strangely, I feel it not bad, even a little better than 'what a girl wants'. WAGW is totally a teen movie and I was obviously out of that period long time ago.
Okay, I admit Heather Graham isn't good enough, but I do like the performance of Minnie Driver and, of course, Colin. I watched 'circle of friends' before. It also stars both Minnie and Colin (a small part tho) and Minnie's work in COF didn't strike me. But she plays Vera very well here. I guess it's the role that makes a difference. She dosen't look like an innocent teenager so didn't fit in COF well enough. But in HS, as a mature sophisticated and even mean woman, Minnie played it to full. BTW, Colin's scarf dance is lovely. :)
This movie is good for nothing and ridiculous. Even worse than those meaningless movies of Hugh Grant.
Why Why Why he fell in love with this idiotic girl for no reason?

新英格兰的美丽风景，金色的树林和落叶；小镇上的怪人，其实不怪啊，偏远小镇的通病，好探人隐私，也热心助人，一个外来客，瞬间底细被揭穿，连不穿内裤都无人不知、无人不晓。
还有那个未婚妻，对了，是前未婚妻，自然鼓的腮，像青蛙，怎么看怎么眼熟，但就是想不起来。一查原来是电影版《歌剧魅影》里的卡洛塔，难怪想不起来，因为那里她的口音太奇怪了。这里她又是一口英音，怎么都联系不起来。不过后来穿上小镇王后的服装，神气十足的卡洛塔复活了。
故事流畅、节奏轻快、笑料频出、出其不意、表演出色、画面精美，柯林卖萌，真真是难得的好电影。柯林迷们决不能错过，这是一个你从未看到、但做梦都想见到的柯林。
只能说我是柯林的脑残粉，一辈子就他一个足矣！
很多地方都让人摸不着头脑，比如女主说要带男主去公园，结果没进公园就喝上了，然后回到旅馆的行为就更加莫名奇妙。还有男主连夜赶画市长的肖像，结果换来的市长承诺却无疾而终，我本来以为此处会是全片高潮的，原来却是从此处开始一平到底。
PS：费雪夫妇倒是很可爱。
