The Holiday

Review:
Starring; Cameron Diaz, Jude Law, Kate Winslet and Jack Black
There haven’t been that many decent romantic comedies with a holiday theme in recent years, so when one comes along that’s adorable, entertaining, and requires absolutely no brain power to enjoy, it’s tough to pass it up…
A few weeks back, I settled down on my couch, with some chocolate (of course, every woman has to have chocolate watching a good movie)
I’ve never found Jude Law attractive – until now………..
Wow, seeing him in this movie really blew me away!
Amanda (Cameron Diaz) lives in an exclusive neighborhood in Los Angeles and owns a hugely successful company that puts together trailers for movies. Iris (Kate Winslet) lives in a small community outside of London and works as a wedding columnist for the Daily Telegraph. Both ladies are fresh out of troubled relationships and heading into the holiday season without much to look forward to.
On impulse, workaholic Amanda decides to get away from it all. An online ad promoting house-swapping catches her eye and after exchanging instant messages with Iris, the two decide to really switch things up by swapping lives for a couple of weeks.
This is must see… after it ended, I just hit play again and watched it all over again..
My rating: 10/10
