Love Actually (2003)

 What a complete waste of time!!
My husband and I both hated this movie! There were way too many story lines pushed into a 2.5 hour movie. It was confusing trying to keep track of them all.
And the porn couple? A completely unneccesary story line! Are we to beleive that a couple who are completely naked around each other and have simulated sex are actually shy with each other and fall in love? Oh please. I couldn't have cared any less about them. They should have been left out of the movie entirely.
There was not enough depth given to ANY story line, and therefore, most of the movie was unbelievable. It wasn't a love story at all. It definitely wasn't a "feel good" movie that "warms your heart" like some reviewers have said. Nothing like we expected.
Another thing that was annoying was the music. At times, it was very out of place. It was as if they tried to put every great Christmas song in the movie, and it didn't all fit. At times it was too noisy and you couldn't hear them talking because of it.
One story line they didn't even finish. We just never saw the couple again!
If I could have given this movie 1/2 a star, I would have. The most unenjoyable movie I've seen in years. Completely horrible and a waste of time. May 4, 2008

 Even my manly husband liked it.
I can't stand most chic flicks. I hate saying outloud to the characters in a movie "why don'y you just say/do {insert logical suggestion here}". What I love about this movie is that it is sweet and sappy but not in a manner that makes me want to shove my finger down my throat afterward. The film takes a look at several different angles we see every day in relationships and not all of them are happy nor are all of them ever resolved. The humanity included, however, is what appeals to me most.

Unlike critics who see this film as a dramatization of commercial Christmas at its worst combined with weak writing, I see several fun, imaginative, (even if not believable) and witty dramas tied up in a nifty little package. I love the dry humor and the music is thoughtful and appropriate. April 30, 2008

 Infatuation Actually
Well I just saw this movie after having heard gazillions of times how good this movie is. I have to agree its one of those movies which gives you a warm feeling about being in love. However is the topic really love or infatuation here. The better name I think would be "Infatuation Actually " :) April 25, 2008

 Great Condition and Great Movie
One of my favorite movies so I bought this for a friend for Christmas and she loves it! Great quality and good price. I highly recommend this movie/product! April 17, 2008

 All kinds of love
This winning film starts out with the premise that, contrary to popular belief, the world is full of love, not hatred. By watching the lives of 8 different pairs of people in London, England, some of the many different types of love are explored. There's platonic, seen in the relationship of an aging rock star and his manager, and puppy love, as a young boy develops a crush on a classmate. There's unrequited, when Mark's best friend marries the woman he wants for himself, and the specter of infidelity, when a husband's eye is caught by his secretary. Throw in a couple of cases of loving from a distance, and a junket to Milwaukee to hook up with some of those hot American girls, and there's all sorts of mistakes and magic going on. The finale, though relying heavily on coincidence, is fascinating as all the main characters are brought together at a school Christmas pageant. No deep philosophy here, just good, engaging entertainment provided by a stellar cast and witty director/writer. A bit too racy for children. April 16, 2008
