Disappointing!

Rating: Null/10 (1 June 1999)

OK - now I'm questioning my ability to laugh -- because I rarely did while watching Notting Hill. I don't think it's a chick flick (after all, doesn't the beautiful rich girl ALWAYS get what she wants in real life?) -- it's for men. The three men I went with (ages 23-52) thought it delightful and all gave it a B+. I thought it slow, predictable, poorly developed, weak sense of place. A clever camera shot, a zany roommate, and the rest was absolutely unforgettable. I give it a C
(P.S. Four Weddings... is one of my absolute favorite movies so don't think it's because I don't get it.)
