Worse Actually

Rating: 2/10 (21 December 2006)

Four Weddings and a Funeral was fantastic. Notting Hill was good, but fell a tad short. This one sucks.
I blame writer Richard Curtis. Everyone else from High Grant to Bill Nighy is either excellent or good.
I think someone must have told Curtis that you get a more exciting script if you raise the stakes.
So, 4 Weddings is about a bunch of posh Brits and their romances. Notting Hill is about a posh Brit romancing (gasp) an American movie star. This one is about 10 Downing Street, romance and top-level politics, and it's, well, boring actually.
