Okay, so it's probably classified as a chick flick. But has anyone here watched it, and enjoyed it too? I know there are shortcomings to the (simple) storyline, yet the movie was delivered in such a way that I didn't mind and was happy when I left the theatre.
Yeah, I thought it was pretty good too. Pretty funny, and some a lot of nice touches, with the humour definitely being very British in flavour.
I thought it was a fantastic film, and was mostly faithful to the book and i think i'm in love with Claire Danes :innocent:
it started badly, but the pacing sorted itself within about 5 minutes
i thought it was great considering i usually sleep thru most chick flicks. it was kinda funny too
i have to say i didnt think it looked that great, but when i went to see it i changed my mind, and really enjoyed it... it was just a fun film
I saw it little while ago with the Mrs ... thought it was a pretty fun little Sunday afternoon film ... bit dodgy at times but generally alright - something it it for me and the little lady ...
Lol, I also found her entirely adorable in this movie. The 'glow' worked for me. I don't remember her in many movies, in part because I've not seen many movies staring her, but also because I didn't find some of her characters that memorable. For instance, I would associate "Claire Danes" with "My So Called Life" and "Romeo + Juliet", but totally forgot her technically relevant role in the Terminator 3 (was only reminded after looking up on IMDb).Quote:

I saw it a few weeks back too and found it really enjoyable. The bit where the brothers are having drinks and dropping dead was cracking me up hehehe.
Hadn't seen a movie like it in ages, was thoroughly enjoyable.
Great film
Though the end deviates from the book it certainly gives you the feel of the essence of the book
I love to see a big screen adaptation of Neverwhere

I saw it at home when I was sick and I was quite disappointed I must say...
I mean it was ok, but nothing more. Quite childish in my opinion :P and also quite predictable.
