Description: Comedy favorite Hugh Grant (BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY) stars as a young man who offends an entire town by declaring their mountain -- a prized landmark -- to be a 'hill.' But soon he finds the eccentric locals, led by a witty innkeeper (Colm Meaney -- STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION) will stop at nothing to defend their honor! While the townspeople rally around their 'mountain,' a fiery young woman (Tara Fitzgerald -- SIRENS) charms the puzzled out-of-towner into seeing things their way! You'll be elevated by laughter as the hilarious townspeople rise to the occasion -- and the bewildered visitor stumbles into love when he least expects it!

Rating: - Charming Story
This is a charming tale. Everyone was well casted for their respective roles. Another winner from Hugh Grant. And not just a 'chick flik'. I recomend this one highly for everyone over the age of 10.
Rating: - a hidden treasure
This film is too often dismissed as a light-hearted Hugh Grant comedy. But it is so much more: inspirational, emotional, and uplifting. Every scene of this film is a painting, with incredible direction, set design, costume design, cinematography, editing, writing, musical soundtrack, and acting. While Grant is superb, the performances of Kenneth Griffith as Reverend Jones, Ian McNiece as George Garrad, and Ian Hart as Johnny Shellshocked are superb. In an age of slick film making with gratuitous meaningless violence and sexual innuendo, shallow scripts and meaningless stories, this movie stands for what is best for this medium, and how a character film can stand head and shoulder above the vast majority of cinemagraphic efforts attempted. If you like character studies and great writing, watch this film!
Rating: - Worthy movie
This movie is a very substantive movie. Don't let the presence of Hugh Grant trivialize this movie. It is one of the funniest and smartest movies I have ever seen. It is a true story about a little town who is about to lose it's mountain, which is a source of pride for the whole community. I think it is the most watched movie with all of my family members. As a side note our church is showing this movie at our movie discussion night, it has lots of meat.
Rating: - Great Movie For Those Who Aren't Even Fans of Hugh Grant
This is a fun movie about people accomplishing a goal that only has value to those of their town.
The towns people are enjoyable characters who come off as genuine as the country side is beautiful.
