"Love Factory" is an outstanding film. Normally I stay away from romantic comedies, but this one moved at a pace that made it much more enjoyable than the Julia Roberts/Hugh Grant crap that is typically released in the U.S. It really drags the viewer through an impressive range of emotion. One minute you think it's the funniest thing out there and the next it seems a bit depressing. Ultimately it resolves as a somewhat uplifting film. Much of it's charm evolves from what seems like understated slapstick, similar to what was typical in the television show "Ally McBeal," except in this film it was actually funny and timed well. It may also appeal to those who enjoy the television show "King of the Hill," as the protagonist's love of baking rivals Hank Hill's love for propane and propane accessories. It's an excellent and comical film about ordinary people.
