South Kensington (2001)

Absolutely the worst movie.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Recap: A cash-strapped half-Italian aristocrat who lives in London try to make ends meet by taking in lodgers in his (once) luxurious house in South Kensington. He still has lots of connections with the jet set and frequently goes to the best parties. He knows a lot of women but never seem to really catch up with anyone. But his two Italian lodgers who shares his taste for the good life seem to have better luck.Comments: First off, this is a bi-lingual movie, but mostly it is in Italian. Not a real problem though if your used to read subtitles.In my opinion it is definitely underrated. A romantic comedy that mostly follows the usual recipe, but with some special ingredients to give it extra spice. One is the division of the story into three mostly equal parts, each one centered around one of the men living in the house and in search for love and happiness. What's special is that the characters in the movie are part of all three stories mixing the stories up. A lot of opportunity for confusion and freak encounters, with a goodhearted tone, makes up for fun situations and good comedy.Not a movie that will make you roar with laughter but makes you smile most of the time. Maybe not the movie to build your evening around, but definitely worth a watch while waking up an early morning...7/10

This must be one of the worst movies ever made . What is worse is that I have a version dubbed into English. I bought it for Rupert Everett and it is so weird not hearing his wonderful voice. If it's a chick flick then why is only one man ( Rupert) worth looking at ? I think it's a movie dug up because Sienna Miller is in it . It seems to be about two Italian me staying in the house of a half-Italian aristocrat who is desperate for money so takes in lodgers. The best of it is Mo ,Rupert's dog. It has no storyline except lots of men going out and staying in with lots of ladies. If you can get it really cheap then have a good laugh.I think watching it with no sound might remove some of the hamminess. Some things to look out for are Rupert's character a supposed aristocrat buying a tabloid and how close two of the leading ladies look which makes it more confusing.

I saw this movie on HBO last night and i must say I found it one cute romantic movie. 3 to 4 stories are mixed together and connect at the end. Although dubbed, you can still follow it without any problems.Rupert Everett gives an impressive performance and Elle MacPherson looks really sexy in this movie. She was one reason I liked this movie even more.I would recommend this movie on a slow Sunday night if you nothing better to do.A good chick flick.3 out of 5
