Advantages: Good funny film, great characters Disadvantages: Annoying French accent
...watch a good chick flick! Addicted to Love is one which I have seen in Tesco?s on many occasions but decided not to buy as it is not my hubby?s sort of film. I am please to say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. The film is centred around Sam who at the start of the film is madly in love with his girlfriend who takes a two month job in New York. Sam is excited when she is due back but soon he finds himself devastated when his girlfriend father tell him ... ...is over. Sam goes to New York to track her down and to bring her home. Sam arrives in New York to find his girlfriend is living with a new man. He soon meets Maggie who is the ex-fiancé of the man his girlfriend is living with and they decide to team up to gat Sam his girl back and let Maggie get her revenge on her ex.
Will Maggie and Sam succeed in their plan and will Sam get the love of his life back or will he realise his love lies elsewhere?

Advantages: Meg Ryan, it's a nice film Disadvantages: More for the lasses than the lads
Addicted to Love is a romantic comedy featuring two extremely amiable stars. Meg Ryan and Matthew Broderick are both competent, inoffensive stars, who (generally) make competent inoffensive movies.
Sam (Matthew Broderick) is an astronomer whose girlfriend Linda(Kelly Preston) goes to New York to teach and decides to stay, dumping him in the process. Naturally, he goes to see her only to hear a man's voice coming from inside her hotel room.

I love Meg Ryan, and I love DVDs, hence I bought this movie! It's not particularly famous, and not due any awards, but it is wonderfully inoffensive and sweet.
The DVD itself if great as it has more than the boring so-called 'special feature' of scene access and subtitles but also other trailers - more romantic comedies - and something on the camera obscura, which has a major role in the film... "It's not a camera!" This piece of apparatus is very ... ...(played by Matthew Broderick) who convinces himself he's not spying on his ex-girlfriend because he's not using a camera.
This is a film you have to have if you're a Meg Ryan fan, she's great as always, or if you simply want something that only needs minimal attention on a Friday night after a hard week at work.
There are deeper issues about what could be considered stalking, they are not really explored, but it could make you think if you want ...

Advantages: If you love Meg Ryan she is Hilarious in this one! Disadvantages: had a hard tiem not seeing Matthew Broderik as Ferris Bueller's age
I loved this movie. Meg Ryan was awesome in it. Meg Ryan and Matthew Broderick make a great team. If you ever need revenge or help getting back an exlover this is your team! The sets where great and the story line was one of the best I have seen in quite some time. If your looking for a good love story with plenty of laughs--this is the one. The two of them teamed up makes for a great revenge scheme, some of the things they will do is hilarious. ...
