Summary: James Garner at his best
Review: This was a great movie. James Garner is the man. Young Corey Haim should have retired after his stellar performance. The plot is great and there is never a lull. The only thing I was disappointed in was that Emma wasted so much time on that boneheaded ex-hubby. This movie is a definite five stars and should be seen by all.

Summary: sweet, sappy, unadulterated fun!!
Review: though a sleeper at the box office, this movie is one of my all time favorite films! with a superb cast, headed by sally fields and james garner, and a great soundtrack by carole king, "murphy's romance" is fun for everybody. sally fields plays a single mom trying to start a new life for herself and her pre-teen son. simultaneously, she's falling in love with james garner's murphy, a warm, charismatic, much older man.

Summary: Garner meets a Field of dreams
Review: Well, nobody got shot, nothing got blown up, there's no nudity or excessive swearing. Then how could this be one of the greatest sleeper movies of the late 20th century? Nobody seems to know, but it is. What is known is that charming James Garner (Maverick) meets sweet Sally Field (Gidget), and all heaven breaks loose. Together these two seasoned pros are pure magic, and every precious moment has thankfully been preserved on widescreen DVD. So if you and your significant other want to take a break from the currrent crop of bad buddy pictures, boring biographies, slasher sludge, way too talky chick flicks about rich guys picking up poor women, or those endless prom films where 27-year-olds regularly play 17-year-olds, then this one is the ticket. Murphy's Romance is the kind of stuff that pleasant (movie) dreams are made of.
