Critics Consensus

Though Two Weeks Notice has nothing new to add to the crowded genre, Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock make the movie a pleasant, if predictable, sit.

It is not so bad as to make you dash for the door. But you would not have missed much if you never entered the hall at all.

Its utter prototypicality is tiresome, and its weird plotting and characterisation preclude it from gaining the simplified happy ending it proposes it has arrived at.

Life, love and romance. Timeless. Classic. And very very funny when you've only got Two Weeks Notice.

Started out funny, and Sandra Bullock is brilliant in everything. Movie is still trash though, and the romance was even worse.

Not much of a story and not much chemistry. Formulaic although Grant is uncomfortably charming , as always.

Alot of people are saying this movie is a basic romantic comedy, which is all true! Like what are these people actually expecting from a early 2000's rom-com? It to be less generic? Aside from it being that- it is very enjoyable to watch. Sandra always slays and here she is slaying in this rom-com. The British guy is a basic 1 dimensional charector which slowly becomes less obnoxious and slightly enjoyable. That's saying alot because I can't stand British people. The romantic aspect doesn't really make much sense. He just relies on her because she can make decisions and he can't. No clue why the woman fell in love with him though, like for real. Not a single darn clue. BUT this movie was pretty good. It's a classic. Will I watch it again- ya.

Sandra Bullock, embodying the quintessential American matron, and Hugh Grant, the epitome of a British charmer, fail to spark any compelling or watchable chemistry in Two Weeks Notice.

Over. Done. Finished. A comedy about love at last glance. Two Weeks Notice is a 2002 American romantic comedy film written and directed by Marc Lawrence ❤️ Not bad, but not my favourite either 😐 Meh, it passed the time. Just. 😐 👍🏼👎🏼 Dedicated environmental lawyer Lucy Kelson goes to work for billionaire George Wade as part of a deal to preserve a community center. Indecisive and weak-willed George grows dependent on Lucy's guidance on everything from legal matters to clothing. Exasperated, Lucy gives notice and picks Harvard graduate June Carter as her replacement. As Lucy's time at the firm nears an end, she grows jealous of June and has second thoughts about leaving George.
