5/10
Two great leads let down by a substandard script
15 November 2020
Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock are really funny in this, I bet everyone watching could tell they had some chemistry even when they thought the other to be irritating. They both have a very natural screen presence.

On the other hand the script isn't the best, especially after the first 30 minutes or so, there were some really cute moments between Grant and Bullock but when they weren't on screen it was quite boring, the other stars weren't as good as them. But both Grant and Bullock's characters (a rich toff and clever secretary) were great; but the film didn't have enough substance to leave a lasting impression or anything too unconventional to make it too interesting.

5/10: Decent for a romantic comedy
