Did You Hear About the Morgans? (2009) YIFY - Download Movie TORRENT

Did You Hear About The Morgans stars Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker, two actors I take joy in watching so I was looking forward to this movie, while fearing the worst after not exactly hearing good things.Of course the premise is preposterous- an estranged couple witnesses a murder after an attempt at a reconciliatory dinner in New York City, and is shipped off to a remote part of Wyoming as part of a witness protection program. Hugh Grant is predictably funny in this film, with his usual self-deprecating British humor, and desperate, wretched faces. He has a lot of funny one-liners, one of which is that he could hear "his own cells dividing" after their first night in Ray, Wyoming. He is desperately trying to win back the affection of Meryl, his wife who he cheated on, and to get himself pardoned for his mistake. She is less able to forgive and forget but evidently, being in this new setting will be a huge help for both of them, a way of bonding in the harsh countryside. There were funny dialogues and even true ones, shedding light on the problems of couples- cheating, fighting, infertility etc. It was also a window- though very much exaggerated- into the soul of two hard working New Yorkers, something I could relate to. Clichés abound, however, and are too many to name but here are a few- Meryl is a neurotic, overstressed and controlling New Yorker, a vegetarian and member of PETA (I have nothing against that, I am as well!). People who do not live in big cities are gun toting, bargain shopping, meat eating Republicans. Assistants are blackberry crazed peons, and so on. I very much liked the scene where they tell each other their wedding vows again, particularly Hugh Grant's to Meryl, an original, sweet, self-written testament of his love and promise of devotion to her. There was lots of wit written into the dialogues of this film which made it pleasant to watch, at times. Fabio liked this more than Invictus but I have to say the great amounts of rodeo scenes, cow milking and bear attacks were too much for me. The end bordered on the ridiculous but the very last scene of the movie was touching and slightly made of for it, at least leaving me with a nice final impression. If this movie is taken as a simple, light, romantic comedy it can be enjoyed, but do not expect too much from the Morgans.My rating: 6 Fabio's: 7.5 Total score: 13.5 http://paulinasmovies.blogspot.com

Not that bad

I didn't bother to see this in a theater because of the poor reviews, but finally rented it. I think this is actually a pretty funny movie. It is certainly predictable, perhaps trite and derivative, but it's well cast and written, and provided an entertaining evening for my wife and me. Seeing the extra features on the DVD helped, as it's obvious that the cast and director were having a lot of fun making the film. The excellent cast's sense of enjoyment came through to me, and increased my enjoyment.Definitely watch the extra features. One in particular made me want to go play with a bear.
