With “Music and Lyrics,” what it intends is nothing fabulous. It aims to be a fun, romantic, sweet comedy of a man meeting a woman and falling in admire, with a inch at pop culture. It accomplishes this. I saw this on February 14, Valentine’s Day, and wanted exactly as delivered.
Paul McCartney asked in the 1970s what the world needs with another amusing savor song. “Music and Lyrics” is, in film, a comic esteem song.

Hugh Grant plays Alex Fletcher, a has-been pop singer from a defunct duo similar to Wham!, struggles to get his plot as his audience stops caring. Realistic, he knows what he is well-behaved of, but is unsure what his next step should be.
When Cora, a pretentious build of Britney Spears-Shakira-Christina Aguilera of sex-pop, offers him an opportunity to write a song, he runs into pain. He is a melody man, not a lyricist. His lyricist from his feeble band, Pop!, is long gone.
In walks Sophie Fisher, played with charm by the ever-sweet Drew Barrymore. She’s Alex’s temporary plant watering person (and not a very suited one), with a penchant for delivering peppy lyrics under her breath. Despite the scorn of fill-in wordsmith Greg Antonsky, Alex takes a liking to her style. Greg’s angst-style, hopeless lyrics seem off kilter with Alex’s personality.
Embittered from a broken affair with an engaged man, Sophie is uninterested. It is one thing to hum a tune, and it is another to commit to writing a song. However, Alex only has a few days and pressures (begs, really), Sophie to attend.
She acquiesces, and tries to write. Alex and Sophie clash, as he understands the profession of music, and is desperate, and she is quiet stuck on the failed affair.
Both are living in the past, and both need to travel up into 2007 to survive and thrive.
Finally, lyrics are written, and Cora loves them — with a few changes. Cora’s version is laced with faux spirituality and tramped-up seduction. Sophie’s artistic sensibilities are insulted, and pulls the song great to Alex’s chagrin. They argue, break-up, and now, Alex is stuck trying to fix a song.
Can he fix the song on time? Will they figure out how to live in the exhibit day? What about admire (this is a romantic comedy, remember? ) .
A beautiful self-mocking performance is set on by Kristen Johnston as Sophie’s older sister Rhonda, making jabs at her have weight-loss campaign. Brad Garrett as Alex’s agent Chris Riley is apt on the money, as he is both a manager and friend.
Drew Barrymore shows she’s more than the girl next door, but has a kind of Lucille Ball, Jenna Elfman, Meg Ryan mix going on.
Hugh Grant is perfectly cast, and is the better side of himself. He never overplays the role, and yet, does not plunge into the ’stupid Englishman’ persona he occasionally does.
I fully recommend “Music and Lyrics.”

“Music and Lyrics” is a hoot: witty, shiny, beautifully performed by the gleaming Drew Barrymore (as ditzy, charming, dazzling Sophie Fletcher) and the dry of wit, Hugh Grant (as the less celebrated half, Alex Fletcher of a hot 80’s duo, “Pop” obviously patterned after “WHAM”) and briskly paced by director Marc Lawrence.
The sage is light and airy: Fletcher needs relieve writing a song for a Britney clone, Cora. A song that could maybe bring him abet to prominence after twenty years of playing store openings, amusement parks and nostalgia concerts. Sophie, though a partner with her sister in a Weight Loss clinic, is a whiz at writing pop lyrics: presto…match made in heaven!
The interplay between Barrymore and Grant is residence on and the dialogue and yarn are almost up to their obedient timing but they both work hard, though not too as that would deny the comedy, to get this work and in most scenes it does.
“Music and Lyrics” is as light as a crepe filled with caramelized bananas and topped with whipped cream and as such don’t seek information from more from it than a big smile and the scrumptious satisfaction that comes from eating something you have no business bewitching.
