Really NOT as bad as I expected it to be or these type of movies are.This 1 was actually pretty good which suprised me.I expected more of a sappy crappy romantic comedy but this was more of a story about a TV producer & her struggle to bring up the ratings at a last place morning show while trying to keep the 2 cohosts from ripping each other apart.

"Morning Glory" is a film about Becky Fuller (Rachel McAdams) and her career as a television producer. Her life starts to turn upside down after she was fired on her job, found a new one, and struggles on it. Good comedy storyline and Harrison Ford in it are those good reasons to watch it. The story is really good, potentially an inspiring one. Enough comedy. Enough drama. Enough romance. Very nice. I must say, this movie has a smooth sail on the sea. Only distracted me was the character Mike Pomeroy which I question his ability of newscasting. Worth the watch. =)

It's amazing when a movie with a good cast can't seem to come together. Such as the case here with Morning Glory, which has a great setup - a young executive producer (McAdams) tries to turn around a last place morning show by convincing a legendary broadcaster (Ford) to team up with the show's perky co-host (Keaton). Unfortunately, the film tries too hard to make McAdams socially awkward - when will directors realize that people this hot are NEVER this awkward in real life? After the first 20 minutes, Keaton is utterly wasted. The only silver lining is Ford, who plays the gumpy and gruff veteran so well he's the heart of this movie. Netflix this one, if you're interested.
