Wonderful film, very British but the comedy is universal.

Rating: 10/10 (14 December 2013)

First of all this film has to be one of the best feel good movies ever in my opinion. All of the characters are realistic enough to be believable. You will find all of these characters or a double of them in UK. The comedy does not flow all the way through continuously and there are scenes of deep realistic and sad scenes. All of the scenes flow well into one another which is difficult when you are dealing with many characters and in many different locations. They couldn't have put the scenes in a better line-up and all the actors were well chosen for each role. The Christmas Office party, the unrequited love, the office vamp, the infidelity, the love, the childhood crush, many of the things that bring this film together. A true masterpiece, unlike Valentine's Day, which seemed to be an American stab at trying to make a US version of Love Actually that didn't quite hit the mark. That's because you need some British actors to play all the American parts, that way you get the humor and the accent.
It is always hard to mold many pieces of film footage together to get a marvel like this film but the beginning and the end which I believe was filmed in the arrivals lounge in Heathrow epitomizes the act of Love, Love of a lover, love of a husband, a wife, love of a son and daughter, grandparents, friends, love actually live and real and not at all faked.
The film will make your Christmas feel more special, make you feel more love in yourself and the world. We are all of the human race and love is a difficult and sometimes heart wrenching business but we all have the capacity to love and although the film is a comedy with tinges of sadness, I hope people who watch this film realize, "Love is all around". I am not usually like this about films with love in them, so I will now retreat to a quiet place and find myself a big bucket. But you guys feel free to love this film!
