I hate Renee, but I love Ewan. Decisions, decisions.

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

I'm going to see it - especially since Ewan is in it

But my local theater isn't showing it this week, because they have that Matrix thing on SIX screens

I read an interesting article today about the costumes-they aren't vintage, they were all created especially for the movie. The reviewer gave it three stars out of four, but wasn't too keen on Renee's performance for some reason..

It looks so different from anything that's out there right now, and I try to see movies like that.

 

[HelloAngel]

I'm only going to see it to get interior decorating ideas.

The movie is not on my movie going radar. And my wife has no interest - so that pretty much says it all.

 

[~LadyLemon~]

Id like to see it... Ilike Ewan and Renee...and the whole 60s thing looks pretty cool.

Renee needs to go away!! and it's not one of those movies I'd like to watch...so I don't think so!

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

i'm going to see it tomorrow! i can report how it is.

don't like all the renee bashing though.

 

[browneyedgirl]

I'm seing it tomorrow nite....... Ewan, and I could never say a harsh word about the woman who played Bridget Jones.....

 

[*BOOMCHAA!*]

I want to see it

 

[sulawesigirl4]

I too am interested in it. I love old movies and this seems to be a take on them. And Ewan McGregor.

 

[tiny dancer]

I want to see it

Me too!

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

I'm not a fan of either of the two leads, but I suppose it'd be a nice way to spend a weekend.

I saw it today and it pretty much fulfilled all my expectations. First, I love all the Doris Day movies Down With Love was inspired by and it was so fun to see the clothes and the houses and all that. Ewan is fabulous, he is so adorable and cheeky and does everything with this winking, tongue-in-cheek thing. Renee is not fabulous, she's trying too hard to be cute and sexy yet demure, her speaking voice is too breathy and she does this weird swishy walk thing that's really annoying. The story has a few holes and there's this one way too long, over-the-top exposition scene, but overall it's cute and not a bad way to spend a couple of hours. David Hyde Pierce is great in all his scenes, must give him props for stepping into Tony Randall's awkward shoes. Oh, and Ewan's shirtless and in boxers quite a bit, so that's a definite plus. Renee's and Sarah Paulson's clothes are too die for, wish Renee would stop starving herself though (that's probably a discussion for another time, another thread).

I hate renee..but my love my Ewan far excedes my hate for renee. I want to see it so bad! I have to go like 20 miles away to see it cause my theater doesn't have it. Damn matrix, x-2.... I went to the down with love site and explored it thoroughly and have been antisipating this movie for a long time!!

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

i saw it last night and loved it. the plotline was rather interesting. it had a predictable ending, but how it gets there is what's interesting.

also, i looooved the 60s everything in the movie. the sets, the clothes...

 

[HelloAngel]

I saw it today. It was "cute." I'm not really one for romantic-comedies, so I don't think I would have a valid synthesis of the duo's dynamics, but the set designs were absolutely awesome.

 

[Kariann]

I'll probably end up seeing it with my mom. I'm kind of curious to see the set designs and costumes and I do like Ewan. Renee is ok but not a favorite.

 

[Bono's shades]

I don't like most romantic comedies, but I love Ewan McGregor. I will probably see this movie eventually - either as a rental or on cable.
