Movie Reviews of Chances Are
Movie Review: likeable movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the rare romantic comedies that comes off making you feel good. In spite of all the potentially creepy or awkward scenes it actually ends up being cute and heartwarming. It's also one of those movies where little details are tied to later plot developments making the whole thing seem more tidy and well-developed. Of course you have to be open to a small suspension of disbelief to accept the reincarnation device and the idea that so many things hadn't changed in the 23 years between the death of Louie and the arrival of Alex, but these things are really minor. This one is definitely worth having in the collection.
Summary of Chances Are
When 23-year-old alex finch arrives on the scene of washington d.C. To start his new life as a reporter he is suddenly bombarded by memories of another lifetime and a wife he never knew he had. A heartwarming comedy that gives romance an unforgettable second chance. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 06/28/2005 Starring: Cybill Shepherd Ryan Oneal Run time: 108 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Emile AndolinsCybill Shepherd plays a pregnant woman whose husband is killed before their baby is born; once he gets to heaven, he begs for a chance to come back to her and his unborn child. The twist is that he returns in the form of Robert Downey Jr., boyfriend to Cybill's daughter (Mary Stuart Masterson). When the daughter brings him home from college, he gets his memory back--and starts coming on to her mom. Sounds like a Jerry Springer show--"Help! My dad has been reincarnated as my boyfriend!"--but this Emile Ardolino film actually has a passable amount of charm and wit, once it gets into gear. It gives you a sense of just how funny and charming Downey can be, given the right material. --Marshall Fine
