Very funny

Rating: 9/10 (19 February 2007)

I saw Music and Lyrics today because it was recommended to me. I am a big Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore fan, so I'm sure this review will be very biased. I wasn't sure about Hugh Grant as a washed up rock star, but he pulled it off with typical Hugh Grant panache. Drew Barrymore was Drew Barrymore; cute, ditsy as well as warm and down to earth. The supporting cast was perfect including Brad Garrett as Hugh's manager and Haley Bennett as Cora, the Brittany and Christina clone, was just perfect. This is a very funny movie! From beginning to end I was laughing, as was the whole audience. Though there were more women than men in the audience, I think this will appeal to both sexes. It isn't just a chick flick. It's the kind of movie I know I will buy as soon as it's out on DVD.
