I am a fan of RenΓ©e Zellweger and really enjoyed this movie. I have watched it many times and like it more with each viewing. It is sweet and relatable. I do not want a lot of drama or violence in my entertainment. This movie is a definite feel-good film. The characters are interesting and I love that they added scenes like the ladies crafting and the men watching a football game, dressed in their favorite team's garb. The town's people come together to help one another. It is a nice movie to watch and provides some laughter too. Read more
This is a heartwarming, well acted and funny movie. Renee Zellweger and Harry Connick, Jr. are perfect foils! If you ever lived in a big city (as I have) and moved to a small town (as I have), you'll be able to relate to the challenges faced by the Zellweger character, and the slowed-down atmosphere of small town life relative to the hustle and bustle of the city. Don't come to this movie, however, if you're looking for lewd humor or action-packed excitement. You'll walk away disappointed. But for me, its in my top 10 movies of all time. The disc ordered here has played flawlessly; my only "complaint" is that it is bluray, and I am restricted by that format to which machine I can view it on as my older DVD players don't like bluray. Oh well... Read more
This is a great movie and absolutely hilarious if you live in the South, or anywhere that its warm most of the year, and yet you have been to places that are polar opposite and freezing cold....This hilarious movie is for you --- Harry Connick Jr. and Renee Z. do a wonderful job of acting and the film was actually shot in Winnepeg, Canada when it was 50 degrees below!!!! Yes, Renee's character was perfect for "New in Town" and knowing Harry Connick, Jr. was REALLY freezing while he was acting this funny movie made it....well even more hilarious. Pop some popcorn, & settle back for a relaxing, well casted, and well acted, refreshingly wholesome and truly comedic evening. Enjoy! We certainly did! and that's why we actually bought the movie after renting it....Its that good. Read more
If you're looking for a fresh, cutting-edge, or unusual film, skip this. But if you just want to relax with a sweet, predictable (not always a bad thing) and feel-good movie with a few fabulous characters, I vote yes. I did find Renee Zellweger's plastic appearance distracting at first, but she's still charming and a solid comedic actress. Harry Connick Jr. likewise turns in a good performance. But my favorites by far were the secretary, the factory foreman (whom you will surely recognize) and all the townspeople, with enough warmth to melt the iciest of hearts. Realistic? No. Did I care? Not one bit. The movie left me smiling and that was enough. Read more
I've watched this film numerous times. I fall in love with the leading lady every time. You know who she is. Harry Connick Jr. is involved with many great films. A true American talent. He has a film that takes place in Greece that is also one of my favorites. Both leading actors seem to be in many films I enjoy watching over and over. Inspiring! Read more
What a great movie!!! A delightful romantic comedy! I watched it 3 times in a row and caught something different each time. Also thoroughly enjoyed to actor and director interviews on the Special Features after watching the movie. Just hearing how they had to endure those horrible below zero weather conditions while filming this movie was increadible and makes you want to watch the movie all over again. Harry Connick Jr was his usual wonderful self and as a sweet hometown like guy (similar to the charachter he played in Hope Floats) makes me wonder where all these nice hometown guys are and how come I can't find someone sweet like that!!! Renee Zellweger was fantastic too and played a very sweet and funny roll! And the way the hometown people pulled together makes you hope there is still that "we can do it" attitude and spirit still somewhere in America. Tapioca pudding, anyone??? Read more
If you need a movie to help you get away for awhile, without leaving the house, then get lost for an hour or so and go from Miami to Minnesota with this Super Feel Good Movie!! Couldn't stop watching it if I wanted to! Harry Connick Jr. is a good reason not too for sure! A little on the predictable side because everything turns up just perfect in the end... but getting there is a fun cinematic journey. So enjoy some REALLY funny moments, a few tear jerker moments too. It was sweet, funny and witty, kind of like Renee Zellweger, but then all her movies are. Enjoy! Read more
