Quite enjoyable. The actors were all great and the film itself was lighthearted fun.

B+

Somehow I saw this in theatres and liked it very much. Reece Witherspoon, Rupert Everrett and Firth all give good performances.

Grade: B

You know...it could have been better. The main problem here is that the movie tries too hard to come across as incredibly witty and clever and that ends up as rather artificial. Only in the final quarter of the film, it began to become hilarious and overly amusing. That said, the cast is splendid (especially Rupert Everett seems to be enjoying himself in the role) and the film is amusing and light.
