Plot: Renée Zellweger and Harry Connick Jr. headline this romantic comedy about an ambitious Miami executive who meets the man of her dreams and begins reassessing her big-city values after accepting a temporary transfer to the middle of nowhere. When it comes to climbing the corporate latter, Lucy Hill (Zellweger) is a good few rungs above her closest competitor; she's got ambition to spare, and she cares more about driving the latest model car and filling her closet with shoes than making friends around the office. Offered a temporary assignment restructuring a manufacturing plant in the snowbound town of New Ulm, Lucy accepts, knowing that a big promotion is just around the corner. But New Ulm and Miami couldn't be more different if they were each located on separate continents, and as Lucy warms to the locals she discovers that there's more to life than making top dollar and wearing the latest fashions. When handsome local Ted Mitchell (Harry Connick Jr.) takes an interest in Lucy, it isn't long before the whole town is abuzz with rumors of romance, and the girl from the city discovers that a bit of rural magic could work wonders for her outlook on life. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

What a great movie!!! A delightful romantic comedy! I watched it 3 times in a row and caught something different each time. Also thoroughly enjoyed to actor and director interviews on the Special Features after watching the movie. Just hearing how they had to endure those horrible below zero weather conditions while filming this movie was increadible and makes you want to watch the movie all over again. Harry Connick Jr was his usual wonderful self and as a sweet hometown like guy (similar to the charachter he played in Hope Floats) makes me wonder where all these nice hometown guys are and how come I can't find someone sweet like that!!! Renee Zellweger was fantastic too and played a very sweet and funny roll! And the way the hometown people pulled together makes you hope there is still that "we can do it" attitude and spirit still somewhere in America. Tapioca pudding, anyone???

Very predictable but cute at the same time. I like Renee Zellweger and enjoy seeing her fall in love on screen which is something she does the great majority of the time in her movies. The movie was ok.

Great comedy and romance. Renee and Harry have good chemistry! Hometown kind of movie. Funny situations and good old fashion humor! Spectacular picture quality. Blu Ray rocks!

I took my parents to see this movie in the theaters, and we all loved it. I'm from a small town in Minnesota, not unlike the portrayal of New Ulm (a real town, unlike Golden Girls' Rose's (played by Betty White) St. Olaf) I think to truly appreciate this movie you need to be from Minnesota, otherwise it's just another dumb rom-com. But when you get the jokes from the inside it can't be beat!

Four stars for a somewhat realistic and 100% funny look at small town Minnesota life. I'm knocking it one star from being a typical rom-com, which people who aren't from the middle of nowhere in the frozen tundra might not get.
