{movie} music and lyrics (2006)

Has-been and former 1980s pop star Alex Fletcher (Hugh Grant) gets the comeback chance of a lifetime thanks to quirky lyricist Sophie (Drew Barrymore) in this romantic comedy. When teen singing sensation Cora Corman asks Alex to write a song and record the duet with her, Alex can't refuse -- but he also can't write lyrics. Alex's luck changes when he meets Sophie, and when the two sit down to write, the chemistry turns solid gold.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: *** Not a bad little movie. Drew Barrymore and Hugh Grant aren't really that believable as a couple and the story is a bit weak in parts, but overall it's a decent little romantic comedy. The music video at the beginning is worth the rental alone.
