Review: "I'm Bloody Well In Love, Bugger"


“I’m Bloody Well In Love – Bugger!”

Hugh Grant stars as a loveable paparazzi photographer who’s heart is put to the test when he “develops” a (harmless) obsession with his latest scoop. This new comedy, penned by Romcom favourite Richard Curtis sees Grant’s Darcy as an average, bumbling tabloid stalker who’s life is transformed when he is assigned to acquire snaps of world famous period drama actress Christabel Windsor (Keira Knightly) looking drunk.

The forces of Cupid however prove too strong for Darcy as, against character, he falls hopelessly in love with the young star in a delightful 140 minutes packed with naughty words and hilarious misunderstandings. Grant gives his usual solid comedy performance as the oafish pap who just can’t get it right (until the end, when he does) – just try not to laugh when he drops his camera right in front of his desired target, then swears several times!

Set in a beautiful London backdrop with snow, kittens and smiles, “I’m Bloody Well In Love, Bugger” is a romantic delight that teaches us all that life can be beautiful if your very rich and white.

“I’m Bloody Well In Love” opens Friday
