What's wrong with "Happily-ever-after"?

Rating: 10/10 (10 July 1999)

Ok, so it's not a shootem-up bang,action adventure; and yes maybe it's a little unrealistic. what's wrong with a little happily ever after??? in this day and age of uni-bombers and serial killers; we need a little bit of happily-ever-after, from time to time. Notting Hill has filled the bill. this movie is truly delightful. If you have become a bit of a bah-humbug person, this movie will surely restore your faith in mankind, at least for a little while. Personally, I left the theater feeling good. The script was well written, and character development quick, and interesting; as was the cinematography. Julia was radiant, as always; Hugh was charmingly humble, delivering every line with his usual perfect timing; the supporting cast was well chosen, each one adding their own special little touch to the film, especially Rhys Ifam, "Spike", who somehow managed to steal every scene he was in. My thanks and appreciation to the cast, the crew, and the powers that be, who made this film possible. If you haven't already seen this movie, I highly recommend that you do. I have seen it more than once, and each time it gets better. I'm ready to move to Notting Hill, and hopefully bump into William Thacker.
