Puh-lease! A contrived ... winking at the camera ... aren't we so cute and funny (NO! You are not) over-long, overwritten, piece of garbargouix. This is a movie for unhappy, lonely housewives who want to get out of their routine marriages.Puh-lease! A contrived ... winking at the camera ... aren't we so cute and funny (NO! You are not) over-long, overwritten, piece of garbargouix. This is a movie for unhappy, lonely housewives who want to get out of their routine marriages. They'll have that affair but they'll realize that the momentary excitement of the bad deed fades and they cut it off ... and they see that the man they married is a good person with flaws, like us all. And then one day they'll be in the shower and they'll find a lump ... and three years later ... it's all done.… Expand

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible. I want that 2 1/2 (!) hours of my life back. Friends whose taste I trust actually recommended this piece I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible. I want that 2 1/2 (!) hours of my life back. Friends whose taste I trust actually recommended this piece of crap to me. Just to start ... I don't think even in America could someone has idiotic as Hugh Grant's character be elected to lead the country. If Laura Linney's character liked her hunky co-worker so much, why the hell didn't she turn off her' cellphone when she finally lured him to her bed? (And her storyline was left hanging.) Why did the subplot with Emma Thompson and Alan Rickman seem to be about humiliating Emma's character? Why did Keira Knightly marry the black guy if she really wanted the other guy? And how convenient that in a huge city like London, all the children iin the story went to the same school. The movie's music was horrible, especially the little girl who was forced to sing like an American Idol reject. Were they going for the absurd when the so-so looking guy went to America and was overwhelmed with attention from prospective Playboy playmates? And the oh-so-cuteness of Colin Firth's character's and the maid's trying to communicate. The porn star body-double couple hardly had a story. But then, the stars of the movie hardly had a story. Hugh Grant's dancing-in-his underwear/"Risky Business" ripoff was unforgivable, as was the misogyny of the middle-aged men ending up with women half their ages who had been their servants.… Expand

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed. I usually check out the customer reviews b/c after Seabiscuit and A Beautiful Mind I realized that I could not trust reviewers any It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed. I usually check out the customer reviews b/c after Seabiscuit and A Beautiful Mind I realized that I could not trust reviewers any more, so I decided to use these user ratings, woops. I feel like this post board for this movie has become a bash-board for whoever Robert Plant is, he did some review I guess. The movie was pretty retarded but I walked out kinda happy, I still feel like I wasted my time. I liked the actors and their stories, even though some of them were really boring and uninteresting. I'm from the UK and I don't see how this movie could've offended some people... I spoke to a crew member on the film and he said that there were many moments where he could hear many cast members or crew members complaining about the character development, I couldn't agree more. It's a dopey, ditsy, light-as-a-feather holiday movie, no more, like a mediocre Christmas Special.… Expand

Watched it again, and this time I realized just how glitzy and poor this film is...Really appealed to my baser instincts when I first watched it....Everything warm and fuzzy at Christmas with a couple of "real" love stories...But beneath theWatched it again, and this time I realized just how glitzy and poor this film is...Really appealed to my baser instincts when I first watched it....Everything warm and fuzzy at Christmas with a couple of "real" love stories...But beneath the coating of Hollywood style slickness, there lurks mediocrity, a lust substitute for love...Firth likes his maid's butt, Rickman loves to ogle his come on sexy secretary, and those were mild examples...A film of mostly male fantasies done in a "cute" simplistic way.....What a waste of talented actors....Liam Neeson was decent....And Linney's story is about love...Beneath the coating of sparkles and sleaze, lurks a mediocre film....Merry Christmas!… Expand

Maybe I'm not english so I missed the jokes - but it was not romantic or comedic. An hour in I was bored to shreds ....

Can't imagine how they convinced so many famous, gifted performers to participate in this moronic, misogynistic, substandard, poorly written, incompetently edited and deeply unfunny movie.

Such a mediocre movie! I can't believe how people say that over and over again over Christmas. So many stereotypes -- gay British rock stars, exotic innocent foreign beauty, messed-up 10 Downing St., foolish American girls completelySuch a mediocre movie! I can't believe how people say that over and over again over Christmas. So many stereotypes -- gay British rock stars, exotic innocent foreign beauty, messed-up 10 Downing St., foolish American girls completely infatuated by a random British guy. By the way how can the only black in this movie cheated on and the only mentally ill guy seem to be a mere burden on family?… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I feel like I've been pranked and that someone switched out a movie with this poor attempt at emotional manipulation.
A tale of cuckolding, betrayal, abuse of power, poor parenting, and much more. This film is just chock full of terrible people doing immoral things with some music and cheesy lines to try and make you feel happy (or sad to contrast the happy).
As a rom-com it fails. As a Xmas movie it fails. If you really want to try enjoy watching it, go in making fun of it.… Expand
