Read MoreIf you like "It's A Wonderful Life", then it is impossible to not like "Mr. Smith". The story is solid but the audience of today KNOW that it could never happen today because there are NO leaders or legislators of today that have the kind of remorse necessary for the elder Senator to do what he finally does (I don't want to give away the ending).
Have some fun with "Mr. Smith" and see how many of the actors you can identify from "Wonderful Life". If you try real hard, you will be shocked. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

FANTASTIC MOVIE. Speaking as a native Pennsylvanian, I am so glad that we can claim Jimmy Stewart as our own! Best role I've seen him in since "It's a Wonderful Life." WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I would rate this movie "PG" for adult situations and the sophistication. This is a "must see" for Jimmy Stewart fans and is a true classic for everyone else. Very strong character performances by a wonderful cast with a great story. Both highly entertaining and educational in sparkling monochrome. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I can't believe I've never heard of this movie before learning of it on blockbuster online. James and the the movie should have won the Oscar for best actor and best movie hands down! James Stewart is such an amazing actor; I am in such awe of his performances. He is arguably the best actor of all time. SEE THIS MOVIE AT LEAST ONCE, I'm purchasing it.

It shows how much of an impact one person can make if they stand for what is true and just. Which is extremely relevant still today in politics. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
