Did You Hear About the Morgans? : Movie Review


The most entertaining moment of "Did You Hear About the Morgans?" came halfway through the press screening, during yet another scene of middle-aged bickering. Hugh Grant, one-half of a recently separated New York power couple, sputters an excuse for his infidelity to his estranged wife. "I'm not perfect," he says. "I'm human. I made a mistake." At which point the woman next to me cracked, "That's what Tiger said!"

Unfortunately, not everyone will be so fortunate in their random seat mates. So in case you're still on the fence about this shambling wreck of a romantic comedy (which is neither romantic nor comic), let me help by saying that you have already seen this movie. You may have seen it on the Hallmark channel, or Lifetime, or an old episode of "Who's the Boss?" Although, to be fair, "Who's the Boss?" had better writing.
