Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

e-07239 I found Music and Lyrics to be charming and clever.... Hugh Grant gives a great crisp delivery on his very witty lines... good interaction between he and Barrymore, some well-timed jokes and a heartfelt ending make this a nice date movie that did not follow i love the chemistry between us, and I was stride by their love story,now that they were not so young and suffered a lot,but they still stayed true,I am really attached to Drew that kind of girl,which is very loyal and personate

Dunham16 Millennium romantic comedies tend to follow the formula of a boy and girl seeming neither right for each other nor likely to express initial interest in each other soon forced in shallow and contrived circumstance to spend time together on a project they did not choose and along the way realize they are matched. In this unique movie of this genre television personalities Kristen Johnson and Brad Garrett play scenes with movie personalities Drew Barrymore and Hugh grant who are shorter and more vivacious than they are This creates a visual and sound track interest purely the director's and photographer's genius which keep the familiar story line moving with interest and fascination. There is excellent work in the pop culture aspect well played and performed including Hugh Grant as a member.

maureen-burford This is my definition of the perfect pop movie. Drew and Hugh make us believe in these quirky characters, the music is spot on, the humor perfectly timed. It's under-rated because it doesn't try to be something it's not, so refreshing, but succeeds brilliantly at what it is--a seemingly effortless, finding themselves romantic comedy.If there were ever a documentary film devoted to best comic moments by supporting players this film has several that qualify for the hall of fame, including scenes with the apartment desk clerk played by Aasif Mandvi or with Drew's sister in the film played by Kristen Johnston.It's six years later and I still feel peeved when the talking heads who originally reviewed this film have the last word. It's a lovely dessert.

amit saha First I must tell all that I am a great fan of Drew Barrymore (like die-hard fan) and never liked Hugh Grant much. Like many other viewers I never gave the movie much of a chance. In fact I bought the DVD only because of because of Drew. But watching it was pleasant surprise. The best part of the movie was actually "Music & Lyrics" I mean the songs. The title 'way back into love' and 'dance with me tonight' have become my favorites. Like the movie these songs the bring a feeling of pleasantness and calmness. Also must mention that Drew and Hugh have pretty good voice, in fact I liked Drew and Hugh's version of title song more than that by Haley Bennett, maybe their being actors helped them lending more emotions to their voice ,which makes up for their lack of singing talent. Other songs like 'meaningless kiss', 'love autopsy' and 'don't write me off' are quite good. A small sneak peek in movie.Hugh plays Alex Fletcher who can save his dwindling carrier by composing a song for a major current teen singing sensation (someone like lady gaga), but needs a lyricist.In comes Sophie, Alex's temporary plant girl who has an amazing talent with pen but is dealing with some personal issues and together they create a chemistry and warmth as good as the title song. The movie neither overdoes the comedy or cuteness nor it becomes too slow, a common syndrome by which romantic comedies are plagued. The balance of the movie is fine. Every now and then it manages to make us smile through subtle comic punch but never overcooks it. Now coming to performances Drew and Hugh were amazing. Their chemistry looked perfect. Drew completely soaks in the role of this extremely vulnerable girl next door very well who is afraid to face her fears and Hugh gelled well in the role of a singer almost finished with singing career trying desperately to make a final dash. Their on screen chemistry is as good as it gets. Other actors like Haley Bennett , Brad Garrett , Kirsten Johnston do justice to their role. Overall it was a nice movie which can be watched with entire family to have a good time. I hope Drew does more movies like this.
