Amazon.com:With no fewer than eight couples vying for our attention,
Love Actually is like the Boston Marathon of romantic comedies, and everybody wins. Having mastered the genre as the writer of
Four Weddings and a Funeral,
Notting Hill, and
Bridget Jones's Diary, it appears that first-time director Richard Curtis is just like his screenplays: He just wants to be loved, and he'll go to absurdly appealing lengths to win our affection. With
Love Actually, Curtis orchestrates a minor miracle of romantic choreography, guiding a brilliant cast of stars and newcomers as they careen toward love and holiday cheer in London, among them the Prime Minister (Hugh Grant) who's smitten with his caterer; a widower (Liam Neeson) whose young son nurses the ultimate schoolboy crush; a writer (Colin Firth) who falls for his Portuguese housekeeper; a devoted wife and mother (Emma Thompson) coping with her potentially unfaithful husband (Alan Rickman); and a lovelorn American (Laura Linney) who's desperately attracted to a colleague. There's more--too much more--as Curtis wraps his Christmas gift with enough happy endings to sweeten a dozen other movies. That he pulls it off so entertainingly is undeniably impressive; that he does it so shamelessly suggests that his writing fares better with other, less ingratiating directors.

I regret that I missed "Love Actually" at the theater. I'm so glad that I bought the DVD, because it has become one of my favorite movies, and certainly one that I see at least once during the holidays every year. I never tire of it. The music and characters are full, real, and wonderful. It's not all laughs, but it's life affirming.
As charming as it is, "Love Actually" is strictly an ADULT movie, not family fare. It wouldn't be the unique movie it is without the adult scenes and ...

For those of you who think that love is about serving and giving to another, and not about gratifying your own needs - please take my advice and avoid this film.
Aside from one storyline, I detected no real love in any of the plots in this film. There is no time for character development in this mishmash of stories, so the director didn't bother with it and simply jumped to intimacy. I usually love divergent story-line plots, but this movie was a disappointment on all levels. It panders to those ...

very funny and sweet film. Excellent music and hilarious situations. I like watching this film because it helps me renew my faith in humanity.
some of the subplots are a bit extraneous, i think if they had focus on a few of them and developed them, it would have been a tighter film.
One of Hugh Grant's best films. Bill Nighy is a scene stealer.

A love story from all different angles and all perfectly intertwined with humor to top it all off. A stacked cast full of great British actors, Love Actually is a real life (and rather adult, I don't think you would want your children watching this), creatively written Christmas movie. They cover almost every romantic and heart-breaking situation that can occur in an average persons life (well almost average I suppose). From a troubles in a long marriage to happiness in a brand new one. You have a washed ...

This is one of the few chick-flicks I will watch (over and over again). I find it endearing, sad, heart braking, happy, funny, and a little bit confusing. I am not a huge fan of Hugh Grant, but I love him as the prime minister, looking up at the picture of Margaret Thatcher, painfully in love and utter something like this:
"I bet you didn't have problems like these. Of course you did, you saucy minx!"
And who doesn't like his dancing in the hallways of Number 10, Downing Street? ...
