You can draw the same conclusion for the locations : it should have been an essential factor but the differences between LA and English country-life is badly handled ! Remember NL vacations in Europe for quality!Next, it's again an Hollywood movie talking about Hollywood life and for me, it's ground zero of film-making ! I don't watch movies to have time with producers, writers or composers ! Next, i sincerely tried but Diaz is just a poor actress : she isn't funny or romantic ! In addition, Law is just boring playing his usual handsome widower that i just skip all their scenes so half the movie goes to the trash ! So there's only Kate and Jack Black left : Kate is always great playing this simple, open, emotional reactive girl and Jack Black is cool ! They have good chemistry together ! But that's all : their respective love story is dull as ever and the meeting with old writer is totally useless, pointless and Wallach stays as irritating old as young!So i felt very miserable with this movie announced as Holyday!!! No more!!!
