To fall in love with the music and lyrics:

Rating: 8/10 (1 March 2009)

I really loved the movie Music and Lyrics. I have first seen him on DVD, because I have heard from a lot of people that the movie was very good. When I saw him , I had to admit that nobody told me a lie. The theme is very actual, because now a days, everybody tries to write and sing a song. But the love between Sophie and Alex(the most important people of the movie) makes the film as good as he is. These 2 people work together because Alex have to make a song for a young singer Cora. Sophie helps him with the writing of the lyrics. The song they made called 'Way back into love'.
The songs which are used in the movie are very good. They can be songs you hear on the radio. The song in the beginning of the movie: Pop, goes my heart, is very funny. It took my attention immediately, and it made me also very curious about the rest of the movie. My expectations were completely fulfilled. I have to admit that maybe the movie is a little bit girly, but there are also boys who loved him. Maybe that was because Drew Barrymore plays the roll of Sophie. Or maybe because there was also Haley Bennett who played the roll of Cora, a very sexy singer. This was also very realistic. Because in the film they named: Justin Timberlake, Shakira, Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne, . These are contemporary singers. But maybe Cora wouldn't be so successful in real life, because she always says chanti,chanti, even if she don't know what it means. In the film she is a very spiritual girl, and all her songs goes about this. I think this movie can be an example for other singers who are "has-beens" just like Alex ( Played by Hugh Grant) who was very popular in the 80's in the film and who is doing a comeback with the support of Sophie. A comeback is always possible, the music of the past is still very hip and cool. Even I love music of the 80's and I am just a girl of 16 years old. The fact that Hugh Grant sings in the movie was for me a little bit surprising, but it was pretty good. So he was the perfect man for this roll. Even he is a little bit older, he is still handsome.
The plot of the film is maybe a little bit easy. Alex and Sophie had just before the big show of Cora a fight, and like in all the films, it comes always good. The way they result this, is beautiful but not 'wauw!'.
A good thing about the end is, when the names of everybody who worked on the film disappeared, you still see things and they give information about the future. That is something I really liked.
The film hasn't won an award, but he had 5 nominations. The film and actors were nominated for the awards: Artois (Best future film casting-comedy) , Blimp Award (Favorite female movie star Drew Barrymore) , Teen choice award ( choice movie: Chick Flick, choice movie: Liplock for Drew Barrymore and Hugh Grant) and Young artist award (best performance in a future film for Jeremy Karson)
If I have to give points to this film, I would give him an 8. Like a already said , it is a very good film, I really like to see him. But he is not perfect.
I would recommend this film to everybody who wants to see a happy, funny , romantic film. It is actually a family film, everybody could see him. So if you don't know what to do, are you just want to have fun, see Music and Lyrics!!
