peter
in his review in "the new york times", a. o. scott called it "a romantic comedy swollen to the length of an oscar-trawling epic – nearly two and a quarter hours of cheekiness, diffidence and high-tone smirking" and added, "it is more like a record label's greatest-hits compilation or a "very special" sitcom clip-reel show than an actual movie. ... the film's governing idea of love is both shallow and dishonest, and its sweet, chipper demeanor masks a sour cynicism about human emotions that is all the more sleazy for remaining unacknowledged. it has the calloused, leering soul of an early-60's rat-pack comedy, but without the suave, seductive bravado. ... it is disturbing to see [emma] thompson's range and subtlety so shamelessly trashed, and to see laura linney's intelligence similarly abused as a lonely, frustrated do-gooder. the fate of their characters suggests that women who are not young, pert secretaries or household workers have no real hope of sexual fulfillment and can find only a compromised, damaged form of love." in "rolling stone", peter travers rated it two stars out of a possible four, saying "there are laughs laced with feeling here, but the deft screenwriter richard curtis dilutes the impact by tossing in more and more stories. as a director ... curtis can't seem to rein in his writer. ... he ladles sugar over the eager-to-please love actually to make it go down easy, forgetting that sometimes it just makes you gag."
