Bubbly, charming and funny

Rating: 8/10 (17 February 2007)

This describes the movie, Hugh and Drew. If there's anybody more adorable and lovable than Hugh Grant, it's Drew Barrymore.
It opens with a hilarious 1984 music video starring Hugh and his old bandmates. Oh, that will bring back memories of the groups we drooled over in 80s.
I know people will say this is just a chick flick, but the men in the theater were chuckling right along. Hugh's character is very witty all the way through.
Refreshingly, even though Hugh's character is a has-been (and his former bandmate is still famous and now knighted), he is not at all bitter. He is perfectly happy with his life singing at fairs and amusement parks and 1987 class reunions.
It's not a great romantic comedy, but it's a very pleasant way to spend 96 minutes and I came out of the theater in a good mood which lasted the rest of the day.
