Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - "Once Around"
An older and very quirky love story. This one has pretty much gone unnoticed, but it's worth checking it out. If you like Richard Dreyfuss and Holly Hunter, you will like this movie.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - *A Wonderful Movie*
I watched this and it really made me want to be a part of this family.A movie that shows love,happiness,and sadness.It shows that sometimes its hard for a family to stick together,but you need to.I enjoyed it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Once Around
If you come from an Italian/American family (and I do) this is a "got to see" movie. Right up there with Moon Struck, it follows the trials and tribulations of growing up in such a family.

And the fabulous supporting acting of Danny Aiello, and Gina Rolands rounds it out to be one super, see over and over again movie. Pop some corn, grab a box of Kleenex and enjoy!

Then she takes him home to her Boston family which doesn't like the guy. All the ingredients are there for an outstanding ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of the Best
This is one of the best movies I've ever seen.

I loved everything about it: the acting, directing, and screenplay are top-notch. Richard Dreyfus knocked me out with his brilliant, ought-to-get-an-Academy-Award performance as the Lithuanian suitor. He is so intensely outgoing, he wants so much to embrace and touch people that it hurts to watch him. He is vibrant, enthusiastic, life-loving and warm, but one of the pivotal themes of the movie is that he is socially very clumsy. Typically, ... Read More
