Summary: A solid, well done film by Lawrence Kasdan
Review: This film by Lawrence Kasdan was wonderful! It is the story of a young man named Mumford who is welcomed by the town of Mumford as their new and bright psychologist. He is charming, a good listener, and has a gift when it comes to dealing with all who come to him for help. As a result, everyone trusts him with their most personal situations, they take his advice, and they come back to him when in need. However, it is not too long before we find out that Mumford is not exactly what people see him to be. In fact, he is much more than what meets their eyes. Although very familiar sounding when it comes to the plot, Mumford will surprize you. It has enough humor in it to satisfy the comedy fan, character developement for the drama cravers, and some powerful moments which will stay with the viewer for some time. What is most fasinating about the film is how it shows just what some people will do in order to erase their past and redeem themselves. Unlike the characters in the thriller genre, Mumford does not use violence to hide his past. Instead, he uses his empathy, compassion and advice for the townspeople to win them over at first; and then to win them back. The town of Mumford comes to love the character of Mumford, and so will you, the audience, after viewing this film. Although best viewed on DVD, this films story is very enjoyable regardless of how it is shown. Be sure to pick up this winner sometime soon.

Summary: Intelligent comedy, for a change
Review: This film is brilliant. Outstanding acting, beautifully written (and believable) script. Satirical yet uplifting. Has very insightful, multi-dimensional character development, with a Vonnegut feel to it. Don't be swayed by this film's detractors! If you liked "Election" you will love this film.

Summary: this is a wonderful movie
Review: This is an absolutely wonderfully written and acted movie. Loren Dean is just right as the all-too-human psychologist, and Hope Davis is amazing as a patient with chronic fatigue syndrome. The best: I have never particularly liked Bob Seger's song "Till it Shines", but its exquisitely perfect use in this film gave me the opportunity to see what a beautiful song it is. Nice!

Summary: Touching
Review: This is not a laugh-out-loud comedy. It is a touching film about people with secrets wanting help from someone who will listen. Loren Dean is excellent in the lead role. A delight of a film.

Summary: A hidden gem of a movie
Review: This is one of those movies that would be easy to overlook, but it turns out to be charming, and very entertaining. Loren Dean pretends to be a psychiatrist and soon his amateur listening ear improves the mental health of many of the town's citizens. The characters are great, the acting is natural and unassuming and this is really an enjoyable film.

Summary: Nice Film
Review: This movie is about a psychologist, Dr. Mumford and his life in the town of the same name. The story is great and it is neat to see how the lives of the characters inter wind with each other. It is a relatively strong movie for a cast that was not well known to me. This is a good movie and definitely worth seeing! Recommended!!

Summary: A must miss!
Review: Warning: This movie contains Ted Danson. Be Careful, this has been known to kill braincells, especially in the northern Cali, carrot-muffin, NPR types at whom this movie is targeted. Find your psychobabble somewhere else.
