Silly But Still Fun To Watch


How can anyone say anything bad about this real life couple, it is pretty obvious how in love they still are after over 20 years and raising their children to adulthood, they both seem very honest and down to earth in their interviews. Kyra Sedgewick was wonderful in Losing Chase with Helen Mirren and has said that mental illness is an issue close to her heart, it shows in that movie. Kevin Bacon is also a really talented actor AND country singer who sounds a lot like Randy Travis. This movie however has some cringe worthy moments and is often really silly and unbelievable but it's pretty entertaining too. I wish KS had moved her hands in the flute playing concert scene and I think this movie was trying a little too hard to be arty despite that huge oversight. Watching them makes it worth it though there are lots of funny and believable dramatic moments. KS is so animated in this, it's worth a watch despite the really low rating.

I watched this movie probably 4 years after its release. Yes it's corny and contrived and a little kooky in spots, but I have to say that I really enjoyed this movie. It's a fun little romp. Sometimes it's nice to just suspend reality for a while and enjoy.
