Movie Review: Two Weeks Notice

Wednesday, October 21, 2009
Synopsis: Millionaire George Wade doesn't make a move without Lucy Kelson, his multi-tasking Chief Counsel at the Wade Corporation. A brilliant attorney with a strategic mind, she also has an ulcer and doesn't get much sleep. It's not the job that's getting to her--it's George. Smart, charming and undeniably self-absorbed, he treats her more like a nanny than a Harvard-trained lawyer--and can barely choose a tie without her help. Now, after five years of calling the shots, on everything from his clothes to his divorce settlements, Lucy Kelson is calling it quits. Although George makes it difficult for Lucy to leave the Wade Corporation, he finally agrees to let her go--but only if she finds her own replacement. After a challenging search, she hires an ambitious young lawyer with an obvious eye on her wealthy new boss. Finally free of George and his 24-hour requests, Lucy is ready to change course and join her devoted boyfriend on an adventure at sea. Or is she? Confronted with the fact that Lucy is literally sailing out of his life, George faces a decision of his own: is it ever too late to say "I love you"?

Starring: Sandra Bullock, Hugh Grant, Alicia Witt, Dana Ivey, Robert Klein
Directed by: Marc D. Lawrence
U.S. Rating: PG-13

Definitely a great cast for a great plot. Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant were the perfect match on this amazing and really funny plot about George, the childish multimillionaire who can't do absolutely anything without his personal lawyer and assistant, Lucy. Lucy is a brilliant and hard worker lawyer from Harvard that ended up working for George when she met him out of his office building to discuss a possible demolition of a community center. Once she starts working for him, she'll become more than his lawyer and personal assistance, he won't be able to take a single step or decision without consulting Lucy about it. An amazing plot loaded with hilarious and entertaining scenes and situations from the very first minute to the last scene of the movie. Totally recommended!

What did I like from this movie?

1. I really enjoyed Hugh Grant's performance in this movie. He did a great job for his role
2. Sandra Bullock, cute... as usual, plays an excellent role along with Hugh Grant, working a perfect match, and reflecting a great chemistry in this work and love relationship
3. Congratulations on the baby! Such a hilarious situation!... What baby?... what baby?!

What did I dislike from this movie?

1. There were acouple of silly situations that I personally didn't like, for example, the moment when Sandra Bullock gets hit by the tennis ball, it was so fake!

I would rate this movie with a 4/5
