SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

mark.waltz He's trying too hard to be charming and she's trying too hard to be obnoxious. He fails, but she succeeds. The British droll charm is getting old for Hugh, playing an Arthur like billionaire minus the booze and Liza. She's trying to be Gloria Alred, but just fails miserably. Together, we're supposed to believe that they are a match made in heaven, but the angels would have blasted them out due to the sparks they make, and it isn't a romantic one. If that isn't bad enough, a cameo appearance by a future President really added self indulgent gas to the film overall. The lack of star quality doesn't have an effect on the New York City scenery, heading out of Manhattan as Bullock's character tries to save a Coney Island community center. Dana Ivey and Robert Klein score as her parents, and many New York theater and soap actors round out the cast in a sensational ensemble. But the script just fails to convince me that these two characters would be the Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant of the millennium, lacking in class and humor. It also tries to be very New York millennium cool, taking on a Mets game with a gag that falls flat and the law community in a way that truly rings false.

Python Hyena Two Weeks Notice (2002): Dir: Marc Lawrence / Cast: Hugh Grant, Sandra Bullock, Alicia Witt, Dana Ivey, Robert Klein: Boring romantic comedy that is about as much fun as a pap smear test. It is the kind of film where one brings sleeping pills in hopes that they put him to sleep before the film does. Title represents time factor for which Sandra Bullock claims to be working for Hugh Grant but it really indicates the limits before they come together. Bullock plays an attorney struggling to save a shelter. She refers to Hugh Grant who is in charge of the wreckage and hires her on his staff. She is not impressed. She is awakened by his bored phone calls, paged at a wedding ceremony, etc. This film is so boring that if the phone rang while two people viewed it then both would scramble to answer it. Director Marc Lawrence does an uninspiring job with this bland production. There is nothing romantic about it and all it really accomplishes is taking two appealing leads and making them as dull as possible devoid of charm. Grant does his best with his wit and charm but cannot pull his role above conventions. Bullock is starting to repeat herself with these embarrassing romantic roles. In supporting roles are Alicia Witt as his replacement with obvious intentions. Dana Ivey is also featured. This junk is without a shred of originality. Its screenplay consists of two weeks worth of garbage. Score: 1 / 10

studioAT Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock have based their careers on films such as this one, so it was no great surprise to see them teaming up for this effort scripted and directed by Marc Lawrence (who had previously worked with Bullock and would work with Grant on a further three films).Both stars play the type of characters we expect from them,the only difference being that here they are backed up by strong dialogue and for the most part a good storyline. Lawrence clearly seems to be aiming to make an old fashioned style rom-com and in that respect he succeeds.The film does feel very much on the heads of its stars though. There is no comic support to be found from any of the other minor characters and this means that for much of the films run we have either Bullock or Grant in every scene. And that's a lot of bumbling Grant or neurotic Bullock for an audience to take.As I said, the story is mostly well written apart from the end that feels very rushed and not to natural either. It's a shame because on the whole this film is an easy going, enjoyable rom-com to watch.

SnoopyStyle Lucy Kelson (Sandra Bullock) is a community organizer lawyer fighting big corporate real estate developers. She's trying to save a community center on Coney Island. George Wade (Hugh Grant) is a rich developer who needs a lead counsel who proposes to save the center if she works for him. She becomes more and more his babysitter for his ridiculousness.The premise seems really silly. How do you slap together these two disparate characters? It would be much better to cut out the first 15 minutes. The fact is Bullock and Grant are great rom-com actors. They both do that affable schtick with perfect comedic timing. They are really the same actor. It's just that one is wearing a dress.
