Good beginning, nice transitions but McDowell...? Who doesn't hate her? Really? Who can say that they don't even slightly utterly detest her.
It wasn't bad as Romantic comedies go, anyone who knows me knows there are some days i just want to sit and smile, Four Weddings and Funeral satisfied me up to a point but Mc Dowells character was evil there isn't much to smile at when it comes to the ending.
As i said, good beginning, good opening line, won't say what it is, i'm not allowed to swear. But The first groan has to come when Hugh Grant starts talking, properly talking. He can act up to a point can't he? But he only really knows one character. Yes, he's good at smiling, brushing back his hair and laughing nervously but not much else. If what your looking for is a typical Grant character you won't be disappointed.
but i'm afraid i started to lose interest when he started falling for McDowell's character who's name i can't remember. The whole thing goes downhill from there as you start to wonder what the point is, we all know he'll end up with her in the end which is something you can only groan at so why bother seeing it through.
I wanted to know who was going to die but after that i thought i'd probably switch over. I was disappointed when it turned out to be Callow whose character i'd actually taken quite a liking to. But i had to watch it to the end anyway, I wanted to see what became of some of the minor and far more likable characters.
I was quite please when he was about to marry that weird one whose name i also can't remember. Then McDowell turns up at his wedding to take him away, evil!!! How can he like her? why??? She's just... evil! The ending was everything i expected and less. Less because of that awful line i used in the title. Who wouldn't cringe at that? It's almost as bad as 'sophie, your hairs the colour of starlight' (quote from 'Howl's Moving Castle' (film, not book, book is brilliant, read the book). Almost.
When i watch a romantic comedy i want to smile at the end, I didn't smile at the end of this, simple as.
