A genuine stinker of a film. Hugh Grant acts an 80s wash-up singer who's faced with writing a song for the biggest artist in the world. In his crayzee plant-watering girl, he finds a lyricist. And as the back of the DVD reads, "sweet music develops, in more than one way". Having watched this film, I felt as though Bernard Herrmann's epic brass for "Cape Fear" was upon me. Lingering death. No rom-com here. Avoid.
