Did You Hear About the Morgans? Movie Review

Firstly, let me say that I am a Sarah Jessica Parker and Hugh Grant fan… perhaps just not in the same movie, and certainly not as a couple, married or otherwise. There was absolutely no chemistry between these two.
The story was a nice change from the norm, a New York couple, recently separated at the hands of infidelity, witness a murder and are forced into witness relocation in the sticks of Montana or Wyoming.The state is irrelevant, it’s the surroundings that make the point, the polar opposite of NY City. These two separated love birds have no choice but to shack up together and await their returned to their much loved New York to testify against the killer.
I would call this movie “cutesy”. There were a couple of chuckles, and the supporting characters were fantastic, but the chemistry that should have held this movie together just never made it to the big screen.
I give this movie 4 ‘cans of bear spray’ out of 10.
Hugh Grant’s former girlfriend blames watch for their breakup

Jemima Khan has blamed an Italian Panerai watch for her break up with Hugh Grant. Hugh Grant had gifted the silver and black watch to Jemima Khan when they started seeing each other and she was rarely seen without the watch in the two years before they broke up.
Jemima Khan, in an interview with Vogue Magazine, said that the she and Hugh Grant were having a strained relationship and she admits to scouting for signs for her to break up with Hugh. The breakdown of the watch was a clear cut signal for her that the relationship had run its course.
The way I see it, if someone is out there looking for signs, they will take anything and tailor it with their imagination and manifest it into a sign. At least Hugh was not told that Jemima was breaking up with him because her neighbor’s cat broke up with her rowdy boyfriend and it was a sign that Hugh should go too. (Hey, I am just saying)
