As formulaic, utterly inoffensive romantic comedies go, Sweet Home Alabama could be better, and could be worse. It's a variant of Julia Roberts's Something to Talk About, with all the same strengths and weaknesses, and Reese Witherspoon is definitely its saving grace. As an Alabama country girl turned hot New York fashion designer, Witherspoon finds the genuine emotions hidden under a blandly familiar plot, making her character's romantic indecisiveness seem not only credible but disarmingly appealing. She's just agreed to marry the Camelot-bred son (Patrick Dempsey) of New York's no-nonsense mayor (Candice Bergen), but first she has to officially divorce the husband (Josh Lucas) she left behind years earlier... only to discover that their love is stronger than ever. The rest, of course, is a foregone conclusion, but with a sharp supporting cast and a few charming moments, Sweet Home Alabama will satisfy anyone who prefers safe, reassuring entertainment. --Jeff Shannon

Summary: Nice romantic comedy 2008-11-28
Comment: 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.

Summary: ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITES! 2008-11-24
Comment: I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!! This movie is funny, and filled with the kind of characters that love one another, but won't admit it, that makes for a great movie. Josh Lucas and Reese Witherspoon do an incredible job at battling it out, until they realize what they want most, is to give it another go.
The whole concept of finding your true love in a childhood friend is incredible touching. Josh's undying love for Reese, is one every girls longs for. A knight who does what it takes to win his princess.

Summary: Ya'll will love this movie 2008-10-04
Comment: Put on your Confederate grays, break out the Stars & Bars, grab your Southern bell, and snuggle up on the couch to watch this movie together for some quality snogging time. This is the best romantic comedy ever written.
"What you wanna be married to me for?" You'll have to buy the movie for the answer.
If you have a friend or relative who is a Civil War reenactor, give them this DVD as a gift.
