DESCRIPTION
A successful New York fashion designer has agreed to marry but first she returns to her old home in Alabama to sever ties with her high school sweetheart and husband, who refuses to give her a divorce. Genre: Feature Film-Comedy Rating: PG13 Release Date: 28-DEC-2003 Media Type: DVD
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
