Really tried to like it but unless you're into really bad singing this movie is not for you. Streep, Grant and Helberg did their best but not enough to save it. Meryl will in all likelihood receive various award nominations.

I didn't know Hugh Grant was such a wonderful actor until now. What a delicious performance from Simon Helberg too! Thoroughly satisfying, sensitive and beautifully nuanced movie.

I couldn't stop laughing at this amazing piece of creative cinema. You felt as though you had stepped back in time. Florence was surely unique, as a passionate singer who couldn't sing. The acting from all the main characters was brilliant. Watch this movie it will brighten up your day.
