Noted English screenwriter Richard Curtis makes his directorial bow with this romantic comedy that follows the dizzying foibles of no less than a dozen couples, featuring a cast that includes Hugh Grant as a bachelor British PM and Billy Bob Thornton as a disturbing hybrid of the worst of Clinton and Bush. Seemingly taking its lead from Bridget Jones's Diary and its sequel (both of which Curtis also wrote), Love's rich, eclectic collection of pop songs becomes something more than mere movie-soundtrack wallpaper. Indeed, tracks as disparate as Joni Mitchell's hauntingly autumnal remake of "Both Sides Now" and the Pointer Sisters' effusive '80s hit "Jump" function somewhere between supporting player and narrative Greek chorus. It's a mature, often introspective collection that mixes the expected chestnuts (the Beach Boys' evergreen "God Only Knows") and covers (Eva Cassidy's stately version of Christine McVie's "Songbird," an R&B-infused take of "All You Need Is Love" by Lynden David Hall) with standout work from Norah Jones (a torched-up "Turn Me On"), Texas (the Dusty Springfield-esque dramatics of "I'll See It Through"), and Wyclef Jean's joyous "Take Me As I Am." Underscoring the film's Christmas subtext are three holiday-themed bonus cuts by Otis Redding, Billy Mack (the film's resident rock star burnout, played by Bill Nighy), and Olivia Olson. --Jerry McCulley

my favourite movie! August 31, 2009
Eli (Italy)
I love this movie and I like so much the soundtrack too! But I think right to listen on travel for everyone.
 Love it June 17, 2009
R. VanEpps (Ann Arbor, MI USA)
Actually bought this on accident, wanted the movie. But a lot of what I love about the movie IS the soundtrack! So even though I haven't really used the CD much, it's still got a LOT of great tracks and is a good buy.
Great if you love the movie. January 29, 2009
Alexander E. Maas (San Diego)
Maybe some people did not like this movie. I had never heard of it until I rented the DVD. Mostly I do not buy DVDs, since I have NetFlix, can watch free videos on there, cheap ones right here on Amazon, and on hulu and numerous other sites. However, that movie is one of the few I ever bought on DVD--the story is good and is very enhanced by the music. Liam Neeson is one of the stars, as is Emma Thompson, Hugh Grant and numerous others. I am writing this the end of January 2009, and both Emma Thompson and Liam Neeson have movies that have just started playing in San Diego.
Love Actually is actually very good January 29, 2009

Love Actually
I started watching the movie with low hopes and was happily surprised. It's great, so is the music that weaves it all together. I had to have Christmas is All Around and All I want for Christmas is You for my holiday music collection. This is a great way to get them both along with a lot more.
Long time coming, but excellent music December 20, 2008

I forgot for a moment I had ordered this CD. When I got it total happiness.
