Description
This delightfully entertaining romantic comedy stars Reese Witherspoon (LEGALLY BLONDE) as sophisticated Melanie Carmichael, a rising New York clothing designer who suddenly finds herself engaged to the city's most eligible bachelor. But this is no fairy tale romance for Melanie. She has skeletons in her fashion-filled closet that include Jake -- the backwoods husband she married in high school who refuses to divorce her. Determined to end their marriage and sever all ties with her past once and for all, Melanie returns to Alabama. But home starts to tug at her heartstrings, and what she thought she wanted may not be what she wants at all.

As formulaic, utterly inoffensive romantic comedies go, Sweet Home Alabama could be better, and could be worse. It's a variant of Julia Roberts's Something to Talk About, with all the same strengths and weaknesses, and Reese Witherspoon is definitely its saving grace. As an Alabama country girl turned hot New York fashion designer, Witherspoon finds the genuine emotions hidden under a blandly familiar plot, making her character's romantic indecisiveness seem not only credible but disarmingly appealing. She's just agreed to marry the Camelot-bred son (Patrick Dempsey) of New York's no-nonsense mayor (Candice Bergen), but first she has to officially divorce the husband (Josh Lucas) she left behind years earlier... only to discover that their love is stronger than ever. The rest, of course, is a foregone conclusion, but with a sharp supporting cast and a few charming moments, Sweet Home Alabama will satisfy anyone who prefers safe, reassuring entertainment. --Jeff Shannon

Ya'll will love this movie October 4, 2008
Put on your Confederate grays, break out the Stars & Bars, grab your Southern bell, and snuggle up on the couch to watch this movie together for some quality snogging time. This is the best romantic comedy ever written.
"What you wanna be married to me for?" You'll have to buy the movie for the answer.
If you have a friend or relative who is a Civil War reenactor, give them this DVD as a gift.
A must see for those who love romantic comedies... September 29, 2008
I know a movie is good when I can't stop talking about it. I've been talking about this movie all day to everyone. It's just so good. And it may be a bit cliche, but there are elements and twists that keep you interested for more. It wasn't nearly as predictable as I thought it was going to be. It's also much funnier than I anticipated. There are so many romantic comedies that it almost seem to be the same movie with different actors, but this one is definitely worth watching. Reese Witherspoon is so cute with her accent!
 Proof That The South's Still Dead September 23, 2008
When you can't afford Matthew McC, hire Josh Lucas. America's new sweetheart, Reese Witherspoon -- night now, Sandy B. -- does her best at holding this most formulaic so-called romance together. Seriously, I'd type how I REALLY feel but I just realized that I'd be wasting more time than I did WATCHING this 122 minute fiasco. If you don't see every single angle coming, then you might as well stop seeing films. Utter trash. And I'm not certain that a single stereotype goes unwrapped. Reese, you're better than this. But after "Legally Blonde" and this, you might have to re-prove yourself.
