Great movie, I loved it. It might be slow to some, but if you like character driven movies you will enjoy this. The acting and story are top-notch.

Interesting film that gave me a glimpse into an era not too long ago when radio was live and everyday people lived every instance in the moment. If an error was done it was corrected immediately and they moved on to the next song. That environment is gone forever but this movie has captured the essence for all time. The attempt at comedy was weak so this one gets ***`s.

Great movement throughout the film.. Meryl Streep and Lily Tomlins 10 minute spiel together makes the film worthwhile to watch. Great acting and great cast. weak link was lindsay lohan...but otherwise, great "little" film.......

classic

User review rating: 0 August 21, 2006

I loved this movie! And with such a star-studded cast, how could one not? Meryl Streep, Lily Tomlin, Woody Harrelson, Kevin Kline, Lindsay Lohan...the list goes on and on. And another thing which contributes so much to the film`s success is the fact that it`s based upon and even uses the set, musicians and crew of the long-running radio show of the same name. It`s just got an air of authenticity that makes it possible to just lose yourself until the credits roll. Bravo!

I really enjoyed this movie, it was well acted and very funny, very entertaining movie.

I thought this was a quirky story with surpisingly good singing. A very real connection with a small community, and remeniscent of a past era.

User review rating: 0 July 26, 2006

I thought that the piece had a very thin plot line. It was mostly a character exploration with some songs thrown in for good measure. My guess is that most actors signed on to work with eachother and didn`t really mind that the story wasn`t that great.

I think the actors made this movie and I really liked it.

If you yearn for simpler days and treasure those all too few square dances of your youth, this is your movie.

Watching Woody Harrelson and John C. Reilly sing "Bad Jokes" was worth the price of admission. I laughed until I cried and my sides hurt. Great characters all around.

Loved it! Love to listen to it on the radio, so was great to take a behind the scenes look at what it COULD be like.

User review rating: 0 July 08, 2006

I thought it was a bit too slow and there was too uch singing in it.Also I thought it was cheesy and sentamental considering it was a Robert Altma film.

User review rating: 0 July 06, 2006

A wonderful movie, fantastic cast, and a perfect level of music to story, as far as musical films goes. The bittersweet tone running throughout was fantastic.

I go to movies for entertainment and I was entertained very nicely

I loved this movie because it was so funny. The Jokes in the movie were hilarious. Lindsay Lohan has a part in this movie where she sings a song About Frankie and Johny. It was a make you feel good movie. Lindsay Lohan Rocks

Great cast of actors to carry this movie

User review rating: 0 June 19, 2006

Performances very good; even Lindsay Lohen stepped up to the "production" plate. However, too much like a radio show was filmed and no real plot continuity.

User review rating: 0 June 16, 2006

Great cast - was a great fan of the radio show so this was icing on the cake !!!

User review rating: 0 June 14, 2006

Excellent performances by all in this wildly entertaining film.

User review rating: 0 June 14, 2006

The movie lacked a story line. Kevin Klien`s character seemed to be completely out of place. A bunch of big names doesn`t equal a good movie.

User review rating: 0 June 13, 2006

Good performances by all in this film, Singing was good for these actors. A little slow at the beginning and great at the end.

User review rating: 0 June 13, 2006

Quite an entertaining movie. It was not boring and moved right along with music and comedy. An all-star cast who were great.
