 | I really don't care for movies in this genre but I watched it because David Duchovny was in it. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised.
The story is not "saccharinely" sweet as so many of this type are. The humor is very real life and not contrived just to make the audience laugh because something funny happened but laugh because life is so like that.
The characters are developed well, even the supporting cast. The film makes you care for each of them and feel as if you know them.
Yes, the story line...man loses wife to tragedy, woman gets wife's heart as a transplant, man and woman meet and fall in love...is not very plausible, but most things out of Hollywood hardly are. At least this time it comes off as believable. |

| Return to me is one of my favorite movies. It is both a drama and a romantic comedy.I alternately cry and laugh throughout the whole film. The story takes place in Chicago and is about a man named Bob (played by hot David Duchovny) who is madly in love with his wife of 15 years. She unexpectedly dies one evening in a car crash, which of course leaves him devasted and convinced he will never fall in love again. About a year later he meets a young woman named Grace (played beautifully by Minnie Driver)who works as a waitress in her grandfather's restaurant. She has lived a very sheltered life due to her parents early death and her health problems. She and Bob fall in love almost immediately when he comes into her restaurant one day while on a terrible blind date. Grace and Bob date for several months. Grace keeps a secret from him- she is too afraid of telling him she had a heart transplant for fear he will not be attracted to her once he sees her large scar. She almost tells him one evening at his house but doesn't when she discovers his wife died on the day she received a new heart. I won't tell anymore about the rest of the film. I don't want to spoil the ending. This movie has no sex or violence which I appreciate. It has beautiful scenery and beautiful background music, mainly old jazz from Frank Sinatra and other greats. I have a hard time believing anyone could dislike Return to Me. Buy a copy off amazon today. You will not regret it. |

| This is truly a great love story for all ages. It has a little bit of everything, and very clean humor. It's a unique story that is not typically used in romantic comedies, and David Duchovny is great in his role of Bob. |

| I just watched this movie for the first time last week. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Some drama, sad times, romance and comedy. I loved the "senior citizens" in this movie. When they danced along to Frank Sinatra, it cracked me up. What a nice story. I wish we could have more movies of this calibur! |

It's been so many years since I first watched this movie, yet I still can't seem to forget about it. It's one of those romantic movies that just get stuck in your head forever.
This is definitely a great movie, funny, sweet and romantic. Definitely a "must-have" for the cozy saturday night cuddling hours with your loved ones.
