First you-re hot, then you-re notÂ- and then you-re Alex Fletcher. So when the sizzlingest tween queen on the charts asks the has-been '80s pop sensation to write her a song, he grabs another chance at stardom. Problem: Alex can say it with music, but he sure can-t say it with words. Enter Sophie Fisher, his beguiling if quirky plant lady, who has an unexpected green thumb for lyrics. Together, they go after songwriting success ™ and discover that if you want to write the perfect love song, it helps to fall in love.
With Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore at the keyboard and Marc Lawrence (Two Weeks Notice) directing, Music and Lyrics is a witty, wacky romantic comedy that faces the musicÂ- and laughs!
Product reviews...
I have enjoyed Drew Barrymore in most of the movies she-s been in, ever since I was a kid, whereas I-ve disliked Hugh Grant for almost as longÂ- so I wasn-t really sure what to expect with this movie, but thought what the heck, let-s give it a go! At first, it looked like it was going to be a typical Hugh Grant movieÂ- rather corny and dull. But after a while it started to warm up, and before I knew it, I was actually enjoying the movie. The songs were quite catchy and I was rather surprised to hear Grant and Barrymore both had pretty good singing voices. Light hearted, with a good dose of romance thrown in, but not so much that it-s sickening, this is one of Hugh Grant-s better movies, and one I-m guessing I will be watching again.
