User Comments: 90 out of 111 people found the following comment useful:- A deeply loving film rich in character, 28 November 2004 Author: bzb2001 from Nixa, Missouri It has been a long time since I have seen a movie so rich in character that I did not want it to end. Love Actually is not a love story, it is a story about love. Love that reinvents itself, multiplies itself, opens itself up, and even devastates. I am sure the film has its critics who say it drips in buttery corn. But when you are able to retreat inward and let it take you over, it is impossible not to feel. It is a rare treat - a film that makes you feel. During the process I was sad and happy and relieved. I was turned on, turned off, dizzy and grounded. I was in love one time and it reminded me of that. The power of cinema can be that amazing, it can be that intense. The title of the movie is, perhaps, meant to confuse. Yet I believe it is designed to ask. Love Actually is ... what? Is it lust? Or a deep appreciation of the past? Can it be conquered by language or political barriers? Race? Infidelity? Age? Can it be all of the above plus more? Maybe a mingling of several? It is rare for a film of great acting to be married to a terrific script. Yet it is something else for it to speak right to the audience; not talk at them, not try to sell them a film. Let them experience the film. Let it wash over them little by little until there is nothing more of them left. that was from idmb |

I Love ActuallyFirstly, it's character driven. I love character driven stuff. All the characters are connected in some way, ending up at the airport in the final scene. Romance aside, the movie itself is fun to watch because of the way it paces amongst the characters. And I like the message it gives. For a romantic comedy, it's very satisfying to watch, because it has a lot of realism to it too. I enjoyed it thoroughly. |

This is the movie with Keira Knightly, isn't it? She’s one of my favorite actresses. |

Yes, it has quite a number of well-known actors, most of them British, since that's where it takes place. |

I've seen bits and pieces of it. My sister was obsessed with it for a while. I think we even have it on DVD too. |

I think the ending is the best part ![]() But it is a pretty good film in general. I thought the que cards part was quite sweet. |
