I'd seen it before but just watched it again last night and it completely holds up.

If you're looking for a good Christmas movie to watch with your girl, this is it. I bet she'll even let you stuff her stocking afterwards.

Romantic comedies are generally crap but there are a handful that men can enjoy and this one is high on that list.

It's not for small children though. There's a little sex, nudity and adult humor
 
Agreed—it’s a great Christmas movie. My wife and I usually watch it every year. It’s nice junk food where you can just turn your brain off and enjoy the pretty girls and light-hearted humor. In the past I never really thought too much about the plot line with the Walking Dead guy, but if you stopped to think about it for a second the part where he exclusively records close ups of Keira Knightley at her wedding is absurdly creepy.

I would expect a dude like that to have a collection of stolen used panties.

Also, the part where Hugh Grant owns the US president gives me a vengeance boner.
 
Minus the fact Rick Grimes is a terrible best friend and Keira Knightley is a minor

I enjoyed the Hugh/Leslie/Porno storylines but the Rick Grimes storyline brings it down for me.
KK was 18 when the movie came out.
 
second the part where he exclusively records close ups of Keira Knightley at her wedding is absurdly creepy.

He's a terrible best friend along with being creepy. Hitting on your best friends wife while he's inside is as low as it gets

Keira told the director it was creepy while they were filming and he ignored her
 
Has that thing a lot of these "light hearted" comedies have (see Friends, Wedding Crashers etc), in that it's okay to watch in a bland kinda way, then when you think about it, you realise that 80% of the characters are selfish, narcissistic, arseholes.
 
You should have seen the sequel where the women all file metoo civil claims against all the guys trying to bang their underlings. The one dude got a trafficker to bring him a maid who didn't speak English for him to try to bang, the prime minister trying to plow his interns, the old pop star who gay banged his assistant, Alan Rickman cheating on his wife with the office whore, or the Ted Bundy who was trying to film jerk off material of his buddy's wife who was 17, and probably set up toilet cams in their house. Christ, the most wholesome story was the perv who was looking to bang anything that moved and had to travel to find obvious prostitutes.

this is what i have said here for years.

it is single handedly the greatest christmas movie of all time.

i watch it every year at christmas time and i saw it two times in the theatres when it was released.
 
I liked it quite a bit. One of the first "British" films I got into (besides Bond, of course.)
 
It’s right up there with one of the GOAT Christmas film casts as well. I love the film, I can honestly watch it whenever with no ragretz
 
Definitley not a kids movie. Like 15 min in and it goes all soft core porn for a minute or 2.

Like when my uncle rented me Cinderella when I was 7. It was not a kids movie in any way - I enjoyed it till mom walked in n saw all the boobs. Yeah there was a fight that night with my uncle.
