Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
It's far from perfect, but "The Rewrite" is the kind of witty, enjoyable star vehicle in sadly short supply on screens these days.

Before it was done to death, there was something terribly appealing about Grant's heroes, and many of his romantic comedies -- something "The Rewrite" nicely reminds us of.

rotten:
The Rewrite wants to be a film about the messiness of life but it only has Hollywood cliches to work with.

rotten:
Another Hugh Grant comedy that follows the dots without much wit ...

fresh:
A full two decades after "Four Weddings and a Funeral," Hugh Grant still does that stammering, understated, witty and dashing thing as well as anyone in the business.
