Additional Music and Lyrics (Widescreen Edition) Information
|
First you're hot, then you're not...and then you're Alex Fletcher (HUGH GRANT). So when the sizzlingest tween-queen on the charts asks the has-been '80s pop sensation to write her a song, he grabs for another chance at stardom. Problem: Alex can say it with music, but he sure can't say it with words. Enter Sophie Fisher (DREW BARRYMORE), his beguiling if quirky plant lady, who has a green thumb for lyrics. Together, they go after songwriting success -- and discover that if you want to write the perfect love song, it helps to fall in love. With Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore at the keyboard and Marc Lawrence (Two Weeks Notice) directing, Music and Lyrics is a witty, wacky romantic comedy that faces the music...and laughs!

Our friend is a big Hugh Grant fan and was disaapointed as well. I had high hopes for this movie but found it slow at times and disappointing. Although it was not a total flop, I must say I expected must more.
If you love music, singing (which Hugh isn't bad singing wise, dorky-corny sense of comedy, then this is great for your collection. The opening is great, which is a mock up of Hugh being a pop star group. The chemistry between Hugh and Drew is awkwardly great and comical, which is purposely meant to be. First of all you have to realize that this is a romantic comedy with Hugh Grant and Drew Berryman, so lets not have any academy award expectations. It's perfect for one of those days where there's nothing to watch on tv or cable and you want to kill some time with a light comedy. A light, witty, easy going comedy that is somewhat believable scenario into an elaborate plot of a has been pop star trying to find his way back into the meaning of his existence (place in the world).I enjoyed it the first time I watched it in the movie theatre with my girlfriend when it first came out. Given that, lets do take it for what it's meant to be. It definitely appeals to the older generations that grew up in the 70-80's.
The on-screen chemistry between Grant and Barrymore was so significant, that one could believe that they were lovers in real life. I have purchased both the movie sound track, sheet music, and movie DVD. Grant and Barrymore are excellent performers and most of their work is pretty good. The music is so warm and enduring. Good job G&B. There was a combination of superb acting, story line, and music that make this movie just so wonderful. The ensemble aspect with the other actors was also just the best.
I purchased it for my fiance who loves the movie and music. This was a wonderful product.
Sorry I bought it. I couldn't even finish watching this movie. It was horrible; everything about it.
