A sugary tale overstuffed with too many stories. Still, the cast charms.

Radheyan Simonpillai CBC Radio A cringe 10 for the price of one bulk holiday sale of the most well-worn rom-com tropes. Dec 11, 2023 Full Review Scott Tobias AV Club Love Actually provides enough happy endings to make the audience forget that romance and Christmas miracles don't always work out. Nov 5, 2019 Full Review Christopher Orr The Atlantic The tagline for Love Actually is "The Ultimate Romantic Comedy." Perhaps. But not in the sense the producers intended. Nov 5, 2019 Full Review Stephanie Archer Film Inquiry Set to the backdrop of Christmas, Love Actually finds believability in the unbelievable, crafting an environment where anything can happen and the greatest risks should be taken. Jan 12, 2024 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand The film is all but stolen... by Bill Nighy as a washed up rock star goofing his way through his holiday TV and radio appearances as his seasonal song climbs the charts. Jan 6, 2024 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness ... Curtis and company remind us that love, actually, is everywhere no matter the time of year, period, or place. That’s what helps make it a staple watch this and any other time of year. Dec 14, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

T This always gives me good feels! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/04/22 Full Review Susan R Love everything about it except the porn filming scenes.. never understood why that was necessary. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/07/22 Full Review Angel One of the best feel good movies ever! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/14/21 Full Review Tal One of my Wifes favorite movies! I wish yall would play these films more than twice a week. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/14/21 Full Review Brian A favorite of my wife and myself, never tire of seeing it! absolutely fantastic! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/14/21 Full Review jenna b. f Love Actually is actually a total piece of garbage, especially because it has a star cast. Why in heaven's name did they agree to be in this lame, imbecilic mess ?! It is one of the most embarrassing things I’ve ever seen. I needed a hot cleansing bath afterwards to wash away any residual damage this film did to psyche and soul. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/25/24 Full Review Read all reviews
