Poor pizza!

Rating: 5/10 (12 March 2007)

Ever had a pizza with all the right ingredients - but just failed to excite you? Music and Lyrics is not far off from this sentiment.
With great promise from a great cast - it just didn't cut it! The script was contrived and actors more so...Hugh Grant, an Andrew Ridgeley type character, philosophizing on the innate beauty of "My Girl" - was laughable!Drew Barrymore's performance as the ditzy plant keeper with a "myserious past" was tortuous.
The 80's throwbacks were too few and far between - a definite selling point. Supporting actors (Brad Garret and Kristen Johnston) were great in their brief screen time. On the whole - laughable, sometimes witty - but wait for it on DVD...
