Not a gay movie but a love comedy

A fast-paced comedy with good acting from Ewan McGregor and Jim Carrey. McGregor's performance in the portrayal of a feminine gay man has been amazing: the shot that saw a tear fell down his face had worked wonders on the film, all of a sudden the love element in the picture becomes a lot more convincing. While Jim Carrey has always been the key factor that discourages me to see a particular movie, I was glad to see his over-the-top acting under control in here.

As a gay movie not going artistic (I guess going artistic is merely impossible having starred Jim Carrey), I Love you Philip Morris amused me with scenes that resemble a lot of that from "Happy Together" of Wong Kar Wai - be it the choice of music or the dancing part of the 2 leading actors in their cell.

I just don't understand why the poster for HK cinemas has to be that ugly, and why the one in the States has to look that much similar to the one of The Informant of Matt Damon...
