One of my all time favorites.
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
I am not fan of romantic comedies. but "Do not go breaking my heart" is more than a romantic comedy. it is a smart, seductive, little bitter, refreshing, generous, sensitive, touching and example of beautiful humor film. remembering Woody Allen films, it has, as the first virtue, the right cast. Jenny Seagrove escapes from the frame of Barbara Taylor Bradford adaptations and gives a great character. Anthony Edwards is far by other roles - the mark of ER is the most heavy - for do the ordinary guy who becomes the best choice for a single mother. and Charles Dance is the inspired choice for a role who represents the basic spice of story. a soup for soul is one of good definitions for this film. and that could be a virtue . because, among the films from the same genre, it is not only different but real charming.
What a dire film this is. Just terrible. Its a typicaly modern British film with terrible photography, lame use of music and zero charm.What was Anthony Edwards and Linford Cjristie thinking. Please don't ever, ever, ever do anything like this again. 2 out of ten tops.
A really well made British film with a thoughtful storyline,and a fine cast. Good to see that fine actress Jenny Seagrove in a role well suited to her and played to perfection........wish she were my mum, but I'm too old. One of those rare movies of today that end making the viewer feel inspired and genuinely happy.
I saw this movie during a recent trip to London as Don't Go Breaking My Heart. I was attracted to it because of my divine love of the TV series ER. But I found it to be a fun, slightly offbeat comedy about a rather interesting love triangle. It was one of those movies where the underdog wins, with a cute love story mixed in with triumph of the human spirit. Despite a few holes in the plot, I loved it.
