Pure entertainment !

Rating: 10/10 (8 October 2008)

I saw this movie in 2002. I was, I remember, in a rather low phase those days. I'd actually gone for another movie but ended up buying tickets to this as the one I went for had a full house.Boy! I guess my stars led me to it! I left the hall fully entertained, satisfied and strangely with full of hope and a new vigor! The movie cheered me up and made me forget my sadness. I simply felt lighter and happier. And, although little over carried away as I might seem, this simple pleasure the movie brought me and the positiveness I felt is certainly worth sharing.
Rene is truly truly fantastic! what an achievement for her! she totally deserves her best actress nomination and should have won it too! see the work! What an acting! A girl from the glamour world that she is and doing that and with such real effects that we can't help it but be totally CHARMED by her despite the character's many faults. Absolutely lovely and heights of romance! Back then, I did not know Colin Firth and had not yet seen him in Pride and Prejudice (Classis! Classic! Classis!). The man blew me away! I fell in love with him and set out on a rampage to find all his works! He's a perfect dream man. And Hugh Grant just sizzles the screen with his perpetual mega play boy good looks. He played his role wonderfully and was really really funny. His attitute and mannerism towards his treatment of Mr.Darcy is a roar. Darcy, so uptight and he, so loose and free - each thinking himself more up than the other. He entertained me the most! all three of them are marvelous in the movie!
The story is fascinating! Unconditional love. two pole ends meeting and finding they suit each other. To have someone love you just the way you are even if you are a little pathetic..etc..etc. Go see the movie & enjoy. Think happy thoughts and escape to fantasy land. The ones who are unsatisfied with the movie should try it out again just for the mind's sake.
I rate this 10 out of 10 for pure entertainment.
