The Holiday:I laughed. I cried. I awed. My jaw even dropped a couple of times. This
movie surpassed all of my original expectations. At almost two and a
half hours, I thought it might drag on, but I never felt like it was
really that long. This movie is not only about heartbreak and heart
ache, it's about finding yourself and appreciating the true things in
life. I felt that Kate and Cameron did a wonderful job. Their characters
come from two very different worlds yet they both seek the same
thing...escape. They encounter so much more upon arriving at their
destinations, and ultimately end up finding the completely unexpected.
Jude is a star charmer as always, and Jack, well, he's Jack. Seeing this
movie should be on everyone's holiday "to-do" lists, and I can
guarantee it will be in my DVD collection once it is released. Nancy
Meyers hit a home run with this one and it is sure to bring everyone a
nice large dose of holiday spirit.
