Absolutely heartwarming and moving story about a woman with autism, which shows that people with disabilities are still people and have feelings. Elisabeth Shue was fantastic in this and so likeable.

I had never seen a Monroe movie prior to seeing this....and I can't really see what all the fuss is about!! I enjoyed the movie though....the storyline was fun, but I thought Russell was far superior to Monroe in this.

A stunning classic old movie. Audrey Hepburn is just beautiful....but then when isn't she??

Predictable and over the top.

Worth watching as a good Aussie comedy, however not as funny as I was expecting.

Just hilarious with so many laugh out loud moments. I had forgotten just how funny this series was. They don't make them like this any more.

Absolutely beautiful movie. I've seen it more than once and could never tire of it. Sean Penn is superb in this.

A gorgeous light-hearted movie with some really well done funny moments. Marlon Brando and Sophia Loren are outstanding.

Excellent movie with a rather disturbing storyline - the huge risks the young girls take in order to try to improve their lives.

A moving story that is so beautifully done. The character of Yesterday is so pure and honest and the actress playing the character is just superb.

Not as much a story about apartheid as I was expecting, but I really enjoyed it nevertheless.

Entertaining story with engaging characters. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Very enjoyable movie with a good storyline regarding morals. Not for everyone, but if you like a drama with a strong storyline this is well worth watching.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Really beautiful and haunting story. Quite long - this is in 2 parts, but well worth watching if you like a good drama/romance.

I quite enjoyed this one - how one event can change your perspective on life forever.

Great movie! Reese Witherspoon was excellent and the costumes were stunning. Altogether very visually beautiful.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
So very predictable with nothing particularly interesting in the storyline. There are way better movies with this formula out there.
(Maybe) - review by Rhoda
One of the most romantic and sweet movies I've seen. Quite amusing in places too, although I think this one is well suited to all the romantic girls out there...

A strange look at office friendships and office politics - quite unusual, but I didn't mind it.
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
A powerful and interesting movie that kept me interested the whole way through. Not exactly cheery or light, but an excellent storyline.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
I thoroughly enjoyed this - the coming together of 2 vastly different cultures and the seeming impossibility of the situation. I really liked the 2 main actors - there was real chemistry there. I was originally only going to give this 4 stars, but I couldn't stop thinking about this movie for days....it's made impact, so deserves 5 in my book!

Gorgeous sets and the beautiful Sophia - a pleasure to watch.

Thoroughly enjoyable - loved the character of Louise.
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
Excellent movie - just very frightening that it's based in fact. Very confronting and disturbing that this stuff actually takes place.

This didn't do much for me really - didn't like it and didn't hate it.....

Quite entertaining if you've nothing better to do, but nothing ground breaking.

Quite slow and doesn't appear to be going anywhere much. The ending is quite dramatic and unexpected if you can actually watch it that long :-)

A fun and entertaining movie - but definitely one that will be more appealing to the girls!

Really beautiful movie. Simple storylines and gorgeous scenery.

Quite a weak and ridiculous storyline, still mildly entertaining.
(Maybe) - review by Rhoda
I really enjoyed this - the most uptight man meets the most carefree woman.....very touching movie, but definitely one that would be more appealing to the girls!
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The characters were interesting and the movie really captured the essence of the excitement and drama of living in another country, and the people you meet and the experiences you have. Will have to buy this and I could watch it again and again!

Not an Adam Sandler fan anyway, but this seemed pointless and didn't really go anywhere.
(Don't bother!) - review by Rhoda
Excellent story - shows the very difficult lives of illegal migrants..where they came from and where they've ended up, which unfortunately is no better than what they've left behind.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Beautifully done movie - gives a great insight into growing up in different countries and cultures. I really enjoyed it.

Not very scary but not bad with an interesting twist at the end.

A good movie to pass a couple of hours, but nothing ground breaking. Mandy Moore is good and the scenery around Europe is lovely.

Quite bizarre, but entertaining nonetheless.

A beautiful and touching story....the actors were excellent. Visually beautiful as well - the special effects were fantastic.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Disjointed and slow. I was tempted to turn it off less than half way through but persevered hoping it would get better. It didn't. Waste of 2 hours.
(Don't bother!) - review by Rhoda
An amusing and entertaining movie....I think most people could appreciate this one :-)

Great movie - far better than I was expecting. Much funnier than I was expecting too A great way to spend a night in!
(Not to be missed!) - review by Rhoda
A really enjoyable and easy watching movie.....I thought it was great!
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
A very moving story that really makes you think. Very inspiring and uplifting.
(Not to be missed!) - review by Rhoda
As an expose this was great...but if you're looking for entertainment and a storyline look elsewhere. As a storyline this has a few different threads that don't really go anywhere. However as an expose, it's thought provoking and will put you off fast food :-)
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
A lovely and simple film. As well as the uncomplicated storyline, I was fascinated by the different culture and way of life.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
One of the most beautiful and moving stories I have seen in a while. Dakota Fanning was excellent. I woud buy this so I could watch it again and again.
(Not to be missed!) - review by Rhoda
Interesting movie with gorgeous scenery - the costumes and the rooms in the villas were stunning. Interesting insight into the idle rich of the day.
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
A great movie and not as predictable as many out there, which is what I liked about it.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Great storyline with an interesting twist at the end. Susan Sarandon was excellent, but it was kind of weird to see her driving around Melbourne passing trams etc!!
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Not a bad movie, but not one that I would watch again....it just kind of meandered along and then ended quite abruptly.
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
An enjoyable and entertaining movie. Salma Hayek and Penelope Cruz were very good and I particularly liked the horses :-)
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Really interesting storyline and an ending that is very unexpected.

Interesting storyline, although the time travelling thing did my head in a bit!!
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Beautiful movie with absolutely stunning scenery.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Not too bad, but if you've seen Eddie Murphy's other movies it's a bit "same old, same old".....
(Maybe) - review by Rhoda
Quite a fun movie, although most suited to teens. However there are some good messages in the movie that everyone can relate to.
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
Loved this one! Good storyline and loved the music. A feel good story and so nicely done. Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore were fantastic and Hugh Grant does his own singing in this - he's really quite good!
(Not to be missed!) - review by Rhoda
Beautiful story with an interesting twist, although the 2 year difference thing did my head in!! Really loved it though - Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves were excellent.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Interesting and disturbing storyline. I really enjoyed the movie, but it's not one that I would bother watching again.
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
I thought this movie was a lot of fun. The characters were well developed and likeable. The storyline was predictable, but enjoyable.
(Not to be missed!) - review by Rhoda
Beautifully scripted and acted - I thought this was an excellent movie. Reminds you that one voice can make a difference.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Thoroughly enjoyed this, although the storyline is very complex and was a little hard to follow on occasion. Overall I thought it was great though.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
An interesting look at moral dilemmas and how differently people view the same issue. Beautiful scenery. Left a lasting impression, which is more than you can say for a lot of movies these days.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
Maybe it's just me, but I couldn't follow the story line at all and I felt unclear about the relationships between the characters. However I thought it being in black and white was excellent and certainly gave the movie an old time feel to it.
(Maybe) - review by Rhoda
Interesting enough story, but as my disc was damaged I missed about 20 mins in the middle of the movie and it also played up a bit right at the end....so I may have missed vital scenes to the movie. However it didn't enthrall me enough to get it again and watch it all again to get that missing 20 mins.
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
Amazing movie, brilliantly done. The actors were excellent (Don Cheadle in particular) and it was a very moving insight into true events. What a travesty that this actually took place.
(Not to be missed!) - review by Rhoda
Thoroughly enjoyable and heart warming movie about a dysfunctional family. Believable characters (seems most families are dysfunctional anyway!!) and a great story and ending.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
I loved this - I thought the actors were excellent and the storyline and fantastic singing kept me watching. Absolutely adored the costumes!
(Not to be missed!) - review by Rhoda
Worth watching for it's sheer political incorrectness - you almost feel guilty laughing at some of the stuff. I didn't mind this to begin with, but after the naked chase through the hotel it became really tedious to watch and I was glad when it finally ended (and it isn't even a very long movie!)
(Maybe) - review by Rhoda
I haven't read the book, but I found the movie intriguing with so many twists. The scenery and all the famous locations were fantastic. I thought Tom Hanks and particularly Audrey Tautou were excellent.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
I really enjoyed this, but then I haven't seen the original to compare it with. I thought the storyline was good and the actors were great.
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
An intriguing but off-beat movie. I don't normally like Jim Carrey, but have to say he is excellent in this. Kate Winslet is fantastic (love that hair!).
(Excellent) - review by Rhoda
An interesting and thought provoking movie that is very well made. Only down side is that it's a little slow and drawn out at times.
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
Excellent and inspiring movie. Hilary Swank is fantastic in this. One of the best movies I have seen in a while.
(Not to be missed!) - review by Rhoda

This movie is really good fun - some really funny moments and a good storyline. Very entertaining!

Very lame storyline and although it was predictable, it was entertaining enough to wile away a couple of hours.
(Worth watching) - review by Rhoda
Loved the movie and I thought all the actors were great in their roles. It's light-hearted and fun and thoroughly entertaining.
(Not to be missed!) - review by Rhoda
Thoroughly enjoyed it - it's fun and lighthearted, but definitely one that will appeal more to the girls. A fun story about an over-zealous mother - absolutely loved the dog!
