Wonderful, fun film

Rating: 8/10 (7 April 2010)

When the film came out I was so not interested in seeing it. I don't go for love-coms at all (and no way does my husband) but we had nothing else to watch, and we chose this.
We loved this it! Hugh Grant was great and adorable as an ex-pop star, and Drew Barrymore was so cute as the plant-girl. They worked well together, really complimented each other. I would never have guessed it, never in a million years have put them together, and we were pleasantly surprised.
There are some tender moments, and quite a few laughs, especially subtle ones coming from a modest Grant.
It was hard seeing Barrymore and Johnston as sisters, as they're so different physically, but it worked, and Johnston was hilarious. I felt bad for her husband tho LOL
