5 stars (Exceptional) Lovely story; very witty script. Miraculous acting & great cinematography. Directed by Spanish isabel Coixet, one of the world's greatest directors today. Watch her other movies too; but you will love this, its really perfect! ~Sandy
3 stars (Good Enough) Mortimer, Nighy, and Clarkson is a very appealing cast. The screenplay is fine. ~Tubbs
