A great romantic comedy. One of the best I've seen right up there with Love Actually. It has a great cast and just has a quality feel about the whole film. A very entertaining feel good film. So if you normally avoid rom-coms you may have missed out on this little gem.

A good little switcheroo movie. Diaz sings badly but is still cute. Winslet plays a homebody opening up to new experiences well. I don't know about Law, he doesn't stand out to me. And Black is a favorite of mine specifically for these more subdued roles.

festive fairytale crap that's not realistic in the slightest but besides all that all of the four leads... except jack black act brilliantly which is weird because it's usually black who acts with all the enthusiasm. i've always liked kate winslet as an actress but jude law is st...( read more)

I have mixed feelings about this movie. In the end I liked it and I really liked the relationship that formed b/w Jack and Kate and Jude's performance was good, but I didn't like Cameron's performance and to me it actually took so much away from the film, it left me undetermined...( read more)

I surprised myself and I can?t quite believe I am going to say this, but I really enjoyed this from start to finish. Cameron Diaz was uncharacteristically funny.
This was a corny feel good film, yet completely endearing, it does everything for me that films like Bridget Jones...( read more) -

Critic Reviews
...The story goes on at untoward length. full review
Winslet, who's never done a Hollywood romantic comedy before, turns out to be a natural, blushing prettily and smiling so broadly the camera seems ready to embrace her. full review
The Holiday has the materialist airhead brightness of a Christmas department store window, with handsomely outfitted mannequins arranged around an artificial fire. It's glamorous and sentimental but i... full review
Meyers' movies would be far less offensive if they were simply shiny, shallow entertainments. But they always read like pronouncements, monitor readings of how 'real' women think and feel. full review
If you're willing to embrace a bit of corniness for the sake of some incisive humor, a few poignant moments and enjoyable scenarios, make time for The Holiday. full review
To list all the contrivances strewn throughout The Holiday would require more words than are warranted by Nancy Meyers's latest batch of cinematic maple syrup. full review

April 20, 2009The first half of the movie it's quite catchy, but the end it'a a little bit too cheesy for me....and predictable. Good acting though!

March 10, 2008Jude was gorgeous, but he always is, in all ways possible. You could even feel a beautiful and sentimental little fatherly vibe going off around the kids. But I agree with that other poster - Cameron Diaz is about as loveable as a sharp rock. She seemed so emotionless and cold. Everything looked like it was stuffing up her day, even the kids, which made me dislike her.
Big thumbs up for Jude who is an amazing actor in his passion and versatility, but big thumbs down for how much Diaz managed to sink the film to something a bit uncomfortable.
Loved that beautiful little cry from Jude!!! Sigh.. -

October 11, 2007amazing movie..
a hoiday like that is just what i need! lol.
actually i exremely relate to kate's character in this movie. every single word that escaped her mouth about love or the things her friends told her is the same with me.
but yet i wanted the guy that cameron had.
very interesting :) -
September 21, 2007This is a really good movie, Cameron Diaz plays a great part in this movie and Kate Winslet, also Jack Black & the other actor's.

July 20, 2007Everything is just awful and is the most sickest thing i've ever seen! And also for making England look so glamourous, this is set in a fantacy land. Bless Kate Winslet for trying to pull this out of the water, but apart from that...IT'S SHITE!!!
