Movie Reviews of Sweet Home Alabama
Movie Review: Nice romantic comedy
Summary: 5 Stars
The first time I saw this one, I thought Witherspoon's character was a little too unlikable for the lead in a romantic comedy, however, after watching the movie more than once I don't feel as much that way. This is a nice movie that still has a few surprises even though you kind of get the feeling you know where things are going. The one thing this movie is lacking that usually shows up in most romantic comedies is a seriously dumb moment in which the characters look goofy and completely unbelievable. That's a plus. The movie has fun with sterotypes about the south and big cities like New York without going too far over the line. It's definitely worth buying a copy of this movie for occasions when you want to watch a nice light movie.Movie Review: Not one for a chick flick...but
Summary: 5 Stars
I watched this primarily because of Reese Witherspoons portrayal of June Carter Cash in Walk the Line. Here in Sweet Home Alabama, she is a country girl turned city girl, who is forced to return to her roots in order to get a divorce from her husband that she hasn't seen in 7 years so she could marry another.
But in so doing, she finds that the past life she had been embarrased about wasn't so bad. Forced to slow down, she rediscovers herself, and finds out what true love is all about.
After it was over, it made me want to move from the city to some small town like what I grew up in.
Another show like this one is Doc Hollywood with Michael J. Fox. If you liked one you'll like the other.
Movie Review: One of my favorites!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie has become probably one of my favorites of all times. Yes, its predictable...But all you "movie critics" are getting WAY too serious...Most chick flicks ARE predictable. After all, we all knew the ship was gonna sink in Titanic and that in My Big Fat Greek Wedding Toula was going to become this beautiful young women and live happily ever after. But who cares? This movie is sweet and funny..And I don't think it pokes fun at Southerns or New Yorkers..And for those who think it does, lighten up! It's just a movie. My dad's side of the family is from Alabama, and some of the characters reminded me of my relatives down in Alabama. If you're looking for a great heart warming care free movie this is it =)Movie Review: Great Entertainment
Summary: 5 Stars
A very entertaining movie with the strength and appeal of Reese Witherspoon at the center of it all. She dominates the movie with intelligence, personality, and wholesome good looks. Good homespun depiction of Alabama, and on the whole a good view of Americana Alabama style. Candice Bergen terrific as the mayor of New York as was Jean Smart and Fred Ward in small parts. Southern actors in the movie were very interesting, especially Josh Lucas who plays Witherspoon's childhood boyfriend and present husband. Added benefit is a staged depiction of Civil War battle scenes. Good enjoyable entertainment, terrific acting by everyone involved, and definitely a Five-Star movie, if your purpose is entertainment.Movie Review: SWEET
