The 22nd year of being Ryan Hartley, documented.

It’s Hugh Grant playing Hugh Grant again, but this time he’s an 80’s has-been trying to write a pop-song for some generic Britney-Character. Unfortunately, he only writes music. Right on cue Drew Barrymore appears as some sort of lyric-savant. Much quirky banter ensues. There’s a funny line about Nazis. Before you can say formulaic plot, they fall in love, fight and then make up. The 80’s music video at the start is, however, sheer comic genius.  It’s not ‘tears of laughter’ funny, but I did chuckle occasionally and ‘Pop Goes my Heart’ now has a special place on my playlist.
