It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

In 'Two Weeks Notice' and especially 'Music and Lyrics' Marc Lawrence and Hugh Grant collaborated to create two above average romantic comedies. However, third time is not the charm.The issue for me with this film is that the idea of city slickers being forced to live in the country has been done many times before...and better. While there are new ideas within this film you can't help but think with the talent involved a more original idea wouldn't have been better.Full credit though to Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker for making the most of the script they were given. OK so they are playing characters that they've played many times elsewhere but it's what we know them for so are prepared to go along with it. While the film is predictable it is also mildly entertaining and well performed - you can't ask for much more than that.Grant remains the king of rom-coms and Lawrence an adapt writer/director. I look forward to their fourth collaboration.

"Did You Hear About the Morgans?" is a typical cliché chick flick, a soggy romantic comedy that tries to incorporate comedy. But the end result was a fairly tame and forgettable result.The story is about separated couple Paul Morgan (played by Hugh Grant) and Meryl Morgan (played by Sarah Jessica Parker) who witness a murder and have to go into witness protection in a very unfamiliar environment far away from their familiar environment of New York. Being flown to Wyoming, the couple are left in the custody of Clay Wheeler (played by Sam Elliott) and Emma Wheeler (played by Mary Steenburgen).Storywise, then "Did You Hear About the Morgans?" did have some potential here and there, but it ultimately failed because there was no chemistry between Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker, and most scenes between them came off as horribly forced and unnatural.It was actually the performance of Sam Elliott and Mary Steenburgen that carried the movie.For a romantic comedy, then "Did You Hear About the Morgans?" was a movie that came and passed without leaving a mark anywhere.

Apparently my girlfriend likes the type of Romantic Comedy movie that people from the big city wind up in rural areas and have to cope with their surroundings. I found three of these type movies among the 15 or so movies we purchased for $1 each earlier this year. Yesterday, I watched all three. This movie stood out with more comedy and laughs than the others. Hugh Grant delivers good comedy when needed and Sam Elliot and Mary Steenbergen deliver some comic lines as well. At times Sarah delivers an occasional punch line.I found myself laughing pretty good at this one. The ending is mildly predictable, in a slightly unpredictable way, but you can guess that the couple will eventually get together. The reason they mend their fences more the reason to watch the story. Plus the ending is tension filled to a degree. For a laugh I recommend it.

...if you didn't consider yourself lucky! In this film, Hugh Grant is paired with Sarah Jessica Parker in perhaps the worst pairing since Vanilla Ice and Naomi Campbell in Cool As Ice. They play a fashionably separated, New York City power couple, who are forced into witness protection after witnessing a murder. These two city folks are put in the care of an elderly U.S. Marshall and his wife, in the middle of nowhere Montana. Let the fun times begin! Didn't Tim Allen and Kirstie Alley do this a decade earlier in Amish country? At least For Richer or Poorer could get a few cheap laughs here and there, but not the Morgans. The Morgans have no chemistry what-so-ever and their film is painfully slow and predictable. Hugh Grant is usually funny, but in this film, every attempt at humor is snuffed out by Sarah Jessica Parker, who has no idea what she's doing. Parker is just one of these people who was lucky enough to find her perfect role and she was amazing in it, but everything I've seen her in since Sex & The City has been awful! Did You Hear About The Morgans has been done, more than once, and if you watch this movie and can't tell what's going to happen, twenty minutes a head of time, then you haven't seen too many movies. This has got to be one of the biggest waste of money in recent Hollywood history and if you decide to watch it, then you're dumber than the casting director who thought pairing Grant and Parker was a good idea.
