Sandra Bullock is a high-IQ lawyer with exemplary liberal ideals; Hugh Grant an unrepentant capitalist millionaire trying to redevelop her neighbourhood.
He strikes a bargain with her, hiring her first-class mind in exchange for preserving the imperilled suburb, but of course it's not that simple.
This is mindless fun, with Grant enjoying his naughtyboy witticisms, and Bullock playing the kind of girl she does best: someone who's sweet and pretty, but always winds up ordering Chinese takeaway for one. With commentary, doc and additional scenes.
