I'm not sorry I watched "Love Actually." There are some scenes I really enjoy remembering. And Hugh Grant was as endearing as ever, even in a story with very, very little plot.
Did have two problems with the film. It hangs together very, very loosely. It takes a long time to find out how all the people are related, why they're all in this film. The film has a theme really, rather than a plot.
One of the subplots, if you can call it that, involves two people meeting at what are apparently pornography shoots. (My innocence is showing, since I'm not positive about this.) Anyway, it's supposed to be funny because they're chatting about this and that while they're supposed to be doing various sex things. It's a little funny, but not THAT funny. And it's pretty disgusting too, which cancels out quite a lot of the amusement.
We've seen films much worse than this. It does have its good points. The actors and actresses are some of Britain's best. It's fairly fun. So I'll give it 2 stars.
