See This Movie!

Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2019

See this movie! It is THE best take on the classic Silas Marner story. Steve Martin is a gem. His relationship with the little girl is wonderful. The moral of the story comes through and the ending pulls everything together perfectly. Give this movie a chance. I even used it in an AP English Composition class I taught. I had the Video but I had to order the DVD copy for our home library to make sure I always had it available. You will love this story.

Just Doesn't Offer Much

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2022

I expected much more from this film. Instead it is a lame script and it is fair to say the performances are mailed in. Just does not work well, primarily because the cast is weak, as is the dialog. I took a chance on this, and wasted my time.

A good story- Steve Martin outside his usual comedy role, but a very sincere and believable character. Movie got squishy with a lot of music and leaps of credibility as the story unfolds. It could have been treated more seriously and would have gotten a 5 star, at least from me.

Well done, but really didn't care for the story. A different role for Steve Martin.

The movie we have seen and it's great - however, someone sent us a bogus DVD - it does not play. How disappointing!

Good movie. Poor quality Blu-ray.

Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2021

The movie itself was good but if you’re debating between getting a dvd or Blu-ray, unless they cost the same, don’t bother spending the extra money on the Blu-ray version for this movie. The picture was not at all impressive.

Don't expect comedy

Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2010

I saw this years ago and still can't forget how dismal and disappointing it was. While I understand actors want to stretch themselves and not always take on the same roles, anyone looking for a lighthearted comedy won't find it here. I don't agree it's gentle or heartwarming, although I'm obviously in the minority here. This isn't funny, it's merely drama and not especially quality drama either. I believe I donated it to Goodwill; hopefully someone with different tastes found it a good deal.
