Granted Moore Laughs

Rating: 8/10 (25 March 2007)

Going in I said to my self please, give me more than just a romantic comedy with music used to fill a plot line. Well i got what i asked for. I am an involved fan of both Drew Barrymore and the entire romantic comedy genre,and i am use to typical Romadies, but recently marking movie releases like "Fever Pitch and "Because I said so". A change that is redefining the Romady gave me hope.
Drew's character seemed typical, starting of as just a woman coming in to water plants her hidden persona begins to unravel with in seconds free thought and clever rhyming spill from her lips causing Grants character, a washed up pop artist who hears her sing to ask her to use her writing skills to aid his career. the constant jokes and stereotypical parodied scenes of what a pop star is, makes for an incredibly funny movie. the even more interesting back story of why an talented writer turns her back on her gift was brilliant, the alter ego that was present in Barrymoores character flaw was extremely laughable. over all this movie is more funny than romantic and at times the singing us slightly annoying. But what is romance but a Song wrapped in a laugh and sailed down a sea of annoyance. you will love this one on a Friday with your honey.loll enjoy.
