 "Grant isn't Cary and Bullock isn't Katherine."
-- The Wolf, IOFILM.CO.UK
 "A romantic comedy that's both funny and warmhearted."
-- Glenn Whipp, LOS ANGELES DAILY NEWS
"Succeeds only because Bullock and Grant were made to share the silver screen."
-- Jeffrey Westhoff, NORTHWEST HERALD (CRYSTAL LAKE, IL)
"It was only a matter of time before some savvy producer saw the potential success inherent in the mixture of Bullock Bubble and Hugh Goo."
-- Scott Weinberg, EFILMCRITIC.COM
"It’s a treat – a delightful, witty, improbable romantic comedy with a zippy jazzy score… Grant and Bullock make it look as though they are having so much fun."
-- Urban Cinefile Critics, URBAN CINEFILE
"So routine, familiar and predictable, it raises the possibility that it wrote itself as a newly automated Final Draft computer program."
-- Doris Toumarkine, FILM JOURNAL INTERNATIONAL
"Like a medium-grade network sitcom--mostly inoffensive, fitfully amusing, but ultimately so weightless that a decent draft in the auditorium might blow it off the screen."
-- Frank Swietek, ONE GUY'S OPINION
"For once, a movie does not proclaim the truth about two love-struck somebodies, but permits them time and space to convince us of that all on their own."
-- Steven Snyder, GREATER MILWAUKEE TODAY
"Two Weeks Notice has appeal beyond being a Sandra Bullock vehicle or a standard romantic comedy."
-- Norm Schrager, FILMCRITIC.COM
"According to the script, Grant and Bullock's characters are made for each other. But you'd never guess that from the performances."
-- Jamie Russell, BBCI FILMS
"Featherweight romantic comedy has a few nice twists in a standard plot and the charisma of Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock."
-- James Rocchi, NETFLIX
"This is [Sandra] Bullock and [Hugh] Grant's show all the way, and they make the most out of a tried-and-true formula."
-- Dustin Putman, THEMOVIEBOY.COM
"It's mindless junk like this that makes you appreciate original romantic comedies like Punch-Drunk Love."
-- Jon Popick, PLANET SICK-BOY

"Here's a romantic comedy in which the stars actually have some believable chemistry."
-- Jeff Vice, DESERET NEWS, SALT LAKE CITY
"Two Weeks Notice is one of the more shallow romantic comedies of the year, yet also without a doubt one of the most genuinely funny."
-- Joshua Tyler, FILM HOBBIT
"...a guiltless film for nice evening out."
-- Tony Toscano, TALKING PICTURES
"It's just not very smart."
-- Kate Sullivan, L.A. WEEKLY
"A charming, banter-filled comedy... one of those airy cinematic bon bons whose aims -- and by extension, accomplishments -- seem deceptively slight on the surface."
-- Brent Simon, ENTERTAINMENT TODAY
"even after 90 minutes of playing opposite each other Bullock and Grant still look ill at ease sharing the same scene. What should have been a painless time-killer becomes instead a grating endurance test."
-- James Sanford, JAMES SANFORD ON FILM
"Hugh Grant’s act is so consuming that sometimes it’s difficult to tell who the other actors in the movie are."
-- Craig Roush, KINNOPIO'S MOVIE REVIEWS
"Some actors have so much charisma that you'd be happy to listen to them reading the phone book. Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock are two such likeable actors."
-- Steve Rhodes, STEVE RHODES' INTERNET REVIEWS
"...routine, harmless diversion and little else."
-- John J. Puccio, DVDTOWN.COM
"The respective charms of Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant have worn threadbare."
-- Jonathan R. Perry, TYLER MORNING TELEGRAPH (TEXAS)

ROTTEN 34%
Avg. Rating: 5.6/10 |
"Instead of using George and Lucy's most obvious differences to ignite sparks, Lawrence desperately looks elsewhere, seizing on George's haplessness and Lucy's personality tics."
-- Stephanie Zacharek, SALON.COM
"The movie is hardly a masterpiece, but it does mark Ms. Bullock's best work in some time."
-- Chris Vognar, DALLAS MORNING NEWS
"The hard-to-predict and absolutely essential chemistry between the down-to-earth Bullock and the nonchalant Grant proves to be sensational, and everything meshes in this elegant entertainment."
-- Kevin Thomas, LOS ANGELES TIMES
"Apparently, romantic comedy with a fresh point of view just doesn't figure in the present Hollywood program."
-- Susan Stark, DETROIT NEWS
"I'd watch these two together again in a New York minute."
-- Lisa Schwarzbaum, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
"An affable but undernourished romantic comedy that fails to match the freshness of the actress-producer and writer's previous collaboration, Miss Congeniality."
-- David Rooney, VARIETY
"This thing works on no level whatsoever for me."
-- Richard Roeper, EBERT & ROEPER
"This is the kind of movie where the big scene is a man shot out of a cannon into a vat of ice cream."
-- Rex Reed, NEW YORK OBSERVER
"The film's essentially over by the meet-cute."
-- Ed Park, VILLAGE VOICE
"I hated every minute of it."
-- Michael O'Sullivan, WASHINGTON POST

" Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant make a great team, but this predictable romantic comedy should get a pink slip."
-- Bill Pearis, CITYSEARCH
