Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Surprising deeper subplot!
Since Dolly Parton is such an upbeat, playful persona, I only expected to have fun with this film. I was happily surprised by the integrity message that the film wraps up with. I also appreciated the cautionary note about turning one's major life decisions over to a talk radio (or television!) host who only has a few sound bites about your life.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - IT'S ONLY ME, BUT:
DOLLY'S CHARACER TAKES A JOB AT A RADIO STATION ON A TALK SHOW AND IT IS NEVER QUITE THE SAME. THE LISTENERS LOVE HER. HER BOSS IS GOING NUTS DUE TO ALL THE CONFUSION BUT THE RATINGS ARE SOARING. AND SHE IS CREATING HAVOIC FOR AN INVESTIGATING REPORTER TRYING TO DIG INTO HER PAST. GOOD MOVIE. JM



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - How Can You Go Wrong?
This is Dolly doing what she does best - entertaining. The comedic lines and the fun she has in this movie are exceptional. It is an excellent movie that truly exemplifies some of her great, optimistic outlooks on life. It's a movie with Dolly Parton - it can't be bad.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It's an open-matte transfer.
First things first to those who have indicated the film is cropped to 4:3, actually it's not. It's an open-matte transfer, which means the area at the top and bottom that would normally be cropped during projection is left open. Therefore, you aren't seeing it as intended, but you are not missing any picture information either. If you have a widescreen TV just fiddle with your aspect control to frame it properly. Still an anamorphic widescreen transfer would have be preferred.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - country girl in the city
Parton portrays a country girl moved to the city and does a superb job of it. Some funny moments and some tender ones too. Excellent movie for the whole family.
