Product ReviewsHope Floats (DVD, 1998)

A Rainbow's End

This movie has so many of the qualities that make up a life----love, heartache, loss, regaining happiness, learning about reality. The characters are wonderful and this is a movie that lets me "know" them. The title, "Hope Floats" truly says it all. NancyRead full review...

Excellent movie then and now

Suburb acting and a talented cast make this movie work. At time it is a tear jerker, but the struggle to rebuild and re-learn to live makes this movie believable. The main character played by Bullock also learns through life's hard lesson that what comes around goes around when she must return to her hometown where she reigned as Corn Queen, but this time as a now single Mom who's husband deserted her by dumping her on a talk-show for her best friend. With her perfect life to follow her perfect teen years it is up to her to rebuild her live and regain who she now is. It was not touted as one of Sandra Bullock's best movies, but it is and maybe one of the best kept secrets. When I saw it in the theater years ago I knew it was a keeper. Gena Rowlands, Harry Connick, Jr. and Mae Whitman just to name a few are a strong, talented supporting cast.Read full review...

HOPE FLOATS

One of the late, great, Joey Martin Feek's favorite movies; and Mrs. Feek wasn't much into watching movies. She'd would rather read a good romance novel.
Well, this movie is like a good read; you feel refreshed and in a better mood than you were in when you sat down to watch it.Read full review...

Great Little Movie For Curling Up And Watching

Filled with a range of emotions, great music, and wonderful, warm acting this movie is perfect to curl up to on an evening when you might be wondering if it was a good idea to throw out your no good, cheating man. The believable tale of the relationship path for a woman and her daughter in ever shifting circles of support and love is one that will leave you crying, laughing, and hoping. Uplifting messages of "life goes on and gets better" are throughout this charming film and reach out even more in a wonderful selection of beautiful songs. Don't be surprised if you find yourself buying the soundtrack after you have watched this little remembered film. Hope Floats is a great way to spend an evening crying a little and feeling great afterwards. Enjoy it tonight!Read full review...

Hope Floats

I bought this for my Secret Santa person over the holidays, she said she liked Chick Flicks and this has been one of my all time favorites! Harry Connick Jr is sexy as ever and he and Sandra Bullocks character really click for me. It is sad but also has an upswing of hope that we all need. Dislike?? I wished her mother hadnt died but other than the story line nothing really, it's typical life, men cheat and damage other peoples lives and the lucky few survive and move on.Read full review...

Feel Good for the soul

Great movie of love and loss. Various types of love- Mother, daughter, Father, daughter, Grandmother and grandchildren, plus the hidden love from high school. Mixed in with blind sided betrayal.

Solid Performances

I love this movie. It's embraces that small town feeling and holds great messages within it. Solid performances by all actors. Not overly dramatic so it seems real.
