Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Outstanding Independent Film
Review: I absolutely loved this movie! Clive Owen is stupendous, and the rest of the ensemble cast is wonderful. The fact that is based on actual events makes it even more impressive, and one that I will be using in the MBA classes I teach.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Much better than expected
Review: I had no idea that I was renting such a wonderful film when I was in Blockbuster looking for something different from a lot of the normal junk out there. This movie was very well done in all aspects and totally enjoyable. Bravo!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Charming!
Review: I have been so disappointed in the DVDs I have seen lately, but this one really kept my attention and I found myself laughing out loud. Simply charming and sweet, I couldn't help but be sad that it actually had to end. It is now in my top 5. I hope a soundtrack follows because the music was great, too. I am wondering why this movie didn't get wide theatrical release?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Greenfingers - Excellent!
Review: I have seen this film twice at the cinema, and have hired the video so many times, I think the video store is going to give me visitation rights!

I thouroughly enjoyed this movie, and seeing so many talented actors in one film makes the viewing so much more enjoyable! David Kelly, (Waking Ned Devine, Robin's Nest: 1970's british sit-com) is an absolute delight! Clive Owen and Helen Mirren,(Gosford Park)were absolutely wonderful! I know people as flamboyant as 'Georgina Woodhouse,' and I can say that Helen Mirren plays them all in the one character!

You laugh, you cry. Every emotion is there! This is a must see!

Summary: Great
Review: I love British romantic comedy, and of all the movies in the genre, this one is my absolute favorite. Not only is the plotline funny, it's smart; that is, there's plot besides boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy gets girl back. The movie also succeeds at being touching without dipping into sappiness--the Colin/Fergus friendship brings me to tears.

The quirky off-plot tidbits make me laugh aloud. Look for the great big guy playing in the dirt.

The cinematography is beautiful, as is the sexual chemistry between Colin and Primrose. Clive Owen is a fantastically sexy man, and one of my favorite things about British romantic comedy is that the women are enticing without looking like they belong in a magazine.

There are few movies I'd watch over and over again, but this is one of them.

Summary: This was so funny
Review: I saw this movie at a preview screening in L.A. and I thought it was amazing.... it was such a cute, original story and all the actors were great. Clive Owen (who was in Croupier last year) was especially good - he is going to be a big star. This is a movie for everyone who loved Saving Grace and Waking Ned Devine.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thoroughly Enjoyable
Review: I watched this movie with my sister and we absolutely loved it. The next night I watched it with my husband and he loved it! This little film has such heart. You are immediately drawn into the story with its well-written characters and lovely little story and beautiful countryside. I can't pick out which performances I liked best. Of course, Clive Owen is eye-catching, but I thought Adam Fogerty was perfectly cast as well. I recommend watching it at least twice to catch some of the nuances you may have missed. Lovely fluff.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Prisoners enter the Hampton Court Flower show
Review: In a medium to minimum security prison in England, a new program is started to teach inmates how to garden in preparation for their parole. In the meantime, they make the prison grounds look nice. This is an unlikely group of gardeners, one short timer and three lifers, one of whom is dying of cancer. The four of them learn gardening from books written by a Ms. Woodhouse, who later hires them all in a sort of work release project renovating a garden in a local estate. There are many twists and turns and surprises, but the gardeners find their way to Hampton Court and happiness in the end. Helen Mirren, Clive Owen and the rest of the cast are perfect in their parts and the story is very good.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: nice looking film
Review: its a good film but some parts make it downfall and then it picks up the pace with beautiful acting. Clive Owen(Gosford Park, Croupier and Tv's Second Sight) has never been more awesomer in the title role as the man who is sent to a nice and non-violent prison place who ends up liking gardening and who is helped by friends. charming and nice. a keeper
