This movie underwhelms

Rating: 1/10 (7 February 2007)

After I had heard good comments about this movie I decided to watch it together with my family. But afterward we thought this movie is really boring. The beginning was not bad but the story did not really work. Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant did their very best but I believe that they were miscast as a couple in love. They were unable to get into the plot. The movie is much too long, especially the last thirty minutes extends the movie in an unnecessary way. While watching the movie we hoped it would work up to a climax but we were disappointed. Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant have both starred in other romantic movies with a much stronger story. Altogether I cannot recommend this movie.
