Witty, soulful, rounded story

Rating: 9/10 (2 April 2000)

A witty and highly watchable movie. I read the book and this was an excellent translation to film. The way the English characters in the story were translated to American ones was really well done, and I felt the spirit of the book was maintained really well. Loads of choice comic moments, but also some good soulful ones. The film got loads of laughs and an ovation at the end in my local movie theatre. Go see!
