Much better than I was expecting

Rating: Null/10 (10 July 2000)

I don't really like either of the lead actors in this movie but they are both very good in this light comedy. There are several things that are better left unmentioned (if she is the biggest movie star in the world, she would have an entourage or a bodyguard at the very least; his ignorance of the outside world is silly - he never heard of Leonardo DiCaprio?!) but it still works pretty well for the most part. Julia underplays most of the way and gives Hugh Grant a lot to work with. It was a lot better than I was expecting it to be.
