Kraft, not craft

Rating: 1/10 (12 May 2007)

Cheesy, cheesy, cheesy! What a ghastly waste of a few talented actors (Hugh Grant is never to be included in that category). What were they thinking signing on to this mare's nest of unfulfilled plot lines and totally embarrassing situations? Shame on everyone involved in this travesty of a romantic(?) comedy(?). Too many...dozens...annoying incidents to mention like the scene in the Portuguese restaurant in Marseille (?) playing Hollywood homogenized sound-stage orchestra music erasing any bit of authentic flavour that would have been imparted if the guitars seen busily being strummed in the background could have been heard instead. The entire film rates one gigantic "Eeeew...".
