A 30 second Hallmark Card Commercial in over an hour

Rating: Null/10 (8 November 2013)

Basically. this film is a 30 second fluffy Hallmark love commercial in over an hour.
What this film does not realize is that very few people fall in love or try to fall in love within seconds. No significant amount of time spent on figuring how or why these people got in love or why it is important. A brief, cursory look at the why and how of love would be beneficial.People would be better off watching a series of cheap :30 second commercials on the topic of relationships than watching this crapola.
There were so many stereotypical themes: the upper class English writer who proposes to the poor Portuguese maid, the royalty (Hugh Grant) who decides to "slum it" and approach the middle to lower class aid, the British guy who decided all British women were uptight and would move to American where all women were "loose".
Lots of stereotypes and lots of predictability. Typical.
