As a pleasant dose of holiday cheer, The Holiday is a lovable love story with all the Christmas trimmings. In the capable hands of writer-director Nancy Meyers (making her first romantic comedy since Something's Gotta Give), it all begins when two successful yet unhappy women connect through a home-swapping website, and decide to trade houses for the Christmas holiday in a mutual effort to forget their man troubles. Iris (Kate Winslet) is a London-based journalist who lives in a picture-postcard cottage in Surrey, and Amanda (Cameron Diaz) owns a movie-trailer production company (leading her to cutely imagine most of her life as a "coming attraction") and lives in a posh mansion in Beverly Hills. Iris is heartbroken from unrequited love with a cad of a colleague (Rufus Sewell), and Amanda has just broken up with her cheating boyfriend (Edward Burns), so their home-swapping offers mutual downtime to reassess their love lives. This being a Nancy Meyers movie (where everything is fabulously decorated and romantic wish-fulfillment is virtually guaranteed), Amanda hooks up with Iris's charming brother Graham (Jude Law), and Iris is unexpectedly smitten with Miles (Jack Black), a super-nice film composer on the downside of a failing relationship. --Jeff Shannon

The acting is top notch, and I don't often find myself thinking that about Cameron Diaz or Jack Black (sorry!) Perhaps it's the outstanding script and direction of Nancy Meyers that brings out the best ... Read More

Cute, typical, predictable romantic comedy. Enjoyed most of it, Cameron Diaz tends to be a little over the top, but other than that the characters are well played and lovable. However, it appears the writers had no idea how to end it, so the ending makes absolutely no sense and is just a bunch of people dancing around.

Normally I run (screaming) from chick flicks (not to mention romcoms), but when a film appears featuring the charismatic talent (not to mention physically stunning) of Kate Winslet, it also commands my undivided attention. So I sat through THE HOLIDAY and grimaced and twitched; when it was over I wanted to have a good cry and bake a cake and call my grandmother. Actually I wanted to do none of the above, but I did feel some considerable estrogen exposure.
THE HOLIDAY features two professional ... Read More
