A well Fit and Entertaining Love Comedy

Rating: 7/10 (24 May 2007)

As a general feeling after the film, i was pleased; the movie was good, entertaining and leave you with a nice feeling after all. As a love comedy it is more well adjusted to women, but for me as a man and after i have hated a lot of this type of films, this was really good. Hugh Grant is an expert in this type of films (i can't count how many beautiful and famous actress he has kissed already: Renne Zellweger, Julia Roberts, Sandra Bullock, Jeann Triplehorn among others); so his acting is quite well fitted and with style, his pop dancing and his show is really funny!; Drew Barrymore is beautiful ad his acting is deeply lovely, i am simply in love with Drew, she has the most beautiful face in Hollywood!, and her acting in this movie show her beauty, natural as she is. The Cora Corman character is great!, as a Shakira/Christina comic symbiosis is great!. A movie definitely to enjoy, laugh and stay with a pleasant smile after a while.
ABOUT THE MOVIE: Hugh Grant is Alex fletcher, a previous pop star who was part of an 80's famous band called Pop!, this band broke up and his career declined, while the other star of the group was successful as single.
