The title and picture cover for this film does not do it any justice, I thought the film was going to be really drab because of this them. However I was pleasantly surprised, we all really enjoyed the film. 6/10

How strange! Tonight's 6,30pm screening at Ocean Terminal, Edinburgh was delayed until 7.50pm. No suggestion as to what you are supposed to do for 1 1/2 hours while waiting for film. Very poor.

Saw a second viewing of this, as took my mum last week at Clapham Picturehouse. Still enjoyed it a second time. Perfect film for a Sunday morning and another chance to swoon over Ewan. Forgot to mention in my previous review, how much KST reminded me of Edwina Currie! She clearly enjoyed it, and should do more comedy roles. 10/10

I thought Kristin Scott Thomas was pretty good (very funny, she does droll better than almost anyone) but I found the rest of it a bit too cheesy for me.
