Best Love Story Ever
Nov 23, 2007

This is also a great comedy.Carroll O'Connor(as grandpa) went out with class.His last work of art (before his death) makes this movie more precious too. Jim Belushi makes this great movie greater.David Duchovny and Minnie Driver were the best 2 people... Full review

Probably one of the best chick flicks I have seen, or would want to see. Excellent story line leads and music, but the group of old men make the movie what it is.... Full review

This is a great movie to rent for a date or if you're just in the mood for a good chick flick. It's got both funny and sad parts, but it's a feel-good movie in the end.... Full review

I bought this movie for my home collection, and it's one I watch regularly. Sure, the story is a bit morbid... Any movie is where a good person dies at the beginning. But I absolutely enjoy watching this movie. I can't... Full review

This movie is so delightful! It was a little slow at the beginning and somewhat uncomfortable with the death of such a seemingly wonderful character but it picks right up. The elderly men are outrageously hilarious with their bantering. The casting... Full review

Hunt herself is excellent in the old-fashioned, wisecracking best friend part she's made her own The plot at first appears to be one of the stupidest of all time (even the characters seem stunned by it; they stagger back and say things like 'Wow'). ... Full Review

Hollywood Report Card
However, I quite enjoyed the conclusion of this sequence (which ends visually as my suggestion begins); Duchovny, bloodstained, peers blankly into surgery ward while soundtrack continues the song "Return to Me" but minus the music, simply acappella. Driver is an excellent actress, Duchovny is also charming with his subtle emotionalism, and director/actress/writer Bonnie Hunt delivers a strong performance as Minnie's best friend. ... Full Review

supporting star Bonnie Hunt fails to flesh out and explore.....Instead of progressing to an uncharted fusion of modern love and medicine, this film merely orbits around an unconvincing plot point.... ... Full Review

There are no fireworks for her in Return To Me, in which she plays a good girl who has led a sheltered life surrounded by a loving family. In Return To Me she does a good job with a role that is quite similar to the character she played in An Ideal Husband - light and carefree. ... Full Review

The Movie Boy
As a romance, "Return to Me" is mildly engaging, but severely uneven. "Return to Me," comedian-actress Bonnie Hunt's directorial debut (she also stars), has most of these assets--its two central stars, David Duchovny and Minnie Driver, are delightful here; the screenplay has quite a few very funny moments; and the whole package has such an innocence about it that to say it isn't a good movie, I fear, may cause me to appear to be a grump. ...

No surprises here, but it is a pleasant date-movie, a romance that tries hard to transcend its gimmick and just about succeeds. Let's get the gimmick out of the way first - guy has girl (architect Bob -- David Duchovney... ... Full Article
