Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

SnoopyStyle Marina (Demi Moore) grew up on a North Carolina island with her grandma and clairvoyant powers. She sees signs of her other half coming and Leo Lemke (George Dzundza) rows his boat on shore. She immediately marries the butcher and moves to NYC. Everybody is shocked at the pairing. Marina tells Robyn Graves (Margaret Colin) to stand up to love. She asks her psychiatrist boyfriend Dr. Alex Tremor (Jeff Daniels) to marry her but he rejects her. Marina convinces Leo to hire troubled Eugene (Max Perlich). Grace (Frances McDormand) owns the dress shop and Stella Keefover (Mary Steenburgen) is reserved. Tremor is angered as everybody takes Marina's advise and Leo is beside himself.Demi Moore is blonde. She's so very, very blonde. She's trying to play a southern unsophisticated mystic. If you could accept that, then this is a charming little film. It's such an odd turn for her that it's bound to rub some people the wrong way. It's admirable that she tries to be different but it doesn't feel entirely natural. There's a fine fable at its core if you get through the blonde outer core.

elmsyrup Mild spoilers below. This film is not very highly regarded, and there are some good reasons for that, but I enjoyed it a great deal.Demi Moore was the wrong choice for the lead role. Her Southern accent is shaky, and her down-home folksiness can irritate. I don't like Andie MacDowell much but she might have been a better choice. At least her accent wouldn't have leapt all over the map.However the supporting cast are mostly excellent, with interesting and quirky New York characters. I loved the psychiatric patient with the bowler hat, whose sessions keep getting interrupted. The plot is classic Woody Allen, a farcical series of partner-swapping japes, and the script is tight and funny. There are some great lines, for example: "I'm not a homewrecker! Well... that's not true... But I don't want to wreck YOUR home. I like your wife too much". And then later, from another character: "Why are you f'ing with my life"- to which the response comes back: "I never touched her!" There were parts of this film that were syrupy, but with the acidic script it avoided sugar-coma for the most part. At the end of the film, I was amused and touched. It's a fun watch, and I recommend it.

LeMarchand Demi Moore (with a blonde do) plays Marina, a clairvoyant who marries a New York butcher believing him to be the man of her dreams. Once she gets to New York she finds out that while her powers seem to be accurate when she advises other people, she may not have made the right choices for herself...I was forced to watch this movie by my girlfriend and found myself pleasantly surprised. It's no classic, but is a sweet, enjoyable film (though it's fairly easy to spot how things will work out early on).Over here in the UK the film received a "15" certificate, presumably for the one instance of strong language that actually jars with the rest of the film, and possibly for the lesbian character/s (though they barely touch each other on screen).I sympathised with most of the characters, especially Mary Steenburgen's would-be singer (she has a surprisingly good voice, by the way). Marina's complete accuracy when it comes to predictions that don't involve her is a little far-fetched, especially when she gets her own life in such a mess.Worth a look if you like low-key romantic comedies with a slightly magical twist (not a large genre!), or if you liked "Simply Irresistible" (1999) with Sarah Michelle Gellar. Not really one for most guys, though.

blaackbird I wouldn't elaborate if I didn't have to. Demi Moore is a joke from the moment you clap eyes on her, especially in this film, and then of all things, she opens her mouth! That puts the last nail in the coffin, you might say. Blech.And then she further appears in one big glob of wasted talent (herself excepted) that is as offensive as it is bewildering. I like my romantic comedic entanglement just a wee dram more innocent, I guess.Downright vulgar, which is sad if only because that vulgarity is the only stand-out feature in the story. It's rather like a comedian who uses a lot of profanity and offensive jokes to cover a lack of talent. That's just what it is, in fact.
