A great story from Ben Elton and the movie is quite quirky, very British. I still always laugh when joely gets on the bike, but all in all petty badly made.
An awful film with awful acting - turned it off after 40 mins - it was just the same thing over & over!
This movie was actually a dissapointment. Considering the talent involved, the humor was just not there
Hugh, Emma, Rowan - they all were wonderful in this film. I actually read the book by Elton and he must be one of the funniest people an earth.
Ben Elton kind of discovered Laurie as the romantic lead.

Remembered that i caught this movie when it first came out in 2000 with a date.....didnt see him again after this movie......now when i think about it....he might have thought i was hinting at havin babies with him or sumthin.........stupid boy! I bet he still is.......
This was better than I thought it would be, funny and dealt with a few issues - you could definitely tell it was a Ben Elton story. Plenty of good British actors, pretty decent all in all.
Critic Reviews
The problem with this romantic comedy is that although it eventually winds its way to a conclusion that feels right, it takes too many convoluted steps to get there.full review
