Love is a serious act

Rating: Null/10 (13 November 2003)

(Synopsis-Spoiler?) `Love Actually,' a romantic comedy, is a series of love stories of several people from the Prime Minister to a rock star, an actor stand-in, a housemaid, and others. It takes place in England and France during the Christmas season. Hugh Grant plays the unmarried Prime Minister of the UK, who falls in love with Martine McCutcheon. All of the love stories show the serious and foolish sides of love. The movie has the dry sense of British humor in places, but there are some hilarious parts. The movie is a little hard to follow, because it jumps around showing a small scene of one love story then another. Do not take your kids to this `R' rated movie, because there are some nude scenes. (Universal Pictures, Run Time 2:15, Rated R) 4/10
