Cowboys and Angels

I rented this movie ready to be disappointed as what many other typical Hollywood movies have done. But I was nicely surprised. It is, actually a sweet and heart-warming romantic comedy.

Yes, I know it is a bit unrealistic and cliché but life is already so dark and heavy, why not open our little hearts to embrace a little fantasy and a touch of Heaven? I know in reality I may never find the one. Nevertheless, it's nice to see that others do - even on a screen.

In an age in which violence and horror movies rampant, a film of such touches my heart in its subtle yet powerful ways.

A plea to my own angel, please come unlock my jaded heart.

This movie is somewhat of a romantic cliché movie, but somehow it really moved me. Everybody has been in and out love again can relate to this movie. It makes you smile and believe there is still hope of finding true love. I especially liked the music in the film - it really goes well with the story. Mia Kirshner plays a really good role - you can't help but like her character. The lead male character is also quite well played and overall the actors are doing a fair job. A nice movie for a rainy Sunday. And don't forget to invite your girlfriend (or future girlfriend!) - she will properly like it if she is the romantic type, I think.

We thought this movie held a lot more meaning, and was a more complete story, than one would have expected. The DVD version is sparse, has only 2.0 audio, and no sub-titling (though it was easy enough to hear). The theme song by Sasha Lazard, "Angeli" was so beautiful that I got up before the credits had finished and purchased it on iTunes. I first saw this via Netflix but loved it so much I picked it up on Amazon for $10, and it will be watched as one of those we go back to at least once a year.

The two leading ladies were absolute knockouts. I'd recommend this to anyone with a heart.

This is a movie surrounding Adam Trese. Seeing this movie predicts a coming shining star. Trese not only looks nice but also acts well. With time and nice opportunities, he will be something. A nice movie to watch. A nice romance comedy to relax.

I've seen this film several times and it has never failed to move me or hold my interest right to the end. The film starts out with Danny, a lovely guy that has just been ditched by his future wife. In coming to terms with this he meets Jo Jo, a mysterious and attractive woman that takes over his life. Danny is so overwhelmed by her that he follows her on her favourite pastime of attending weddings all over town, uninvited and somehow unnoticed. There is a surreal feel to many of the scenes with the aid of an enigmatic soundtrack. Particularly memorable is a scene where Jo Jo goes to the aid of a bridegroom having doubts and whispers to him some magical words that lift his state of confusion. There's clearly something out of the ordinary about Jo Jo and yet Danny seems too besotted with her to probe into her background. But one day Jo Jo disappears leaving Danny in a bigger muddle than ever. After being knocked-out by some louts outside a bar he is woken by Candice, and on the story goes. The film works thanks to the natural feel to the acting and the clever handling by the director of the paranormal subject matter, i.e. angels. A wonderful idealistic romance that resolves well, but tinged throughout with sadness.
