The Holiday - 3 Stars (Good)

Christmas is coming and suddenly everyone is busy preparing for another holiday season. A film can be very funny. We want to be entertained and interested by a story that keeps us alert and have a happy ending.

Nancy Meyers provides what you need as a writer / director of "The Holiday", a romantic comedy with Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, Jack Black, Eli Wallach. Described by one spectator as chocolate "of Switzerland in the romantic comedy," certainly qualifies as their only winning the Teen Choice Award for Best Chick Flick.

Actually, I thought of vacation to be a little more than a chick movie. As a student of relationships that provide a happy ending to the dilemma of women who engage in relationships with men who almost seem interested, but always cheat.

The holiday's premise is simple enough. Stuck in impossible relationships, with two men from time Los Angeles resident Amanda (Cameron Diaz) and Londoner Iris (Kate Winslet) decide to exchange homes during the Christmas holidays in an effort to forget their problems.

Both Amanda and Iris are in unusual circumstances and are forced to confront what they are and what they want in a relationship. Amanda must look inward to find the emotion that escaped him in his youth, and Iris must look outward to be more self-absorbed in her perfect relationship does not exist.

Amanda, the owner and creative force of a film trailers of the publishing pace in the face of Hollywood dumps its trap Ethan (Edward Burns) and is even more alone in a house in Surrey (near London) where he meets Iris' brother Graham (Jude Law), a widower with two daughters. She has not cried tears since the breakup of her parents when she was a teenager.

Iris is a writer of some renown with the Telegraph newspaper in London. She longs for Jasper Bloom (Rufus Sewell), who used three years ago, but then committed to a colleague at The Telegraph. Jasper is a self-centered, selfish CAD without heart or mind to fulfill its part of the body most in need. Iris is too in love to see clearly.

Iris meets Arthur Abbott (Eli Wallach), a writer of the film made in Beverly Hills that he would love to have as their great-grandfather. Arthur tells Iris that "films that have leading ladies and we best friends. You, I can tell, is a hero, but for some reason, they are behaving like the best friend ".

Finally, Iris meets with Miles (Jack Black), a film composer who suffers from the same disease problems as Iris predestined relationship, and the two form a bond of sweet happiness assured.

The chemistry between Amanda and Graham are excellent, and holiday benefits of great Christmas music and good leadership of Nancy Meyers.

The boys will not go soft on this film, but would do well to pay attention to what girls really want. The holiday is a great movie for the season Christmas, it will emphasize your emotions, but will fill you with good feelings.
