4/4 stars
My very favorite romantic comedy. The cast is amazing, the writing is alternatingly hilarious and subtle, and the use of music is inspired. The real innovation of this movie is to apply the "hyperlink" style of film to a new genre that puts it to good use.

Music and Lyrics
3.5/4 stars
Hugh Grant has been the master of this kind of movie for years, but surprisingly, Drew Barrymore is also becoming a favorite of mine lately. They have an unexpected chemistry in this, a somewhat typical charming, intelligent romantic comedy. The cheesy song that begins and ends the movie (and has been stuck in my head since I first saw it) is just a bonus.
