The epitome of evil

Rating: Null/10 (27 February 2001)

I wish this film would disappear off the face of the earth. It epitomizes everything that is loathesome about cinema, and in particular, English-ness in film. The usual stereo-typed English traits that appeal to Americans can be found here along with god awful dialogue "I'm just a girl asking a boy to love her". Not to mention Ronan Keating's truly sickening song that crops up at the most cheesey moments in the film. And as for Julia Roberts and her annoying grin I nearly destroyed my television. Can you just imagine for a moment the makers of this movie getting emotional and congratulating themselves on the great romantic masterpiece they had just made when they finished Notting Hill? If I was there I don't think I would be able to stop throwing up. I wish I could erase this wretched movie from my mind as easily as I could erase the film from the tape.
