Actually very good(in parts)

Rating: 7/10 (21 November 2003)

The good parts -all the bits with Bill Nighy; Hugh Grant dancing in Number 10; Kris Marshall, Martin Freeman and (especially) Emma Thompson. The bad - and incredible - part: Martine McCutcheon as Grant's love interest. This mostly feel-good movie mostly makes you feel good, while Emma Thompson's superb performance provides the one glimpse of real pain that love can bring.
