Don't waste your money
Added 9/25/2008
I am a huge Jennifer Love Hewitt fan, but this is not worth your money!!! Since I am a huge fan of hers, I wanted every movie she was in, but I wish I hadn't wasted the money on this one folks...it's just simply not good!!!

Sweet love story, Crappy British Accent
Added 7/18/2007
I hadn't heard of this film, but I am a romantic comedy fiend, so I had to try it. There were funny parts, but it wasn't really a romantic comedy. The love and betrayal part was more on the serious side -- both the attachments and the betrayals are more real than they are comedic.
I like Jennifer Love Hewitt, and I enjoyed the cast of this movie generally. The plot was not incredibly original, but it was cute. And the comedy part was not overdone -- some parts are genuinely funny, rather than bordering on the completely absurd. The only drawback -- JLH does not do a very good accent. I think she might as well have played an American expatriate married to an Englishman. But she plays cute, wronged, and vulnerable well, so otherwise, the character fits her. Don't watch if you expect seriousness or substance, but it you want cute love story, this may do the trick.

"Take Me And Raddish Me"
Added 7/14/2007
The British '04 film `The Truth About Love' stars America's sweetheart Jennifer Love Hewitt masquerading as a Brit in this somewhat jaded drama of love, betrayal and rediscovery is, shall I say it, a bust. To be fair, it isn't Jennifer fault, I thought she did quite well overall, she looks great as always and demonstrated the ability and range to do more than just light comedy. I hope she'll get the opportunity to act in more serious roles in a good production in the near future.
I'm not exactly sure where to place the blame for this dismal failure, all I can say for sure is that nothing seems to work in this film. The usually likeable Jimi Mistry is totally out of character and a non-factor in the movie while Dougray Scott fairs a little better but not well enough to spark any real interest in the viewing audience. I guess you'll watch this one if you're a die-hard Jennifer Love Hewitt fan, there's no other reason to see it.

JLH w/ british accent
Added 1/29/2007
That was the hardest part to get past in the movie was her accent. Could't really tell if it was dubbed or not. Her laugh was normal, but her talk almost seemed dubbed. The movie was decent, but was odd. The main character's husband is cheating on her with some tramp, and then the wife gets an idea to be "naughty" and pretend to be a mistress. It ends with the husband being found out that he was cheating on his wife, but also cheating on his mistress with his wife, whom he thought was someone else. The man is just slime and I felt he didn't get the right amount of punisment. So, it left me wanting to see someone just beat the crap out of him because of the way he treated is wife. Oh well, at least I have a not so common JLH movie.

You must be able to relate...
Added 11/10/2009
This move was a fave of mine because I totally relate!! Anyone else that I know that loves this movie is also someone that can relate to the lifestyle.
A person that would do anything to be at the top of the ladder, in the know with "the top people", wearing THE best everything etc.
I love this movie!!

Jennifer Love Hewitt is adorable in this
Added 8/5/2009
fun, silly, watchable film. You know an actor has talent when
a character they portray has few redeemable traits, but yet, you still root for them.
Katya is a social climber and will do most anything to get to an invitation only ball.
The best part of this film for me was JLH character's narration. She has to keep track of all her
expenses for her tax man. While doing so she pretty much ends up with
a daily diary of her life. Naughty, silly, charming fun. I rented it and plan to buy it for a pick me
up sometime when I am blue.

Good movie.
Added 1/1/2009
Loved this movie after seeing it on TV. Had to have it so I could watch it whenever I wanted to. My mother hasn't seen it, so I'm looking forward to watching it with her.
