BRIEF INTRODUCTION:
A bad haircut, a bad fashion style and only one hit song are the only things that people would remember of Alex Fletcher (Hugh Grant), an 80's member of disbanded boy band known as the POP. His was seen performing solo in high school reunions and amusement parks. Enter Cora Corman, the newest teenage pop icon and the savior of Alex's not so bright career. He was asked by Cora to write a song and it should be entitled "Way Back Into Love." The only catch is, he should finish it in 48 hours.

While collaborating with a lyricist recommended by his long time manager, his substitute plant caretaker Sophie accidentally rattled lines that are good for the song. He offered Sophie to be his lyricist and Sophie agreed. That was the start of a good songwriting relationship.

MY IMPRESSION:
Positive:
I really like this movie even though for some people this movie is corny. I must say that I'm just a romantic person who loves romantic comedy films such as this. I liked the scene when Sophie was about to walk out of the concert venue when she thought that Alex took all the credits of composing the song all by himself, only to prove herself wrong about it. Alex sang a song he composed all on his own entitled "Don't Write Me Off telling the things that happened between him and Sophie. In the song, he tried to say sorry to Sophie in his own little way. Isn't that sweet??!!!!!

Negative:
Nothing

MY RECOMMENDATION:
This movie is recommended for those who are romantic, in love, young at heart and for those who want to brighten up their day.
