Total Film
The pitch-perfect profanity, bumbling romanticism and Hugh Grant's floppy-fringed charm remain enduringly, endearingly funny.

A British comedy that's classy and commercial -- and, most important, very, very funny.

Is as good as its word, breezily following a small circle of friends through every one of the events the title promises.
