I aslo saw it last night, and it's very funny. Definitely worth watching. They've maybe tried to run slightly too many ideas in it, but overall much better than the slush you might be expecting.

I absolutely loved this... the casting was especially clever! You expect it to be soppy in most places, and it is... but it is also very clever, warming and funny

I particularly liked the Ant or Dec comment

I saw it last night. Admittedly it was the g/f's choice, not mine - but I did thoroughly enjoy it.

saw this last night at enfield, also saw a nice blue sti parked near me, was very funny, expected this to be another chick flick that i would slate each time the gf wants to got see a film of her choosing.

hugh grant made me chuckle, think the lobster and octopus kiddies scene was hillarious. As mentioned above, some nice nipple action too. good film

Also, definately getting a thing for keira knightly, mmmmmmmmmmmmm

Are there:

Car chases?
Explosions?
A kidnap plot?
At least one scene at a working mens club/lap dance bar?

If the answers no to any or all of the above then we aint going!

I am in total agreement. My girlfriend wanted to see it, I was expecting it to be total toss, but I was totally wrong, very good film, and highly recommend it.
