Nine intertwined stories examine the complexities of the one emotion that connects us all: love. Among the characters explored are David (Hugh Grant), the handsome newly elected British prime minister who falls for a young junior staffer (Martine McCutcheon), Sarah (Laura Linney), a graphic designer whose devotion to her mentally ill brother complicates her love life, and Harry (Alan Rickman), a married man tempted by his attractive new secretary.

Critics Consensus

A sugary tale overstuffed with too many stories. Still, the cast charms.

A cringe 10 for the price of one bulk holiday sale of the most well-worn rom-com tropes.

AV Club

Love Actually provides enough happy endings to make the audience forget that romance and Christmas miracles don't always work out.

The tagline for Love Actually is "The Ultimate Romantic Comedy." Perhaps. But not in the sense the producers intended.

Film Inquiry

Set to the backdrop of Christmas, Love Actually finds believability in the unbelievable, crafting an environment where anything can happen and the greatest risks should be taken.

The film is all but stolen... by Bill Nighy as a washed up rock star goofing his way through his holiday TV and radio appearances as his seasonal song climbs the charts.

... Curtis and company remind us that love, actually, is everywhere no matter the time of year, period, or place. That’s what helps make it a staple watch this and any other time of year.

Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/14/21 Full Review Average P This one has suffered a bit of a backlash. It's still one of Richard Curtis' best. Second only to Four Weddings, and better in my opinion, than Notting Hill. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/23/24 Full Review Read all reviews
