    So last night me and hubby got round to watching Love Actually for the first time . Seemingly everyone says that it's a must see Christmas film , people watch it numerous times .

    Sorry to say l was underwhelmed and won't bother watching it again. I should add that hubby quite enjoyed it .

    So have any of you had an experience of feeling disappointed by an experience that had been hyped up by other people? A film , book , play or song maybe .

    Yeah, I felt like that the first time I watched Avatar (2009).

    I've recently posted a half-assed review of the Avatar sequel on this forum.

    I saw the first Avatar, don’t care to see the second.

    We watched Love Actually last night (it won out over Christmas Vacation). Years since we’ve seen it. I’d still rate it “above average” Hugh Grant seems like a guy that would be great to go grab a beer with.

    Re: recent new flicks— I’d recommend “Elvis”.

    There must be very little talent remaining in Hollywood.

    Haven't seen Love Actually, but thanks for the heads up

    In the same vein: A female coworker recommended The Notebook (2004) as a good movie to watch with my wife. We both thought it was insipid.

    On the flip side of the coin, we recently watched the movie Delicious. (2021) I was prepared to hate it, but ended up thoroughly enjoying it.

    TD l should say that l seem to be the only person in the world that doesn't think that Love Actually isn't brilliant. My husband liked it . So please don't be put off by me
