It's just about the perfect movie (if you like that sort of thing)!!...
Hugh Grant plays himself, the casting is superb and the dialogue from Richard Curtis, with Mike Newell's as Director... outstanding!!
The premise is we follow Charles and his friends as they track through that time when every Saturday seems to be a Wedding you're running late for... Their frequency, the gift travails and all the ups and downs cause reflection about what love is and how you "know..."
The humour, gritty reality when all is not well and the cameos and jokes are all great... if you like British comedy this is a stellar effort!!
The bonus is the Funeral evokes Good Friday/Easter with Auden's wonderfully evocative words! The interplay offers some great one liners and no 'first wedding' Clergy is safe from unusual names or the 'Father, Son and Holy Goat'!!
Charles' attempts to break out of his 'oh so British' politeness and inability to express his feelings and "that thing about the Beatles" is great!! The cringeworthy moments are done perfectly!!
