Music and Lyrics (DVD) Reviews

i almost feel bad writing this review, as I am a HUGE Hugh Grant fan, but I'm afraid this movie was not up to his usual romantic comedy abilities!!! as usual, Hugh Grant plays the classic well spoken fop, in the movie his name is Alex Fletcher, and he's a song writing living in Manhattan. He had a very successful career in the 80s, but is now ...

Ever keen on reducing my outgoings and sick of renting scratched, unplayable DVDs from Blockbusters I still want a little entertainment in my life (although spending money on anything but essentials feels like a crime at the moment) so I've taken to rooting through the bargain DVDs in ASDA and Tesco in the hope of finding a few gems. ...

I only read a review of this film yesterday & wished I could see this film! Well, the Goddess of TV apparently heard me - it was on HBO Comedy later on that night!! :) /big grin/ Unfortunately I only saw the 2nd part of the movie - but enough to make me decide: this one is a keeper! I was appalled to see Hugh Grant & ...

I think I'm in the minority when I say I really enjoyed this film! I never was a big fan of Hugh Grant and tended to stay away from films he was in, but I saw Music and Lyrics on sale at play.com a few months ago for £2 and decided to take a chance. Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore star as Alex Fetcher, an 80s has been, and ...

I would love to say that it was not my idea to go and see the film Music and Lyrics when it came out in the cinema. But I convinced my wife to go and see it with me, despite the fact that she is really not into that kind of thing at all. The terrible secret is that I am actually a big fan of Hugh Grant (as long as he is not playing a bumbling ...

as a avid fan of pretty much all romantic comedies i was keen to spend one cosy saturday evening curled up in my living room with a group of friends and a large bowl of popcorn watching this cheesy and hilarious romantic comedy. the story is clever, the acting is pretty reasonable and both Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore take a reasonable shot at ...

Although at times this is a fairly predicatbale romantic comedy I did find it had me humming a happy tune after watching it and it is a nice feel good movie which is very good at achieving what it sets out to do, namely entertain the viewer without really pushing any new boundaries. Cast List Hugh Grant ... Alex Fletcher ...

If you ever wondered what happens to those chart one hit wonders then perhaps the story of Alex Fletcher will explain a part of it. Now he's been asked to write a modern pop song for a modern day teen singing sensation, even though he's never written a decent song in his life. The 80's star is really struggling till he meets his new cleaner Sophie ...

This Film is just amazing! This is my all time favourite film. The story starts with hugh grant and his 80's band POP singing their number one single. When you hear the song you just know that its going to be a good film. Alex fletcher (hugh grant) gets told by his manager he has a meeting with a director of a new tv series, 'Battle of the ...

When I heard that the king and queen of romantic comedies were appearing in a film together, I remember thinking, why haven't they done that before. In fact Notting Hill is one of my favourite films in the world, so when I heard Hugh Grant was in a film with Drew Barrymore the girl who brought us 'The Wedding Singer' & 'Charlie's Angels' I had ...

Over the weekend I managed to have a lazy Saturday afternoon which consisted of nothing more than lying on the sofa and watching films in preparation for a night out later that evening. One of the films I came across on the DVD hard drive was Music and Lyrics which I knew starred Hugh Grant, one of my favourite actors, and so decided to give it a ...

Having heard good things about 'Music and Lyrics' I was really quite looking forward to sitting down and watching it on an evening. I got the popcorn on the ready, set the DVD to play and waited for the credits to roll. As soon as the film began however I knew that I'd wasted my hard earned cash and in paying £4.99 to buy this from Play.com I'd ...

I really enjoyed this film! It's a feel good romantic comedy and well worth a watch (great for a girly night in!). Hugh Grant plays Alex Fletcher an 80's has been from the pop group POP whose solo career in music is a failure. However sucessful young singer Cora Corman (a Christina Aguilera/Britney like pop star) approaches Alex and asks him ...

I was very happy to receive the DVD of Music and Lyrics as a birthday present from my small daughter (with no doubt a bit of advice from her daddy!) and very happily settled down to watch it the other night, ensconced with a glass of wine and a box of chocolates. It was not a fim I had seen at the cinema and did not really know what to expect ...

Music & Lyrics is your bog standard, run of your mill predictable romantic comedy… and I loved it! Of course I am a sucker for this kind of movie and also think that both Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore excel in this kind of movie. In M&L they are both playing their favourite kind of roles, Grant as the slightly flustered, unconfident ...

>>>> Synopsis When washed up 80s pop sensation Alex Fletcher (Hugh Grant) is approached by the current pop princess to write a song for them to perform, he grabs the chance with both hands. The only problem is that whilst he can come up with a tune he can't write lyrics to save his life. Luckily for Alex, he discovers that ...

My partner and I love Hugh Grant films, so when he released this one, we were keen to see it. I also think Drew Barrymore is a great actress so I had quite high expectations about this film because of the quality of the actors starring in it. Music and Lyrics is centred around the character Alex Fletcher, an 80's has-been popstar. He ...

Music and Lyrics is a lovely romantic comedy staring Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore. The film opens with an 80s pop video of a group called “Pop” of which Alex (Hugh Grant) was one of the two lead singers. They appeared to be a Wham equivalent. The song “Pop goes my heart” is really catchy and the video is so funny with Grants 80s ...
