Movie Reviews of Where the Heart Is

Movie Review: Lighthearted
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a wide screen edition with no extras on the disc. The regular network stations used to play this movie on weekends when I was a kid. It is a wonderful light hearted film about a group of spoiled rich kids getting kicked out and trying to make it on their own. It is in no way a serious, true to life film. More like a fanciful fairytale that naturally has a happy ending. The cast of characters and the range of artistic individuals is what makes this movie special to me. It seems to center around the creation and compilation of the groups artistic talents. The fashion designer prentending to be gay so he gets "taken seriously" is one colorful piece. And the crowning glory is the massive murals that one young artist creates and photographs for a calendar project. Her murals combine wall paintings, painting on the human body, and props to create an awesome finished product. I love just skipping to the murals in the movie....it is inspiring.

Movie Review: Must see amazing, beautiful, uplifting movie!
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie as a visually beautiful, fun, frolicking, over-the-top,intelligent movie with deep inspirational meaning for anyone who appreciates Manet's painting, "Le Dejeuner sur l'Herbe",or loved movies like "A Month at the Lake" or "Enchanted April" or "Tim". Analyze what happened when the Uma Thurman character comes out of a trance! It reminds me of the final scene of "A Single Man" (a much more erudite movie,beautifully and intelligently written, acted, and directed). Deep meaning can come in the pleasant form of comedy! Owning it makes sense as it can inspire and entertain you any time of day and your guests will likely enjoy it.

Movie Review: Good fun
Summary: 5 Stars

I love this movie. The tale of a self made father who decides to teach his three children to stand on their own two feet. Dabney Coleman is excellent as the crusty father who boots out his indulged children to force them to get work. After a rocky start, the band of three grows as housemates are found to help pay the bills. Features a very young Uma Thurman. Loved the paintings. Very, very enjoyable.

Movie Review: where the heart is dvd
Summary: 4 Stars

Just to let anyone know, this dvd is a widescreen edition. Which (to me) is the most important feature. If you were hoping for any bonus features, there are none (not even the trailer). The movie itself, and the fact that it is in widescreen, should be enough reason to purchase it.

Movie Review: Great Stuff!!!
Summary: 4 Stars

This is one of Uma Thurman's first films. It's a heartwarming story story of familial relationships during good times and bad. The art is one of the things that make this interesting viewing, and the cast is excellent.
