A warm and funny film

Rating: 10/10 (10 June 1999)

Some say it is a companion film to 4 weddings and a funeral and I suppose it is - it has the same wit and same gentleness. Some parts are predictable, where the Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts break up and then make up under the scrutiny of the world's media - this is typically American and like a "Fish Called Wanda" it needs to pander to this market. This aspect was missing from "4 Weddings...." nonetheless it is a very funny film and has the appropriate ending to make us feel really good. Go see it..I will be seeing it again.
