If you want a classic romantic film, this might not be the film for you. It snap-shots the important events leading to the resolution of the couples involved, nothing more. If you're looking for a full-length story, this is not the film for you. You'd think it wouldn't, I know I certainly didn't. Many different kinds of love are covered (although not all kinds), there's 8 storylines and the biggest cast list I've seen in a long time. By the time I reached the end of the film I found myself facing the impossible, there was one romantic comedy out there that genuinely is a comedy and actually likeable. Bill Nighy and Gregor Fischer came on screen, mocking one of the most hated love songs in Britain, "Love is all Around" and I found myself getting sucked into the film. Then the most unbelievably shocking thing happened. And the introductory voice-over by Hugh Grant as we watch an airport full of people hugging made me want to commit an act of violence - either against the people who forced me to watch this film or against myself just to end the torture. Romantic comedies make me cringe and I avoid them like the plague so you can imagine the foul mood I was in when I was forced to watch this film.
You can list the actors I avoid watching: Hugh Grant, Sandra Bullock, Richard Gere, Julia Roberts.
