Deliciously good.

Rating: 10/10 (20 August 2007)

I really wish I could help raise this movie's grade with my 10/10 vote - in fact after I finish commenting it I'm gonna take a look if it made any difference whatsoever(...) This is one of the most surprising movies I've watched in a loooong time. First of all, I wouldn't expect Will Ferrel to be the protagonist of such a fine thing - and I usually think that too many good actors in just one movie (Dustin Hoffman + Emma Thompson + Maggie Gyllenhaal) doesn't really mean a positive thing (could be the sign of weak story, that is). But I just watched it, it's like 8.55 in the morning and I'm actually still listening to the song that plays while the final credits scroll by. It's the very first movie I comment here and I don't feel like getting into the details of the story - that's what the plot outline is there for. Just tell you this: if you feel like watching a movie and having the (strangest) feeling of having just watched a thing well-done, from start to finish, with actors that seemed to be born for their characters, great great soundtrack, and a magnificent, delicious story, then go for this one. Can do no wrong.
