A difference of opinion. (by The_Slider) |
It seems that with A Life Less Ordinary you either love it or you hate it. Personally I am of the former persuasion, with it being a favourite of mine. I can see were the detractors come from, especially after viewing Boyle & Hodge's previous works. ALLO is in a completely different in style to their previous two films Shallow Grave and Trainspotting. But to say it is the weaker of the three films would be a fallacy. Stylistically the film is excellent - reminding me a lot of a Coen brothers film. The script is spot on and the performances of McGregor and Diaz are both excellent <more> |
One of the best films ever! (by CIKHALLIFAX) |
I only just saw this film, and I think it is one of the best films I've ever seen. I'm doing a study on all my favourite actors, and I'm on Ewan McGregor. When I watched it for the first time I thought it was brilliant. Then I started to think if it was a film worth seeing again. I was bored on that day so I decided to watch it. I still thought it was great so I watched it again the next day. I've seen it three times now and I love it! If you're in to action, romance and comedy and you wish you could see a film with all three, you should really watch this film. And the <more> |
Probably the best romantic comedy ever (by kurciasbezdalas) |
Danny Boyle became my favorite director after I watched this film. It looks like no matter how simple plot may appear, he still can make a masterpiece of it. The humor is pretty weird and subtle and that is what's good about it. It's really unusual film. It's not like other Danny Boyle's works Tainspotting or Shallow Grave but has some similarities. Actually it is even better in it's own way. Ewan McGregor and Cameron Diaz are probably the best film couple in history of cinema or at least it seems like it to me right now . Althau some people may not understand this film <more> |
A pair of angels are not to return to heaven before they've accomplished their mission: to make two people on earth fall in love and stick together. (by caroline-bjurstedt-1) |
Finally, a romantic comedy that is original, intelligent and truly funny. Not to say unpredictable! Usually I dislike this genre, but i can't help loving this movie.The cast is great, and the chemistry between Cameron Diaz and Ewan McGregor is sparkling. And McGregor even manages to look good in spite of a terrible hair cut. What a performance. Holly Hunter is great as usual. Please also notice the appearance of Maurey Chakin as the somewhat odd neighbor. If you happen to recognize him, it could be from "My Cousin Vinny", where he plays the grit-eating witness.This movie has a <more> |
Overlooked Gem! (by a-topping1) |
This film simply does everything right! I stumbled upon it while looking for older Cameron Diaz movies, and have since tried to convert as many friends as possible to its genius! Its story is a slightly off-beat love story, whereby two Celestial Beings are sent down to Earth to unite man and woman in Holy Matromony, but that's not as easy as it might sound! What happens as a result is that Robert McGregor loses his job, home and girlfriend, in fairly quick succession, and so kidnaps his boss' daughter, Celine Diaz . They, rather inevitably, grow closer, and realise that both want a <more> |
A movie hardly ordinary. A great romantic comedy!! (by egonzalez-49-75564) |
A life less ordinary has received many critics from people that simply didn't get it, but this is a happy and well executed movie about love and life with great performances and great humor it is subtle, not for everyone . The theme is full of surprises and it doesn't let you get bored at any time. DannyBoyle is a great director, i like most of his movies, and in this one he got the best out of the cast and the story. It has great pace and you really get involve with them McGregor and Diaz and their love story. Even Holly Hunter, who I don't usually like, is very good. It's <more> |
A Magical Movie (by RNHunter) |
I just love watching movies where I do not expect excellence - and yet there it is. I was very happy with a Life Less Ordinary. It seemed to me to be unique, charming, fun and just a great way to spend some enjoyable time.When a movie gets this enjoyable, I need to ask why. In my opinion in this movie its "casting" was exceptional. And of course one then has to credit directing that puts the cast at their best. Clearly Ewan McGregor and Cameron Diaz can both be characters. Well, this is a movie that puts them at their best, funniest and most charming. The director also brings out <more> |
If You Get It, Its Amazing, If Not, Its Not (by ecwjedi) |
I remember seeing A Life Less Ordinary back in the late 1990s with high expectations as Trainspotting was one, and still is, one of my all time favorite films. What I got was a different film, but not in a bad way. It was fun and very different from anything else that came out around that time. But the funny thing was that after I saw it I kept thinking about it, little things; lines and camera shots that stuck in my head. By the time I watched it again, a week or so later, it was like the film was an old friend. There is a charm in every scene of A Life Less Ordinary and if you are able to <more> |
Nice little Fantasy (by jonathandoe_se7en) |
After the success of Trainspotting 1995 , British filmmaking trio, Danny Boyle, John Hodge & Andrew MacDonald made A Life less Ordinary. The film could not be a more different departure from their previous effort. A Life less Ordinary is a wild and sweat natured romantic fantasy, concerning our hero Robert Ewan McGregor and spoiled rich girl Celine Cameron Diaz and the two angels Hunter & Lindo who are given the task of getting them to fall in love. Boyle uses many great cinematic techniques to make the film seem even more fantastic, and Hodges writing is some of the funniest <more> |
