But this plot and script just stunk. The only storyline that SAVED this movie was the OLD cantankerousguy named "joe" played by Andy Griffith. If they didnt have that character in there this movie would be an absolute bomb. But he is only in the movie for 25 minutes so this movie is only one above a bomb. TWO stars is being generous on this one.This is a skipper, unless you just absolutely have nothing left in your que. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More I found this movie to be offensive in every way. The main character is an adult woman who finds the need to blame her pregnancy on her jerk of a husband by stating that he GOT HER DRUNK! She can't accept responsibility for getting herself drunk and somehow all that leads to her lack of contraceptive use. In this day and age, the blame-laying just doesn't fly right. Both she and her husband are incredibly immature and obviously loathe each other. Her solution is to jump into another relationship with her doctor - while both are in the medical examing room. I kept waiting for the cute comedy but this was just one big mess of people acting very selfishly. The only bright spot was Andy Griffith. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

I finally got to watch this and was a little disappointed. It's about waitress who hates her husband, gets pregnant, has an affair with her doctor who is also married. The waitresses at the diner brought comedy to the movie. It was a good movie but not as I expected it to be. I would watch it again. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

It didn't have a great plot, but the characters were cetainly interesting. Keri's character was funny, hopeful, sad, and angry. Since the movie focused on her character, it was funny and sad. I liked Ogie, the spontaneous poet and optimist; Old Joe, who, although cranky, was really a nice person; and we had Earl, a total jerk. And the pies looked great.

Read More I guess I was watching a different movie b/c I thought this film was awful! The previews made it look so good and I am a fan of Kerri Russell, but come on! The plot was stupid and the characters were a bunch of hicks! The end was actually good, but not worth sitting through the rest. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More This is a good little movie that I just watched with the wife. Although I was sure this was going to be another "chick flick" I found this movie to be very watchable and even enjoyable. Guys, if the wife comes home with this one, no need to run out of the room, grab a seat and I think you'll find this one enjoyable. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||
