Funny movie, Heart warming, Human .

Rating: 8/10 (1 April 2008)

Simon Pegg has established himself as a very capable screen writer, comic actor, but now adds a depth of tenderness and compassion to his body of work. Compares favorably to James Woods, in scope and screen ability.
Dennis(Simon Pegg), engaged to Libby(Thandie Newton), gets froze toes , literally, minutes before the wedding ceremony, bolts out the window, leaving his pregnant fiancé', crying in the street.
A few years later, and Dennis is now a security agent in a woman's clothing store in London, and going nowhere. Libby, trying to reestablish her life, meets and is wooed by Whit(Hank Azaria) , who is more than a match to defeat Dennis, for the attentions of Libby.
David Schwimmer ably directs this light hearted romp of human emotions with a gentle touch, allowing the emotions and scenes to develop nicely and move on to the the next, in a smooth orderly fashion. Good Job !!!
Thaddie Newton sparkles and is delightful as the jilted girlfriend ,who runs a pastry shop, and devotes the rest of her time to her young son.
Plenty of secondary actors to fill in the gaps, including Cousin Gordon (Dylan Moran) , whose casual view of life is interesting, and funny , maybe crude. The ending is realistic and touching and completes the film ! Enjoy ! It is an 8 . Not for Super High moments ,but for a steady run of Real Human Emotions .
