Music and Lyrics Review Summary

Music and Lyrics, starring Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore, is what happens when a "beautiful, neurotic, hypochondriacal writer meets handsome, self-absorbed, boy-band has-been." Viewpoints reviewers found this to be an overall great chick flick with with "a splash of romance, a dash of cuteness, and a pinch of comedy." Graduates of romantic comedies such as Love Actually and The Wedding Singer, this May December romance has Grant being "ridiculously charming" and Barrymore being "disgustingly adorable." With music as the backdrop to Music and Lyrics, reviewers do wish that better singers had been involved. Perhaps Grant and Barrymore shouldn't give up their day jobs.

Pretty deep for someone who wears such tight pants...

Beautiful, neurotic, hypochondriacal writer meets handsome, self-absorbed, boy-band has-been...that's how this movie starts out and I gotta tell ya, it's a formula for greatness! Hugh Grant plays the aging 80's pop star Alex Fletcher who is asked to write a new song for a Britney Spears-type pop star...

Cute movie that needs better singers

One of the great misconceptions regarding movies is that guys don't like romantic comedies. Well, I'm a guy and I'm a sucker for a good romantic comedy. In fact, if I were to compile a list of my 10 favorite movies, The Goodbye Girl would be on it and a few other romantic comedies would be contenders,...

i have to say when it comes to movies with either drew barrymore or Hugh grant i don't typically shout for joy when one of their movies comes out. But I actually saw this movie one day and I was blow away!! It is the best movie ever. It's very clever and funny and a great love story. If anything, watch the first 5 minutes. You will laugh your butt off. I would totally recommend this to anyone I come across.

I absolutely loved this movie. My husband went with me and I thought he would hate it, but he didn't. He laughed out loud at a number of parts. Hugh Grant does a great job of playing someone that you would expect him to play, but that's what's so great. I though Drew was really good as well. The movie just doesn't get old!

This movie was great, even though i am not really into the romantic type movies. It had a splash of romance, a dash of cuteness, and a pinch of comedy. Its so great it was like it was cooking up some big gourmet mela or something. i would recommend people to go and rent this movie.

Loved this movie. Drew is adorable, and any movie she makes is worth watching. However, she was upstaged by whats-his-face, as his ability to sing chessy 80s tunes was fantastic.
