One could do worse than see this on a date on Valentine's Day

Rating: 5/10 (12 February 2007)

Its not great its not bad its okay. Both actors play themselves as they are often seen in other films. But then so does Robert Redford and Cary Grant it did them no harm and one does know what one is getting.
So we have Hugh Grant playing to type and Drew Barrymore doing the same. Where this could have been great with Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn set in the 40s. This set in 2006 does not quite come up to par. That is not to say its not worth seeing and it does have its moments. This is no Notting Hill the DVD will not sell much but that said its a boy gets girl boy loses girl rom-com. The stars do their best with what they are given and Hugh Grant's pop video is not half bad, a parody on 80s pop videos. But why on earth anyone needs someone to water a few plants in a flat beats me. Anyway its a movie so anything is possible crazy but clever girl meets past pop star and write a pop song and find love. Yeah Right!
Go not expecting very much and you may really enjoy it. Stay for the credits its funny.
