The Worst Film Ever
People are voting emotionally.
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Glenn Close was very good in this well-done soap. But,let's face it, children are not really such huggable little angels as these two are all the time. It was a foregone conclusion, of course, that the Walken and Close characters would be subjected to the basic melodramatic plot: they would encounter at least one problem, resolve it, and live happily ever after. Was it really necessary to have all the people (as well as one cat and one dog) be so unrealistically good-hearted and lovable? The movie would have been much better if there had been an attempt to go deeper than warm-hearted bromides and clichés. The depiction of life as it really was at the time would have been much more interesting.
Oh my God is such a wonderful film. I watched it on the channel Hallmark, and i tought that it will be boring, but i started to watch it, because there was Chris Walken (i heard he like Chris better like Christopher), and he is an amazing actor, and strangle sexy. The 2 children's are so nice and lovely, i think everybody wants such kind oh great kids:) Glenn Close is so nice ang beautiful in this film, and her role is also very good. A woman who tried to change old habits and and deep feelings. And there's a lovely ending!! Oh, and Mr. Walken is also great(like almost always). He plays perfectly the man who cant forget his wife and cant find the way to go on with 2 children's who lost their mothers but want live a normal life!! Great film i have seen it 5 times and i still love it!! 10/10
I can name a half a dozen reasons why I like the movie. The plot is good wholesome plot. This is a movie I can sit my children down and not worry about any bad words. It brings the past to life its like you are there. It shows what true love is all about . When you can go through all different things together and still be in love then you have it going on. You can feel the warmth and kindness Sarah shows toward the children.If you haven'tseen it then I only have onething tosay RUN Don't WALK to your nearest video store.
They had a real nice feel for the time and place with this one....I remember enjoying it alot. Oceans of grass to replace the Maine woods and shore, different mores and a different way of thinking. Walken really plays against type here, he is quiet and turned inwards...Little House on the Prairie done by Hallmark, if you will.*** outta ****
