I actually love Love Actually

Rating: 8/10 (7 January 2005)

I don't know why. But I actually love Love Actually.
What more: I like movies like this. Ever since I watched Robert Altmans Short Cuts I have had a thing going for all the small stories weaving into one. Like that Love Actually can compete with Magnolia and several other.
Why? Probably because it gives space for thinking. The stories are spinning, and the viewer isn't forced to just be a mindless spectator, but may weave into the story, he may do something that is more worth while than just pouring out his money. Now of course the actors do great jobs do.
Especially Alan Rickman... who gets to show that he really is a great character actor. But hey, Bill Nighy, Colin Firth, Liam Neeson, Emma Thompson, Keira Knightley, Hugh Grant, Billy Bob Thornton, Rowan Atkinson, Elisha Cuthbert and Claudia Schiffer are doing great performances too.
They must have had the time of their life making it.
