movie review - Notting Hill
the journal of Michael Werneburg
twenty-eight years and a million words
Sydney, 2000.03.15
This is a quiet flick about an American movie star and the Englishman she meets while shopping for books in a small district of London. It's a trifle slow, but is amusing and remains reasonably intelligent while aiming to entertain. It's paint-by-numbers rom-com for Gen X, I guess. I honestly have nothing else to say. If your gal wants to see this, let it happen.
Recommended.
