Best bit? The end credits.

Rating: Null/10 (25 April 2001)

I was really looking forward to seeing this movie as I am a huge fan of Renee Zellweger, but came away really disappointed. Firstly though,credit where it's due.The performance from Ms Zellweger was pretty spot on and her English accent was fine but where were the laughs? Sure there are a couple of amusing moments;Fireman's pole,Tarts and Vicars party but a couple of funny moments do not a good comedy make.
Also the movie seemed to be almost completely populated by stereotypes- the wacky,not as attractive best friends,the camp gay one,the lecherous Uncle,the posh dizzy aunt...the list goes on. Anyway,as I seem to be in the minority with my views I'll end here but just one more word of warning.If you do find yourself watching this movie and you do share the same views as me,just when you think it can't really get any worse, toward the end of the film your ears will be assaulted by Geri bloody Halliwell's horrific cover version of It's Raining Men.Which is reason enough in itself not to see this movie.
Oh, and in England it never snows at Christmas.
