Did You Hear About the Morgans? starring Hugh Grant & Sarah Jessica Parker
Did You Hear About the Morgans? starring Hugh Grant & Sarah Jessica Parker. Feat. Sam Elliott and Mary Steenburgen.

Successful and busy New Yorkers, Meryl (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Paul Morgan (Hugh Grant) used to be a happily married couple until Paul cheated. Now, they are separated and despite Paul’s constant efforts, Meryl doesn’t seem like she will forgive him anytime soon. However one night, they witness a murder and end up in the witness protection program, in a very small town in Wyoming. They will have to learn how to live without the city, without the technology, and worst, with each other.  Can they survive the hitman tracking him, and not drive each other and their protectors Carl (Sam Elliot) and Emma Wheeler (Mary Steenburgen) crazy in the process?

**

Written and directed by Marc Lawrence, Did You Hear About The Morgans? Is an utterly predictable yet sufficiently enjoyable film. Yes, it is a typical Hugh Grant movie playing a typical Hugh Grant character. And yes, Sarah Jessica Parker once again plays a successful New Yorker who is in love with New York. But it really doesn’t matter. Because it is harmless good time, suitable for when you want an easy-going film with actors you are familiar with. It is not hilarious in the comedy department, though. It is just enough to make you grin a couple of times.

While nothing to write home about, it is not bad enough to deserve its current 4.4 user ranking on IMDB. It might deserve that, or maybe less, in the originality department, but definitely not as a movie in whole.

Favorite Lines:

Paul (Hugh Grant): I love you. Do you still love me at all?

Meryl (Sarah Jessica Parker): I don’t know if I can sort of love you or love you a little.

Paul: Well, I’m fine with it. Honestly, I can get by with a little less love for a while. Maybe years.

**

Paul and his assistant are discussing what else Paul can get for Meryl.

Paul’s Assistant: You can buy a black hole.

Paul: I am not sure a black hole sends out the right message at this point in our relationship.

    Hilarious romantic comedy! I’m sorry, I cannot say more than that, because I am not a fan of Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker; though, I love Mary Steenburgen…
    My favourite scene was the one with the Bear!!!! 🙂

    🙂 I loved a lot of scenes. Funny, I thought this wasn’t hilarious in general but very fun and adorable. I like them both, but they have their better moments and this was one of them. And I think Hugh Grant makes one cute 50 year-old! 🙂 I have loved Steenburgen since Back to the Future 3.

    My favorite scenes? The bear is sure one of them but I loved it everytime they got shocked at the cleanliness, quietness and the cheapness of stuff, as well as the safety of the place.:)

In the mood for a fun romcom novel?
