Better Milwaukee than Cleveland!

Rating: Null/10 (23 November 2003)

I REALLY enjoyed this film, and while I would have had a chuckle if the "Colin" character had chosen Cleveland as his american destination, my fair city has been the butt of WAY too many jokes! I realized on my first viewing of this film (on my second, and NOT last viewing in the theaters!), that I had to just "go with it" on some of the storylines....would the "Colin" character have REALLY been so lucky to run into 5 sexy babes on his first night in the states? WHATEVER - it COULD happen! I just enjoyed this film as it was, it doesn't tell us that we should live our lives as they did, it was just a way to show a variety of relationships up and down the scale.
Emma Thompson broke my heart in the bedroom scene - watching her process was amazing. And on the "flip" side, the gift wrapping scene of the necklace made me pee my pants!!!!! SOOO FUNNY!
I REALLLLLLLY liked this film, it will be in my "permanent DVD collection" at some point!
