    I rented this movie and loved it so much Ihad to buy it. This is a delightful comedy guaranteed to lift your spirits. Brittany Murphy has the best American/British accent with the British wry sense of humor. She is perky and optimistic and while the movie is predictible in it's outcome, as romantic comedies usually are, Brittany and her roommate, Matthew Rhys, make getting there so enjoyable you are never bored or weary of the ending. A must see!!!! (written by Nancy B.)
