Why Love Actually Sucks.

Rating: 2/10 (26 November 2003)

Love Actually is an English movie about people in relationships.The previews make it look like a cute and funny film that you might see with family or friends. However, it is nothing but a corny, unoriginal waste of time that makes Bridget Jones' Diary look like a masterpiece. Everything about this complete mess of a romantic comedy has scenes that have been done many times before. For an example, there are too many movies to name where there have been foreign love affairs and relationships involving older married men with young women. As a matter of fact, the movie does a bad job of indicating whether the two even had an affair. Another thing about this movie is that it is trying too hard for laughs. So there were a few funny bits but other than that I was laughing at the stupidity. I saw this with my family and we all agreed that Love Actually shows you how you can make an absurd movie with a good cast. I was disappointed that Keira Knightly did not have a better or a more interesting role considering she is very talented. However I am giving this movie 2 out of 10 because Bill Nighy saved the movie for his unique character as an older rock star. One of the first lines is "Love actually is everywhere" which is true.
However on a different note my quote is "Love actually sucks."
