SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Dorathen Better Late Then Never
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
metcigar Love the film. But, it has one scene (breakfast) which must have been filmed when the continuity person was terminated and before the new person was hired.Watch the scene. It was shot at least three times (possibly four) and cut together. Watch the plates, glasses, hands, sitting forward or sitting back, etc. All of this is screen center and by the primaries, not atmosphere. Seriously funny to watch. The largest number of continuity errors I have ever seen in a single scene.Other than that, the overall film is a fun watch.Oh, and don't stop watching... the story continues through the credit roll.
Julesecosse For me it got off to a rocky start but settled down into a gentle romantic comedy.There are no surprises here, it is fairly predictable fare. But is has it's charms. The leads work well together; indeed they are the heavyweights of their chosen genre: light and fluffy stuff; I don't think either Drew Barrymore or Hugh Grant have ventured beyond light entertainment; but perhaps that is a good thing; it's where they belong; neither seem to have other aspirations.I thought that the casting was near perfect; the peripheral characters were very believable. I particularly liked the agent(the older brother in Everybody Loves Raymond) and the young singer Cora, who represents everything you can imagine in a young modern pop star. I also liked Justin Timberlake's near cameo (he certainly gets around), he doesn't mind taking the mickey out of himself, though I felt he could have pushed it a little more for comic effect.Definitely one for a relaxing time, when you don't want to use your brain-power.
amit saha First I must tell all that I am a great fan of Drew Barrymore (like die-hard fan) and never liked Hugh Grant much. Like many other viewers I never gave the movie much of a chance. In fact I bought the DVD only because of because of Drew. But watching it was pleasant surprise. The best part of the movie was actually "Music & Lyrics" I mean the songs. The title 'way back into love' and 'dance with me tonight' have become my favorites. Like the movie these songs the bring a feeling of pleasantness and calmness. Also must mention that Drew and Hugh have pretty good voice, in fact I liked Drew and Hugh's version of title song more than that by Haley Bennett, maybe their being actors helped them lending more emotions to their voice ,which makes up for their lack of singing talent. Other songs like 'meaningless kiss', 'love autopsy' and 'don't write me off' are quite good. A small sneak peek in movie.Hugh plays Alex Fletcher who can save his dwindling carrier by composing a song for a major current teen singing sensation (someone like lady gaga), but needs a lyricist.In comes Sophie, Alex's temporary plant girl who has an amazing talent with pen but is dealing with some personal issues and together they create a chemistry and warmth as good as the title song. The movie neither overdoes the comedy or cuteness nor it becomes too slow, a common syndrome by which romantic comedies are plagued. The balance of the movie is fine. Every now and then it manages to make us smile through subtle comic punch but never overcooks it. Now coming to performances Drew and Hugh were amazing. Their chemistry looked perfect. Drew completely soaks in the role of this extremely vulnerable girl next door very well who is afraid to face her fears and Hugh gelled well in the role of a singer almost finished with singing career trying desperately to make a final dash. Their on screen chemistry is as good as it gets. Other actors like Haley Bennett , Brad Garrett , Kirsten Johnston do justice to their role. Overall it was a nice movie which can be watched with entire family to have a good time. I hope Drew does more movies like this.
grndslmmr08 This movie is about a delightful couple who are writing a song based on Uplifting the heart. Alex Fletcher who is very dedicated to his work Tries his best to convince Sophie Fisher to help him write lyrics. Sophie Fisher is still hung up on her ex-boyfriend and is suffering From a bad relationship. However, this plot of the story is very ironic And this is helping Alex Fletcher who is the protagonist of the movie is indeed helping him in his song. What Alex Fletcher is trying to do, is trying to help Sophie Fisher express herself on paper to write a beautiful delightful song. Furthermore, they realize they are falling For each other with a song yet to be finished.
