This was a really good, light hearted movie, with GREATcharacterization. There are points where the movie is a little slow,but not slow enough to loose your interest.

All of thecharacters are wonderfully developed especially Jude Laws-theunder-story of Jude's character adds an extra dimension to hischaracter and really makes you love him all the more.

KateWinslet's character is another that was well worked out. She helps outthis little old man . . . and the character development between her andthis older gentleman is wonderful . . . it adds so much to hercharacter, makes her more human, more real, someone very likable andsomeone you want to end up with a good ending.

Jack Black'scharacter was sweet, not corny . . . and you end up liking him verymuch. He was not a goober like he usually is in his movies.

Overall, it was a wonderfully character driven movie, that was enjoyableand had you leaving the theater feeling good. I recommend it highly!
