One of my favorites

Rating: 9/10 (9 May 2014)

I watched this once on DVD and later bought my own copy because I liked it so much. I love that there are so many different relationships in the film with so many people interconnected. There are relationships you can relate to, ones you can't understand and others that make you cry. The movie explores all facets of love, physical, emotional, unrequited love, unending love, young love, forbidden love, etc. etc. Set around a background of Christmas, and some might call it a holiday movie, but I find it something to watch any time of year. It does have a R rating because of language and nudity, it does have a massive star filled cast. It is not a romantic movie, nor is it even close to reality. It is a Hollywood, over the top, almost everyone gets their happily-ever-after production. But for a small period of time, I can sit back, watch people blunder around like we do in real life, and then without all the normal life stuff that gets in your way, live happily ever after(mostly.) And since I like the ability to escape every now and then, this fits the bill.
