Product Description A young woman whose cheating husband reveals his infidelity to her on a national tv talk show is devastated. She heads home to her mother & the small town she left behind only to learn its never too late to give love another chance. Studio: Tcfhe Release Date: 01/13/2009 Starring: Sandra Bullock Gena Rowlands Run time: 114 minutes Rating: Pg13 Director: Forest Whitaker
Amazon.com Cute-as-a-button Sandra Bullock is a homemaker who learns that her husband and best friend are having an affair. The so-called best friend reveals this information on a national chat show, leaving Bullock devastated and disgraced. Heading back to her small hometown in Texas, she seeks refuge with her eccentric mother. Laconic Harry Connick Jr., a former high-school classmate, attempts to bring Bullock out of her depression and win her heart. He has, you see, been carrying a torch for her since they were kids. You will not need a crystal ball to see where this is going. It works as a middling romance, but is an annoying waste of potential. The script has much to say about finding your true identity, but does so with all the sentimentality and depth of a Hallmark card. --Rochelle O'Gorman

Hope Floats Review December 16, 2008 Hope Floats is an good ole fashioned love story that touches your heart. It addresses the age old issues of how to truly love someone, what it means, and even what it looks like. Make sure you have tissues close, this is a tear jerker!
Hope Floats November 22, 2008 This is a great movie, one of my all time favorites. It has a great cast and wonderful music.
Romance October 13, 2008 The movie is nicely paced and there are a few good lines. It is about the Mother-Daughter relationship and also divorce recovery. Unfortunately there is limited time in the screen play for character development. The movie moves along though and the acting is first rate. Sandra Bullock plays her role well and has a fine supporting cast.
Different Zone Coding a problem July 21, 2008 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
I did wonder if we'd be able to play and view these two DVDs, which we sure wanted to have for ourselves.
But being in a different Zone Code in Australia, we are having a problem viewing them!!!
We had no problem, with all of those "Deadliest Catch" series, so expected the some run with these!!!!
But that wasn't to be, obviously!!!!
We may have to look at buying another DVD Player, that will accept your different Zone code!!!!
So there you have it!!!!! But your service, was "next to none" and we won't hesitate to acquire your services along the way, but will need to be more careful, of what DVDs we order, in the future!!!!!
We could be interested in the "Ice Truckers" series, but it depends on the Zone coding!!!
Your sincerely, Louis Jones...............
Indeed, Hope does Float July 2, 2008 Having had a loss of my closest and dearest through cancer, this movie really touched me, even to the point of tears. But it was well acted, and the story was good
