Cameron Diaz - A Life Less Ordinary

Cameron Diaz appeared in A Life Less Ordinary as Celine Naville.

A Life Less Ordinary is a 1997 in film Romantic love black comedy film directed by Danny Boyle, written by Boyle and John Hodge (screenwriter). Following the international success of Trainspotting, Hodge and Boyle sought to use funding from Channel 4 to make a film that would appeal to a U.S. audience, but this follow-up proved something of a mis-fire.

A Life Less Ordinary stars Ewan McGregor, Cameron Diaz, Holly Hunter, and Delroy Lindo. Unusually, A Life Less Ordinary film was serialised as a full-length comic strip within leading British comic 2000 AD , written by then-editor David Bishop and drawn by Steve Yeowell - the first film to receive such treatment in Britain for almost a decade.

A Life Less Ordinary tell about... Ewan McGregor stars as a cleaning man in L.A. who takes his boss's daughter hostage after being fired and replaced by a robot. Two "angels" who are in charge of human relationships on earth, offer some unsolicited help to bring this unlikely couple together. The "angels" are so successful that the daughter soon turns on her father in order to save her captor.

A Magical Movie, I just love watching movies where I do not expect excellence - and yet there it is. I was very happy with a Life Less Ordinary. It seemed to me to be unique, charming, fun and just a great way to spend some enjoyable time.

When a movie gets this enjoyable, I need to ask why. In my opinion in this movie its "casting" was exceptional. And of course one then has to credit directing that puts the cast at their best. Clearly Ewan McGregor and Cameron Diaz can both be characters. Well, this is a movie that puts them at their best, funniest and most charming. The director also brings out their unique features as an actor and actress that just makes the movie enjoyable.

The highlight of this kidnapping movie is also unexpected. It for me was the song and dance routine with Ewan and Cameron. They were great - fun and charming.

This is a movie that I will want to watch again and again.
