Your perfect family film. Has your normal crushes and such. Lots of self confidence, and showing how much you need your friends. That timeless, and useful quote, "never let the fear of striking out, keep you from playing the game"...after I saw that movie, and heard that line, i changed my lifestyle of leaving everything, calm , boring, and not the way i wanted it. I was afraid that I wouldn't be accepted if i didn't do a certain thing, or if I did a certain thing. I was wrong, and this movie, strange as it may sound, gave me the nerve to do some things I never would have done on my own. Definitely something to see if your feeling left out, or need something that will show you, that dreams can come true.

This movie was very dramatic. A great performance from Jude Law, and Renee Zelweger. I think Nicole Kidman was a bit over the top. An appearance from Jack White of the band The White Stripes appears as Georgia, a fiddle playing band mate of Rudy's(zelweger) father. If a dramatic love story with a war tie in is what you crave, this is the movie for you. But there is much death and blood, and drinking, and major violence. It is not for the weak of heart. Definitely a movie that was really worked on, but its long like the lord of the rings, and i got a bit bored in the middle once nothing was happening, the end is where the most productive events happen. The ending is sweet and sad at the same time. See it for yourself and post here your views. see if you agree with me.
