One of my favorites!
This movie makes me wanna cry. I love the actors and Black Jack is totally different in this movie. Worth to watch with boyfriend or husband, haha.

Romantic Comedy Movie
Happy music and a happy, feel good movie (Director, Nancy Meyers) (Music by Hans Zimmer). When I need a romantic comedy pick-me-up, I also reach for Love Actually, Wedding Date, You've Got Mail, Walk in the Clouds, Must Love Dogs, Mamma Mia...

Predictable chick flick
Amanda Woods (Cameron Diaz) is a Hollywood producer who's just gotten her heart broken; Iris Simkins (Kate Winslet) lives in England and is also at the losing end of a romance. Both ladies are miserable and decide to get away from home for Christmas. They find each other on an online house-switch site and before you can say "I know how this is going to end!" Amanda is living in a cozy English cottage and Iris is ensconced in a luxurious LA mansion. And you'll never guess what happens next. (Okay, you will guess - in about half a minute.)

Diaz, Winslet, and co-stars Jude Law and Jack Black are all fine here, looking beautiful and clever and giving sincere performances. It's not their fault that the script is so predictable and corny with no room for WHY these new loves blossom so quickly, so blissfully, and so conveniently, considering the women are emotionally wounded and would need some time to heal and the men are not looking for relationships. And what exactly are the odds of meeting your dream mate within hours of moving to a foreign country? Eli Wallach gives a winning performance as a doddering old scriptwriter befriended by Iris, but again, it's all too perfect; there's no question that they will become instant buddies and that their lives will both be enriched by their friendship.

If I were a woman in the 18-26 target group, I'd probably love this movie and even shed a few tears at it; as it is, I just kept thinking, "Well, there's five hours of my life I'll never get back." (What? It's only 136 minutes? Impossible! I thought it would never end.)

Warm cocoa will flow through your veins watching this
If you are an "Under The Tuscan Sun" fan you'll want to add this one to your chick flick collection. It gets better and better with each viewing (great to watch in bed, especially if you are an insomniac). Nancy Meyers is just a genius at adding the perfect complimentary music to her films. There's an atmosphere to the whole thing. If only to watch the brilliant, BRILLIANT Kate Winslet act, you should get it. First time I saw the movie I thought Diaz was a little broad but the more I watch it the more I am impressed by her and appreciate her comedic talents. Jude Law, yummy. Not sure why Meyers cast Jack Black, but he delivers. This DVD is a no brainer to buy if you have even the slightest hint of a romantic bone in your body.

This one made me cry
Have you ever had a moment in your life where things have dramatically changed? And you didn't know how you were going to pick yourself up? Well I happened to catch this movie half way through when a relationship literally came to an end. This movie has to be one of the most heart mending movies I've ever seen. Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, and Jack Black are very enjoyable in this. It's so great to see Jack Black in a serious love interest role. If I had never seen this movie, I would've never believed he could pull this off. This movie will warm your heart no matter where you are in life.
