Well, I sat through this immediately after sitting through 'Shall we Dance?' - Now if that isn't a good husband then I don't know what is. Again, I thought I'd hate this movie and I thought it was great...really great. Just an easy light & funny romantic comedy. Yes a bit of a chick flick, but as far as these Brittish romantic films go This could possibly one of the best I've seen. Zellwegger looks much better here (she's a little plump) than she does in recent movies where she so skinny & ugly.
