Summary: wonderful, great theme song Stars expect to laugh and cry
Review: A young couple has everything going for them in this humor filled story. Much excitement and the usual parental fears surround the impending birth of their baby, then something goes terribly wrong in the blink of an eye Jack must now grow up and face his most difficult and fulfilling chapter of his life.
Rating: 
Summary: A real chick flick
Review: An excelent Movie, one that I could watch over and over again. Richard E Grant played the part of Jack really well and you could capture all the emotions and feelings throughout the film. Samantha Mathis also plays her lead well.

Summary: Great movie to watch over again, some improbabilities...
Review: First, I have watched this movie over several times in the space of one week, mainly to get the first half-hour, and to watch the expressions on the faces of the baby and Jack as they bond. And the first time I watched, I snuffled my way past three moments... something that I have not done for a long time in watching movies.Secondly, I admit to renting this movie primarily because of Richard E. Grant and learning a bit about his filmography and his personal life. [For more on both, I recommend his own website]. However, the movie came with a delightful and remarkable bonus - superb turns by notable actors in secondary characters Margaret (Dame Judi Dench, of Mrs Brown, Elizabeth, and As Time Goes By fame), Philli (Dame Eileen Atkins, Rose of Upstairs Downstairs fame), and William (Sir Ian McKellen, of Gods and Monsters and Richard III). There is a slight frisson in seeing Richard Grant and Ian McKellen in the same movie. Grant plays the Scarlet Pimpernel in the controversial A&E/BBC version that strays from the original storyline. McKellen played Chauvelin in the 1982 version starring Anthony Andrews. Having just seen both versions lent this movie an extra fillip. Now to the merits of the film itself. It is a maudlin comedy, in that there are comic moments but the film starts off more as a tragedy waiting to happen. And the tragedy does take place quite soon - and Jack, a lawyer who apparently has everything, finds his life falling apart. His bonding with his infant daughter (forced upon him by his relatives) gives him a reason to go on. I found this the strongest part of the film, although I was somewhat upset by omission of facts (such as the manner of Sarah's death) and some improbabilities (the apparent ease with which Jack could absent himself from his job, without being fired). Jack's breakdown was however portrayed brilliantly, and in watching the beginning a fourth time, I was able to follow the stages of his despair as I had never done earlier. It may be that the accents are slightly strange to me, but multiple viewings allowed me to pick up first this, and then that - only going to showcase the talents of Grant and the supporting actors. Having bestowed all this praise (and ooohed and aahed over the cute little baby, or baby actors playing the baby), I must say that I was somewhat less convinced over the love affair. I won't go into details for fearing of spoiling the film for you. A little personal history for Amy (the nanny) would have helped. All we learn is that she is an American in London, that she knows nothing about child care, and we also learn a little bit about a past relationship. Keeper status: Very likely, but not definite. You really have to like this kind of film, or just adore British film actors. I love Dench and Grant, but I am not sure I want to add this film to my video collection. Re-viewing status: Very likely. This film is definitely worth watching again.

Summary: Very, very funny and true to life movie, cute and quick!
Review: I am a fan of Briatain in general, and when the humor is good, it is great. This movie is great!!! There are very few movies that I have seen that capture Britain well, and this does that plus more. The humor is good, the sad parts are good. Great movie!

Summary: Fantastic!
Review: I first stumbled onto this movie on the Romance channnel, not knowing much about the movie or the actors in it. I fell in love with this movie and highly recommend it. I have since watched it several times and I am now a huge fan of Richard E. Grant. He is a truly great actor. British film at its best!

Summary: Great Film
Review: I just want to correct the previous reviewer - Richard E Grant is NOT Hugh Grant's brother - they just happen to share the same last name!
About the film - fantastic romantic comedy + very very cute baby!
Rating:
Summary: A romance I am glad I didn't miss, I recommend it totally.
Review: I loved the story. This is a romance that will drive emotions high. While I watched, I was hoping the story would have a happy ending. The soundtrack was amazing, one I want to purchase if available. (need feedback on soundtrack)

Summary: Loved every minute of it!!!
Review: I saw the preview for this movie a couple of years ago on a video tape that I rented. The trailer had me hooked but I could never find the movie. I finally saw it the other night and I loved it. It really grabbed my attention as well as my heart strings. It wasn't a typical romantic comedy. There are quite a few surprises in the movie, especially at the end. It has a great story line, is well acted, and will make you smile. The expressions on the baby's face will make your heart melt. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Enchanting story of accepting loss and moving on.
Review: I was already a fan of Samantha Mathis. But now I am a huge fan of Richard E. Grant. He was marvelous as the grieving husband left to be a father to his infant daughter. The pair had a wonderful chemistry and the story was charming. I only wish the studio would release the video for sale. I will snap it up immediately!

Summary: One of those classics you can see again and again
Review: I've watched this twice now on the Romance Channel and loved it more each time. The characters are so right in the parts they play and the love that grows between the main characters is not sudden but develops nicely. I hope the company rereleases it again, I want to purchase it, it's a classic.
