One of the best romantic comedies in a while.

Rating: Null/10 (17 August 1999)

I adore this movie, it is one of my favorites. It's wonderfully sweet, amusing, well-written, and well-acted. I can't think of a single thing wrong with this movie, I enjoyed it thoroughly.
This is definitely one of those romantic comedies that will make you say, "Aw, how sweet." The press conference scene (no spoiling the ending to those of you who haven't seen this movie yet) was really charming.

Not only is this sweet, but it also, unlike most of the romantic comedies today, is funny. William's friends and family are all hilairious, from his sister Honey to his friend in a wheelchair Bella (note- on the review on the front page, they say Honey is in the wheelchair. That's his sister). His roommate was beyond hilairious. I was repulsed and yet cracking up at the same time.
One of the best things about this movie are the wonderful performances. Julia Roberts shows us why she is the biggest money-drawer in films today. I was near tears when she told William how she is "just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her." Hugh Grant makes a surprising comeback from a string of really bad movies. He was charming in every way and completely believable at the same time. All of the supporting characters were well acted as well, especially Rhys Ifans, Spike, the roommate. I can not say enough about this man- he's hilairious.
You need to see this movie. Multiple times.
