he's the perfect combination of stiff upper-lip adorably floppy hair and corny one-liners welcome to watchmojo.com our picks for the top ten cheesy Hugh Grant movie moments before we begin we publish new content every day so be sure to subscribe to our Channel and ring the bell to get notified about our latest videos for this list we're looking back at some of Hugh Grant's na first ever movie moments including those that have since become iconic scenes in their own rights number 10 shag therapy Bridget Jones The Edge of Reason Hugh Grant seemingly channeled his inner Austin Powers as Daniel cleaver Bridget Jones's sex-obsessed ex especially in this 2004 sequel back off cleaver I'll report you to a sexual harassment tribunal I'm a serious journalist is that your most serious curtains the character features only briefly in author Helen Fielding's original follow-up novel but cleavers role was beefed up for the film and it's a good job - a cleaver reacquaint himself with bridget laying on some suitably sleazy lines in doing so you still yes I am and I intend to be for a very very long time good X number do you know what a fan I am of any woman married to Mark Darcy throughout the film grunts and his scene-stealing best but this moment reminds us all of Daniels morally questionable agenda that's about you still shagging anything that moves he's mad about that no shagging whatsoever I mean shag therapy number nine let's dance Florence Foster Jenkins this film may be most notable for allowing Meryl Streep to unleash some of the worst singing ever seen in cinema but Hugh Grant also hits a few comical bum notes of his own particularly with his moves on the dance floor grunts came out of semi-retirement to play this role and it was worth it for this epic display of 1940's awkward dancing this is a house party we'd all like to be at even if grants character will insist on giving a faintly toe-curling performance [Music] number eight we're dream the lair of the white worm almost any actor with assaults has at least one film they did before they were particularly famous but they probably regret bearing in for grant that film has to be forgotten 80's horror heap the lair of the white worm loosely based on the Bram Stoker novel of the same name it's a largely forgettable film save for one astonishingly bizarre dream sequence grant is front and center for a scene that features stockings suspenders wrestling and the Wiz bitter phallic symbolism ever puts a film all wrapped up in a synthy soundtrack and cringy airline pilot setup number seven the fights Bridget Jones's Diary grant was truly in his element playing Bridget Jones's playboy love interest in the original Bridget Jones I should have done this years ago dumb one this switching between seductive and sleazy Daniel cleavers cheesiest moment is probably shared with Colin Firth's Mark Darcy during the love rivals suitably childish fistfight at the end the actors famously improvise their on-screen tussle without choreography of any kind in an attempt to make it look as juvenile and silly as possible and as the end result proves they definitely outdid themselves [Music] number six forget about debts Mickey blue eyes despite arriving at the height of grants fame in the US Mickey blue eyes became a largely forgettable crime comedy say for this incredible and incredibly ridiculous moments hey forget about it co-star James Caan reportedly nicknamed grunt as whippy because of his nervous nature onset and his character's nibs were for all to see during this brilliantly bizarre exchange in which Khan tries to teach you how to speak like a mobster get the hell out of here no eyes get the hell out of here his various attempts at saying the words forget about it ask something to behold forget about it number five the dance Love Actually not for the first time Hugh Grant's moves proved mighty memorable this Christmas rom-com tends to divide popular opinion but in grunts lovable Prime Minister audiences were at least treated to a political leader everyone could get behind grant even found time to tease co-star Billy Bob Thornton about his real-life fear of antique furniture going to gout 500 year old pieces to the American actor in between takes all of which makes this astonishing bit of dead dancing to the pop hits jump almost forgivable well don't most he was actually admitted they doesn't like this scene but the rest of us can't get enough Mary I've been thinking can we move the Japanese ambassador to four o'clock tomorrow said mister number four just a kill standing in front of a boy Notting Hill coming after some iffy film projects and the infamous and embarrassing early nineties scandal of his Notting Hill was arguably the movie which resurrected this affable Englishman's flagging film career can I just say no to kind request and its most memorable moments is easily this predictable but quotable declaration of love true much of the cheese's dealt out by Julia Roberts here but Hughes bumbling bashfulness helps ramp up the romantic tension to unprecedented Heights they're just too many pictures of you too many films you know you'd go and I'd be well buggered after all he's also just a boy standing in front of a girl I'm also just a girl standing in front of a boy asking him to love her number three is it still raining Four Weddings and a funeral the film that kick-started the Hugh Grant phenomenon this story goes that he landed this part after playing a recording of his best man speech at his brother's wedding whatever the truth it did the trick with Grant taking the first of many many collaborations with filmmaker Richard Curtis and this scene opposite Andie MacDowell is a favorite for for weddings fans the first time in my whole life I realized I totally and utterly loved one person and it wasn't the person standing next to me and the veil it's the person standing opposite me now running off their relationship with a passionate embrace in the pouring rain it's every bit as cliched as it sounds in fact this moment is part of the reason that rom-com cliches even exist I do number two pop goes my heart's music and lyrics live sleep based on the career experiences of Andrew Ridgeley The Forgotten half of worm music and lyrics challenges grant to sing the planet bin for the film's vocal part to be dubbed over using a trained vocalist however after a bit of practice he was convinced to sing all of it himself including the big concert finale [Music] so top marks for efforts but the entire thing is still built on being deliberately cheesy that doesn't mean it's not brilliant though [Music] number one killing me softly about a boy the rom-com specialist delivers arguably his finest performance as the emotionally stunted will Freeman in this unprecedented adaptation of Nick Hornby's novel [Music] Brad Pitt reportedly turned down the role of will prior to Hugh taking the parts and it's a good job II did because only Hugh could have ever made this final scene so painfully perfect and that's definitely a compliment [Music] Grint literally takes center stage alongside a young nicholas hoult for a defiant rendition of killing me softly displaying all of his character qualities that we've come to love Integra see awkwardness self-deprecation and cheese do you agree with our picks check out these other great clips from WatchMojo UK and subscribe for more great content [Music]
