Peggy Sue Got Married Reviews

One of the lesser Copollá's and thast´s all right, because its a nice recreation of period more than moral or criminal or formative exploration. Cage is more than ok, even better than Turner.

Francis Ford Coppola completely ruled the 70's but it was as much a blessing as it was a curse. I mean, basically, for each movie he made afterwards, the audience was expecting another 'Godfather' or another 'Apocalypse now'. Well, it never happened and with each new release directed by him, his reputation continued to diminish and, nowadays, he is pretty much considered a has-been. Personally, I think it's a shame because he has actually made some decent flicks which are terribly overlooked and this movie is a perfect example. I mean, I’m not a huge fan and it is definitely nothing amazing whatsoever but I thought it was rather harmless and fairly entertaining. In fact, it reminded me of ‘Back to The Future’. Indeed, if you remove all the fancy gadgets, the plots are actually quite similar and maybe that’s why I had a hard time to get into this story. Indeed, I never really get this obsession to go back to the American 60’s as if it was the best time period ever. Anyway, to conclude, I thought it was a decent watch and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are interested in Francis Ford Coppola’s work.

I love "Peggy Sue Got Married". I have seen it several times now, though I don't see how it can strictly be called a comedy. It does contain some comedic moments, but it's more of a drama than a comedy. Yes, the movie is a bit dated now, but Kathleen Turner is great in her role. It's one of those feel-good movies that you can just sit and watch time and time again, even though Nicolas Cage is a bit annoying in his role (not a huge fan).

The movie also has Jim Carrey, Joan Allen, and Helen Hunt, among others in it, in smaller roles, but they all do a great job with their parts.
