Return to Me Reviews

This movie is definitely what you could call a massive chick-flick. Indeed, I’m pretty sure that both my wife and my mother-in-law really enjoyed it but, to be honest, I really had a hard time to care for the whole thing. I mean, sure, both David Duchovny and Minnie Driver had some pretty good chemistry but, in my opinion, the concept was actually pretty lame. Obviously, it was supposed to be sweet and charming but it just didn’t work for me at all. In fact, I have actually a weak spot for romantic features but it’s a pity most of them are based on some supposedly clever concept. Indeed, I always find it a misguided choice because if the characters work, if their romance is compelling enough, you don’t actually need such a gimmick. In a movie like this one, when the characters are rather weak, when the love story is not really mind-blowing, they always put the focus on the concept but it is always underwhelming and this movie was a perfect example. To conclude, I might be a little too harsh on this one but I don’t think it is worth a look, except maybe if you are a die-hard fan of the genre.

Return To Me has incredible casting, fun music, an engaging story, and is appealing to men and women both. The wonderful story of true attraction being to a person's heart, you'll cry some, but you'll laugh more during this film!
