Lovely, actually

Rating: Null/10 (6 November 2003)

What a lovely film! Very hilarious, sexy (Colin Firth in a lake, a la Mr. Darcy? Mmm.), heartwarming, heartbreaking... The various storylines blended together nicely. It may be confusing/bothersome to a few, what with all the jumping around from couple to couple; but we see not too much/just enough of each to get a sense of what they're about and to genuinely care for them. Warning: this film is not for you if you're not a total sap/romantic-at-heart. If you don't have a boy-/girlfriend to see it with, it's okay; take a friend or family member with you. It's all about love, all kinds of love, and you'll want to give a big hug to the person you came with (or the stranger sitting next to you...). You'll definitely leave the theatre with a stupid grin on your face. It's a definite must-see, perfect to watch during the Christmas holidays, Valentine's Day, or any other day of the year.
