Love it, love it, love it

Rating: 9/10 (3 October 2006)

Just an incredible movie, inside out. The opening song--"She," by Elvis Costello, for those who are interested--gives me goosebumps every time I hear it; just fits the movie so amazingly well. This is a truly lively, soul-wrenching tale that even the sternest of people will not be able to watch without feeling something. I'm a guy who NEVER cries, and I came very, very close watching this movie. It has joyous ups and heart-wrenching downs...but as in all Curtis films, ends on a brilliantly happy note. Love it. Hugh Grant is gold: quirky, funny, dry, his best performance outside of the comically cruel "About a Boy." And Julia Roberts is spellbinding in her role as Anna Scott...just an amazing match.
I always struggle to pick my favorite movies, but this one makes the top 3 easily. It's just that good. See it no matter what. You won't regret it.
