The Rewrite - 10/10/2014
IMDB lists this film as a romantic comedy, a I must admit I am struggling to find where the romance and definitely where the comedy was.
Hugh Grant plays an out of work screen writer who takes a job as a college teacher to pass on his knowledge. There he smarms his way through a class of beauty models, two male geeks and a single mum.
As much as I enjoyed some of the film references, the film itself is very slow, predictable, and not very interesting. It is a very unfunny version of School Of Rock. Down on his luck, starts a teaching job, good things happen because of it and then he continues to be a teacher realising he enjoys it...just without the laughs or the cool music.
This is definitely a contender for one of the worst films of the year.
