Movie Reviews of One True Thing

Movie Review: A TRUE INSPIRATION!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is my week for pulling those old favorites out of the shelf. I'm a sucker for anything with Meryl Streep, and I also enjoy Renee Zellweger's performances.

One True Thing does an excellent job of spotlighting those family moments and capturing the conflicts along with the connections.

A young career woman from New York visits the family home for a celebration, and while there, her father, a college professor who has been her mentor and her idol, persuades her to help out in a family crisis.

Reluctant, she agrees. But then in the weeks and months ahead, she discovers an unexpected bonus...her growing bond with her mother.

Movie Review: if i could i would give it 10
Summary: 5 Stars

There are no words to describe this movie. The book is amazing but is does use many "bad" words in it. The movie uses some but nothing drastic!! This movie is the best. What can you expect from such an amazing cast. The developement of the characters is very well presented and this movie VERY LIKELY will make you cry, male or female. After this movie you just want to watch it again and again. Some of the scenes could be cut shorter but they also "make" the movie. After watching the movie, you should discuss it with the people who watched it with you, it's interesting to see other peoples thoughts on this movie.

Movie Review: One, true great movie
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie has it right even before we know what it's about just by the casting itself. When you have an amazing cast like Meryl Streep, Wiliam Hurt and Renee Zelwegger etc 9 times out of ten you can't go wrong. Then when we do find out what the story to this movie is we realise just how wonderful it is. There's no need to give a synopsis of this film considering Amazon do it for us but I wanted to rate this movie to advise anyone who hasn't seen this film to rent it immediately. If you like a movie with real human emotion, realistic storylines and fantastic acting this is the film to watch.

Movie Review: Warms you right up.
Summary: 5 Stars

One True Thing starring Meryl Streep and Renee Zellweger is a film that you remember. Beautifully acted by Zellweger, she plays a young career woman who is forced to move back home to take care of her cancer-stricken mother played by Streep. Zellweger brings warmth and sensitivity to her role and William Hurt is excellent as well as the cheating and unconcered husband of Streep. One True Thing doesn't have a magical Hollywood ending and that's a good thing, this film is 100% real and engaging. I highly recommend checking this drama out. Happy viewing!

Movie Review: Tear jerker, very well done
Summary: 5 Stars

Everything is 'A' about this movie. I'm a little embarrased to say that I cried through half the movie (being a guy). William Hurt & Meryl Streep (& even Renee Z.) all gave the best possible performances of their roles. The title didn't really catch my ear, but I thought I'd watch it based on the cast - I'm glad I did. I've only seen 2 drama's that I would rate higher (Titanic & English Patient - neither of which are strait drama's). I'm looking forward to watching it again after my tear ducts refill.
