See it Already
Added 11/15/2009
I saw this in the movie theater and loved it. I was happy with the price on amazon and I didn't hesitate to add it into my collection. I rated it 4 stars because I loved it but if I was going with the movie rating system then I'd say it was a three star movie.
I was never a fan of Hugh Grant before but I found him funny and charming in this movie. There was great chemistry between him and Drew Barrymore. I honestly thought Hugh Grant stole the show. He's funny as a 80s popstar has-been. The songs are all original and they're fantastic. I'm even considering buying the soundtrack which is something I rarely do.
Haley Bennet was good as Cora Corman although her acting left a little to be desired but based on her IMDB profile, this was her first feature film, so kudos for her, she held her own against Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore.
What else I can say? Yes it's true the movie is predictable, but you're in for a treat: the cast was well chosen and I knew I would like this movie the moment they showed the 'music video' in the opening credits, so see it already.

Definitely, I did not like it

I was not my kind of romantic comedy. I did not feel a connection between the main characters and that made it hard to like the script. Although Drew Barrimore was great, the rest of the cast were not.

[ Fabulous - had you finger tapping by the end. Ran you up and down like a yoyo wondering if Fletcher's wants would over come good common sense and cause him to lose the girl. Came close to tears and finished with I feel good now smile and feeling! If you didn't like the movie - I can only ask - were you having a bad day?
