Love Actually

[BlueHammer85]

‘Actually‘ thought that was a really nice story.

So one of your best mates knocks on your door - Mrs Moustache answers and his written on A5 notes how much he loves her.

I bet you would find that ‘really nice’

Creepy was probably going overboard but off the top of my head (haven't watched it in years):

Spoiler

- The wedding cameraman's pursuit of his best mates wife.
- Colin Firth wanting to marry the maid despite never having a conversation with her and then her father being okay with what he thinks is selling her into slavery.
- Alan Rickman cheating on his wife with his dodgy secretary.

Don't know whether I need to spoiler that after nearly 20 years.

There's more storylines that I think are bizarrely dressed up as 'romantic'.

I suppose that's my main issue, it being called a romantic holiday classic when it's just not.

Agree about the second two, but thought the best man one wsa about friendship as well as romance. Sometimes, you can’t help who you fall in love with.

Love this film.

He was trying to explain that he loved her, which is why he was so cold with her, but nothing could or would ever happen, because of his friendship with her husband. So, yes if a mate of mine did that I’d see it as a sign of the strength of our friendship, albeit I’d rather not know about it, for reasons of awkwardness.

No idea. Never seen the film. Its for the ladies and not for the likes of real men like me and my husband.

I’d kick his head in!
Bang out of order to do that
And her fella seemed a nice chap

I have huge issues with this film and believe it should be cancelled.

- Hardly any persons of colour in the film
- none of the storylines feature LGBTQ+ couples
- someone flies to USA for the sole purpose of picking up American women in a bar. Er hello, carbon footprint much?

It’s a skidmark on our cultural underpants

Is this a joke aimed at that tit Jeremy Vine ?

Hopefully one day I will be in touch with my feminine side enough to watch it.
I can't imagine I will ever be in touch with my feminine side enough to admit that I watched it.

You've watched it at least twice already haven't you, go on, admit it

 

[Millo]

Worst film ever made

You've obviously not seen "Lost in Translation".
