Movie Reviews of Married to ItMovie Review: Outstanding Acting in a Supporting Role Summary: 5 Stars
What a great acting job by a young man named Jimmy Shea, who played Marty. Some would call it the role of a lifetime. Bravo Jimbo, bravo!
Movie Review: A funny movie for intellectuals Summary: 4 Stars
When I read the other reviews I was stunned. Having just seen this movie and looking it up to buy it I cruised the reviews. What a shock. Clearly having lived through the sixties and hearing the truth about Woodstock was considered nothing to even be mentioned in their reviews. This Movie is funny, and it shows how easy it is for people to forget the importance of making a life with another person. How imperative it is to trust while still laughing outloud. In no way do I disrespect the opinions of others. I just don't see how this movie can be considered bland. You have trickery, twists and turns. It takes a bit of caring for the characters to like this movie. With this cast that was not difficult. It takes some intelligence to understand the plotline but not so much that one must be in MENSA. It is a rainy day laugh out loud movie for people who understand the jokes from the sixties. For people who lived through the horrible loss of our leaders in the sixties finally someone has found a way to express it. Bravo.
Movie Review: I'm OK, You're OK Summary: 3 Stars
This movie is just OK. Which is bad, because all the good actors involved here could have made a great movie together. But not.
The story about 3 diverse couples coming together for a school "60s pageant" could have been relevant, meaningful, poignant and funny. It is none of the above. It could be a Lifetime made-for-TV movie.
There is profound sadness in the scene where Beau Bridges' now-middle-aged hippie character is asked to talk to his son's class about Woodstock, but then is not allowed to talk about WHY - no politics allowed - just the fads, fashions, rock & roll - of My Generation. No Nixon. No Viet Nam. Reducing the 60s to tie-dyed butterflies and bellbottoms stripped of political and sociological context.
No *Big Chill,* it's a lukewarm waste of time and talent. /TundraVision, Amazon Reviewer
Movie Review: A good time waster Summary: 3 Stars
This is quite a good cast in service of a so-so story. These three couples have little in common beside the school where they meet at a PTA conference. The acting of Mary Stuart Masterson is first class. In fact the acting of the three female leads keeps the whole thing from descending into a treacly mess. The final scenes with the children performing a school skit to Joni Mitchell's "Circle Game" was amazing. I'm a sucker for happy endings and this movie left me with a a big smile on my face
Movie Review: A mostly predictable, cliched film Summary: 2 Stars
Although there are a few decent moments here and there in this film, it's mostly one of those comedy-dramas you've seen a million times before. The dialogue and just the situations are very predictable and not too believable. Not a terrible film, but not that good either.
