Full review
This film was originally going to be called, 'Love story', but the title infringed on copyright, so they went with their second choice. Love Story was totally to the point, the film is just that. Robert (McGregor) a lowly cleaner, is fired by his big time boss. In an effort to tell his boss what he thinks of him, it all goes terribly wrong, as Celine (Diaz), the bosses daughter encourages Roberts insults toward her father. When security is called in, Robert manages to get hold of one of the guards guns, and shoots his boss in the leg. In an attempt to get away, he makes a feeble attempt to kidnap the boss daughter. He takes her out to a cabin, where she shows Robert that their is more to a kidnapping than he first thought. She teachs him the ropes, and they eventually fall in love. This film is a very sweet, comical tale, of how a rich woman, can fall in love with a mere cleaner, in such an unusual way. It is extremly funny in places, and good to watch. I actually own the McGregor box set, which includes this film. I would'nt reccommend this film to any hardcore action seekers. Women in general will love this film, and any of you guys who like a good innocent laugh.
