A great romantic comedy

Even though it tends to be underrated nowadays, it was actually pretty huge when it was released. If I recall it correctly, I even saw it a couple of times in the theater, once in French and than once again in English with subtitles. In my opinion, it is just a really awesome flick, it is probably my favorite romantic comedy ever and I have seen many romantic comedies, trust me. Anyway, thanks to this flick, Hugh Grant was able to reach stardom. I think he was just awesome in this movie and so was the rest of the cast, especially Andie McDowell and Kristin Scott-Thomas. Basically, it just has the perfect doses of humor and romance and it never goes for the cheap jokes. Furthermore, most of characters were very well written which was a major difference compared to your standard romantic comedy. Indeed, in this genre, the characters are usually not really believable, their actions are really plot-driven and, as a result, I usually don't care about them and what they are going through. Not here. Most of the characters were witty, funny and felt real and it made the whole thing so much more fun to watch. To conclude, it is a great classic and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
