Summary: Great!
Review: This movie is excellent! I love how the story came together in the end. The actors are wonderful at what they do and it definitely shows in this movie. It made me laugh. It made me cry. It made me rent it twice.

Tawny :)

Summary: MEREDITH AND TRENT WERE AWESOME!!!!
Review: Out of every couple I liked Gilly's and Jon's relationship! It was realistic and I loved how Gilly acted. She is the cooolest person alive and such a great actor. My sister said "I can't imagine her as anything else but scully," and she never ever watched the X-files and I said, "Well, how can I if you can't?" Cuz it really makes no sense how I can if i am a dy hard X-file fan and she isn't. But anyways. This story was great and i watched it a lot! I love the scene when Meredith and Trent are getting ready to make love and Meredith says something like.. "Well, this is going to sound strange but..." and Trent goes, "Your worried about Barley and want to go back to your place." and she says, "Oh My God this is so f****** Spooky" I was laughing forever! i loved how she said that! i would have never guessed that she would say that an i missed it the first time!!!! but i got it the second time and laughed and laughed! I loved it and thank you guys so much gilly and jon! you are the coolest people!!!!!!! i love you both!!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ryan Phillippe: Sensational. Entire cast: A real treat!
Review: I just finished watching this movie and was knocked off my feet. The acting is so strong throughout, but Ryan Phillippe in particular blew me away. I have never before been so moved by a performance (Well, except for everything Kevin Spacey has ever done). He truly is a rising star.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I LOVE this movie!
Review: Right at this moment I can't think of any movie about love and life that I have enjoyed or appreciated more! I'm enough of a film buff to know that there are definetly more great love stories out there...but I really can not think of a one that I would rather slide in the VCR right now. The Joan and Keenan (Jolie and Phillippe) storyline is the standout vignette...but other characters have strong moments as well. And I must say it's great to see Sean Connery opposite a beautiful actress of his own generation. ;-) Enjoy...you won't be disappointed.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Angelina and Ryan are great in this film
Review: I thought that this movie was kind of boring. Ryan and Angelina's performence made this movie 10 times better than it would have if they werent in it.And it was funny that angelina had always been my fav actress and lord knows I'm gaga over Ryan, it was so nice and surprising to see them in a film together.Angelina is just so good in this film,its breath taking.I love the part where she lets the vodka run out of her mouth...thats so cute!OOHH and their romance scenes all I have to say is ooo lala. The part about Keenan and Joan was so heart warming. It was so surprising to find out why he wouldn't have anything to do with this very attractive women. I was sooo surprised... I almost peed my pants..lol. I could have sworn he was gay or he like lost his manhood in the war or somethin. Everyone is always saying how Ryan Phillipe is just a pretty face... well I think that in this movie..he did the best darn job I ever seen. At first you just want to strangle him(cus you think he's a huge jerk) well then you start to understand his coldness towards Joan. I think this is a beautiful love story that shows that under any circumstances you can always turn to love and everything will be ok. I thought that was great that Joan did'nt turn her back on Keenan after she found out the real reason he didn't date. I said it once and I'll say it again Angelina and Ryan made this movie.And because I love Ryan and Angelina I give this movie an A++.I think they make a great couple and I wish he was with her instead of REESE'S pieces.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ONE OF THE BEST
Review: Playing by heart was fantastic. Gillian Anderson was the main reason I went to see it and am glad I did, gillian was BRILLIANT and I loved the dog. Sean Connery was good very realistic. It had a very good plot and came togehter very well, I hope they make a sequal, with the same people.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A heart warming movie
Review: This sweet movie tells the story of a few deeply engaging characters. It is as invinting as a hot cup of soup on a cold day.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: X-Cellent Film
Review: I think that Playing by Heart showed some true emotion and it showed that some couples do live like that. Gillian Anderson's performance was x-cellent, I think she deserves at least a nommintaion as do all the other actors. Sean Connery was great as always, as were all the others. If there is any romantic movie to watch this is it. 5 stars deserved.!!!!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: 3 of hearts.
Review: I would actually like to give this film 3 1/2 stars. The problems however, I have with Playing by Heart are that it incorporates too many lives of characters with conficting personalities and lives that are contrasting as black and white. You can't figure out who this movie will appeal to. When they switch from the younger characters to the geriatrics characters (one played by Sean Connery), it offsets your mood. You are just getting into one plot and Bam! switch-a-roo! It was frustrating. I also thought they could have eliminated Jay Moer's character (who was dying of a.i.d.s). That is so depressing! How are we going to be entertained by that!?! Yes it was quite sad and it did make me want to cry, but hey, that doesn't belong in this movie! One of my favorite scenes is where Dennis Quaid's character goes into the gay club and talks to a transvestite. I found that to be a touching, surreal momement. I also loved Angelina Jolie's character. She was intriguing and brought some life to the film. (check her out in "Gia"!). I also enjoyed the overall style of this film.

Eliminate some of the depressing elements to the storyline and you would have an above average movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely Spectacular. Easily one of the best this year.
Review: I cannot reccomend this film more highly. This film reigns as my favorite movie this year.
