Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Tim Cogshell (223) for Boxoffice Magazine (2,896) on 26 Sep 2002

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Ty Burr (2,612) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 26 Sep 2002

Will the parties responsible for kidnapping Reese Witherspoon and putting a grinning replicant in her place please bring her back…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Bob Bloom (1,124) for Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) (1,017) on 26 Sep 2002

Witherspoon's natural charm and grace propel this vehicle. Her winning personality helps you overcome or ignore the movie's weaknesses…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Forrest Hartman (372) for Reno Gazette-Journal (441) on 26 Sep 2002

By all accounts, this is a typical romantic comedy, but the traditional story arc is overshadowed by its terrific cast…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Sean P. Means (2,056) for Salt Lake Tribune (1,927) on 26 Sep 2002

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Susan Granger (2,214) for www.susangranger.com (329) on 26 Sep 2002

If one defines a 'movie star' as an actress/actor whose presence can carry, even elevate, a mediocre movie, Reese Witherspoon is definitely…

By James Rocchi (1,075) for Netflix (481) on 26 Sep 2002

Reese Witherspoon stars in a startlingly well-written and enjoyable romantic comedy full of laughs and finely crafted characters…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Cherryl Dawson And Leigh Ann Palone (956) for TheMovieChicks.com (956) on 26 Sep 2002

The battle of the country spouse versus the city spouse - either way, Reese is the winner. Cute movie…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Bill Muller (519) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 26 Sep 2002

Using her blond, blue-eyed pout to full advantage, Witherspoon is just as likable as a Southern belle as she was as a California sorority girl…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Phil Villarreal (1,289) for Arizona Daily Star (983) on 26 Sep 2002

Melanie eventually slugs the Yankee. Too bad the former Murphy Brown doesn't pop Reese back…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Pam Grady (384) for Reel.com (1,232) on 25 Sep 2002

About the best that can be said about Sweet Home Alabama is that it will make a good airplane movie -- it's bland, mostly inoffensive, and…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Audrey Rock-Richardson (174) for Tooele Transcript-Bulletin (Utah) (173) on 25 Sep 2002

Director/screenwriter Andy Tennant did himself a huge service by hiring the impossible- not-to-like Witherspoon…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Eleanor Ringel Cater (614) for Atlanta Journal-Constitution (910) on 25 Sep 2002

Makes Smokey and the Bandit look like To Kill a Mockingbird…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Nell Minow (2,357) for Movie Mom (753) on 25 Sep 2002

It's official. Reese Witherspoon is the new Meg Ryan…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By William Arnold (1,101) for Seattle Post-Intelligencer (2,422) on 25 Sep 2002

Never rises above the level of TV sitcom mediocrity…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Hazel-Dawn Dumpert (105) for L.A. Weekly (3,142) on 25 Sep 2002

To call the film contrived would imply that some sort of effort had been made, when Sweet Home Alabama is nothing but dead lazy and slow…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Mary F. Pols (536) for Contra Costa Times (478) on 25 Sep 2002

The densest distillation of Roberts' movies ever made…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Walter Chaw (1,360) for Film Freak Central (1,643) on 25 Sep 2002

Has the unlikely distinction of rendering Witherspoon shrill, dull, and during one ugly drunken tirade, irredeemable…

Review of Sweet Home Alabama (2002)

By Victoria Alexander (762) for FilmsInReview.com (462) on 25 Sep 2002

I love Reese Witherspoon but hate cruel, dismissive disregard for nice characters. Warning-SPOILER ahead…
