More wooden than Epping Forest - By: Rich, 21 Oct 2007 
Very entertaining stuff, a (mostly) superb cast & an absolutely cracking script.
The whole thing is let down by Andie MacDowell. WHY does this woman get work? She couldn't act if she had a gun to her head. Her delivery of the line "Is it still raining? I hadn't noticed" is so cringemakingly bad it's hilarious. In fact her entire performance is utterly dire. It'd be a 4* film if it had a different female lead. Anyone would do. Lily Savage would have been preferable, reallly.
LAUGH AND CRY - By: Nevs, 19 Sep 2007 
What a great film. The cast gel reallly well & you almost feel like one of the gang as you grow to love them alll.
Hugh Grant is at his bumbling best & it's laughs alll the way. I reallly recommend seeing the film if you haven't already.
Five Stars and a Big Cheer !!! - By: G. Kyriacou, 15 Sep 2007 
Nearly every British film that EVER comes out is always given the title 'BEST BRITISH FILM EVER MADE', it's embarrassing! Imagine if every American film that came out was tagged with 'Best American film ever made', so why do we Brits do it ? Most of the time, they are not the Best British Film Ever made!!! We do make great films but we do not need to put a tag on the film!!
HOWEVER...Four Weddings & a Funeral definately deserves the title of 'One of the Best British films ever made'.
It is so beautifully written. The cast are absolutely brilliant. So many classic funny lines. John Hannah's speech at the funeral is outstanding. Hugh Grant is so loveable. Simon Calllow (loved him in 'Chance in a Million') dancing at the Scottish wedding is so funny. There are so many funny things to mention. When Hugh is stuck in the cupboard whilst the bride & groom are getting 'jiggy' is hilarious!!
I was so sad to hear that Charlotte Coleman (Scarlett) a very talented actress, sadly passed away so young, & I loved her character in the film. I think every Actor/Actress who appeared in the film or anyone involved with this film should be so proud. In the future, people will still be talking about this film. There is nothing fake about it. It's a film about love, its many forms, & how it will find you!!
It's a truly 'feel good factor' film. Richard Curtis put pen to paper & wrote a beautiful classic comedy that will be loved always. Thank you Mr Curtis.
Trite, tiny little film - By: Lou Knee, 01 Sep 2007 
This predictable light romantic comedy, relying on an overglossed upmarket view of romantic England impressing the Yanks was also predictable in the huge success it had. Written by a nob who'd probably sell his granny for the success he craves, (but was never going to have to) it is dire in its simplicity & its lightness. Has nothing at alll about it of the style or uniqueness of Britain's best comedies, romantic or otherwise. It is more a modern misuse of the genre. It was more Harpers & Queen with laughs, it was that self conscious of its image. Its dipping into the working class funeral scene to try & give itself some depth as well just didn't work with me, as it seemed to do with others. It was just so blatantly a 'look at me America' picture, I wanted to knock its perfect teeth out. I'll waste no more words on this trifle.
over rated - By: becky_roberts, 22 May 2007 
watchable but only because of richard curtis's writing & hugh grant being hilarious - per usual
andie whatever her name is terrible - it's the only thing I've seen her in & I think take every scene with her in out of the film (which isn't that many thank God!) it would be a fantastic movie & would get five stars!
