The Rewrite (DVD)

One professional reviewer called this movie "almost good." I give it a "complete good" because the movie takes place in Binghamton, New York where I grew up. The selected cast is truly excellent to add spice to its predictable good humor. For me, it was two movies in one. First, a typically worthy Hugh Grant movie and storyline - and second - a constant background tribute to the many idiosyncrasies of Binghamton. The director, Marc Lawrence, graduated from Binghamton University. I was pleased that the area is still portrayed for its previous noteworthy accomplishments and unique history . . . and the script is thankfully and easily fun.
