I didn't know that after Julia's character and Hugh's got married Spike changed career and became a CIA instructor in Snowden!!! What a big change.

i actually found him to be the most obnoxious.

Wasn't his first scene where he has Hugh Grant help him pick out a shirt to wear on his date?
It was pretty funny.

I feel he was the worst thing in the film. He wasn't funny in the slightest and added nothing. I would have been fine with Hugh Grant's non-Julia Roberts scenes being solely with Hugh Bonneville and co.

I won't comment on most of his films because I have not seen him in much but he was a much needed breath of fresh air in this one.
Is the real Notting Hill as laid back as it is portrayed here?
Back to Rhys' character Spike's first scene which sets the mood for his character for the rest of the movie.

LOL. Good times!

He and Dylan Moran are the best things in it.
In fact, I only watched it (just finished a couple of minutes ago) because I wanted to see Ifans. I don't exactly regret watching it - he was great - but I really thought it was annoyingly, depressingly stupid.

who inhabit and bring to life a variety of interesting characters
and that is amplified by several really obnoxious americans like her american boyfriend, to show exactly WHY she wants OUT of American Beauty to a meaningful life.
Interesting that in Pelican Brief she also opts to leave america

He's good; but so are all the support cast. The film wouldn't work as well as it does without Julia, Hugh and the strong support cast who inhabit and bring to life a variety of interesting characters.

and the name of Spike [Milligan] was so appropriate for his role
he could have been Eccles

He was one of the brighter spots along with the rest of Will's friends who were so much more endearing than Anna.
