As good a Hollywood rom-com as you’re likely to find. Hugh Grant continues his ironic self-mocking persona, Drew Barrymore does a good quirky but not too kooky love interest, there’s a simultaneous parodic and loving recreation of the kind of eighties pop music I hated (now it has a nostalgic whiff to it), and the story’s lean and to the point without any flabby diversions or sub-plots.
