Love actually
As regards the subject of love, however, the movie was more disappointing. I had expected the 'love' to be shallow, but it was worse than even that. The beginning raised my hopes with a look at some moving reunion scenes at Heathrow Airport between all kinds of different people. It made you feel the film might be going a bit deeper. But no. Out of about nine intermingled tales, one is only about sex, and four others are merely romantic attraction between people who barely know each other.

Not love, actually
LOVE ACTUALLY Cert. 15 Universal Studios
Love Actually actually has very little to do with love. My expectations in this regard were pretty low, after all this is Hugh Grant in a typical romantic comedy. I did expect the movie to be humorous and entertaining, as well as replete with bad language and an objectionable level of sexually explicit material. It lived up to both these positive and negative expectations.
