I got shanghaied into this picture on the strngth of Renee 
Zellweger's performance in "Chicago".  What a surprise!  She had done 
a DeNiro, a la "Raging Bull".    Totlly apart from her bulk, I found 
her clingingness and insecurity a complete turnoff, and it destroyed 
any believability in Colin Firth's attraction to her, as far as I was 
concerned.

I did like that they kept Hugh Grant an unreconstructed bastard, with 
no redemption at the end-- sort of like Draco Malfoy :-)
