Movie Reviews of Straight From the Heart
Movie Review: I would give it 6 stars if I could!
Summary: 5 Stars
The plot of "Straight From The Heart" revolves around two distinct lies, yet somehow it works. The character of Tyler Ross is one which was difficult to make believeable and sympathetic, but Andrew McCarthy makes Tyler exactly what the story line requires. He is downright magnetic!
Teri is so naturally pretty, and she is at her peak in this one. Her character of Jordan Donovan is accomplished, self-assured and sophisticated. She is all that but also vulnerable. She is thrown into a situation not of her own making, travelling from NYC to Wyoming into what seems, at first, like a whole new planet. However, the on-screen chemistry between McCarthy and Polo is obvious right from the beginning. The story takes twists and turns to a truly romantic ending.
Why these actors didn't make it bigger in movies is a mystery to me. Teri Polo is certainly so much prettier and a far better actress than the likes of Jennifer Aniston (not pretty, can't act), Ashley Judd (pretty, can't act), Sarah Jessica Parker (not pretty, can act a little), etc. I would far rather see Polo anytime. McCarthy is, in a word, superb.
Well written, well directed, very well edited, and extremely well acted, "Straight From The Heart" deserves its place on a permanent shelf of really good movies.
Except for too loud "fakey" horse noises at times, the sound tract is excellent. In spots, the mix is especially terrific! The scenery is beautiful; so, all in all, this movie is one which can be watched over and over again without boredom. It is definitely on my list of "Favorites." NOTE: The looks on Polo's face when she tries to milk a goat are priceless!
Summary of Straight From the Heart
Teri Polo (Meet the Parents) and Andrew McCarthy (Mannequin) star as New York photographer Jordan Donovan and Wyoming cattleman Tyler Ross, an unlikely pair apparently mismatched through a singles ad. She?s stuck in a dead-end relationship with Edward Morgan (Greg Evigan), who?s afraid to commit, and he?s being hounded by his engaged sister, Laurie Woods (Patricia Kalember), to find somebody and settle down. When Jordan?s friend Carla Dimaggio (Christine Tucci) answers the Country Connections ad on her behalf, she flies out to Wyoming to meet Tyler, and at first the only thing they seem to have in common is dislike. But after learning about the first wife who died in childbirth, Jordan begins to see Tyler in a different light.Similar DVD Movies
