Pleasant but nothing special Submitted on: 2009-10-16 |
|
There's nothing to hate in this film, except maybe the little girl, so I give it three stars. It boasts a fine cast but the script is so sappy and predictable that it doesn't make good use of them. I have liked Sandra Bullock in everything else I've seen her in but here she seems awfully lackluster. Harry Connick Jr is wonderful to look at. Again his part is so goofy; he had a crush on the high school star and he's still worshipping her. There's nothing to believe that he has grown since high school or that he sees her as an adult--not just the girl he idolized back then. So we're supposed to believe that this will be the romance that will work for them, unlike the marriage she's just left. It's not very realistic but it is rather pleasant and there's nothing to really hate here...except the daughter. Someone make a count of how many 10 year old girls written into movie scripts who either have freckles, frizzy hair or glasses and terrible names, who we are supposed to adore because they are so uncute. Enough, already!
Gena Rowlands is always fine and it's a pleasure to see her. Again, too bad this good cast didn't have better material to work with. |

CAN WE GO HOME AGAIN? Submitted on: 2009-09-14 |
|
Is it possible to go home again and find happiness? Birdie is about to find out. Having been invited on a TV reality show, she has no clue her best friend is about to tell her she's having an affair with her husband...yes, right there in front of thousands of viewers. What a shock!
Birdie leaves her husband, and with her young daughter, Bernice, returns to her southern mother's house to live. Gena Rowlands plays a delightful role as Momma; Harry Connick Jr. as a handsome, love-struck boyfriend; and Sandra Bullock is as great as ever, in her role as the devastated, Birdie. AND the movie has one of the best country music soundtracks I've heard.
My friend recommended this, as one of her favorites. I absolutely loved it!

Love this movie Submitted on: 2009-09-05 |

| This is one of my all time favorites. The chemistry between Sandra Bullock and Harry Connick Jr was great. The beginning was a bit unbelievable but the rest of the movie was just great! It will make you laugh, cry and hope. Good movie. |

I have always loved this movie. I also like to be able to hear the movie as I view it. The sound quality on this film is terrible. I can barely hear it, and I have good hearing.
I lost the box so I couldn't return the film.
Just not fair, terribly disappointed. |
