MCT:October 6, 2008Not what expected.
Could not believe lack of chemestry between actors. With all being pretty good ones. -
MCT:October 4, 2008To me, this movie seems to be about the choices people are confronted with in their lives. Who to marry, what or who to have faith in, who to believe in and how to be a parent. All the different relationships we have in life and how we handle them. I might have to buy this one... I'll watch it again before sending it back.

This movie is about fate...They took so long to pass the message which has been passed in many different movies...Acting was good...

Hunt played a powerful role in this film. The storyline was moving but the ending may leave you feeling empty.
-
MCT:September 24, 2008A beautiful story. Helen Hunt looks exceptionally haggard in this movie and I am not sure why. Colin Firth is amazing as always and you can't help but laugh at the antics of Bette Midler.

A bittersweet combination of comedy and drama, this sensitive film has enough strong material in it to make it worth seeing, even if it sometimes feels under-developed and a little too heart-tugging. Helen Hunt stars in, directed and co-wrote Then She Found Me, and she handles each chore beautifully. Yet even with its frequently hilarious scenes, the film doesn't feel like a comedy. It's more like a relational character study punctuated with moments of humour, pain and tough reality, as the plot's serious turns vividly bring out the central theme that we both love and hurt the people around us. In other words, it's not quite funny or original enough to be particularly notable. But at least it's a fresh take on the chick flick.

VERY worthwhile, heartfelt & sincere. Jolting performances from Hunt, Midler, & Firth. I loved it...

Not a bad movie, but it can be summed up to one scene where Bette Midler holds Helen Hunt's hands and questions her faith. But Bette looks like Helen's daughter.

MCT:September 13, 2008Great movie by Helen Hunt. Amazing story plot about a woman who meets her birth mother after the death of her adopted mother. In a course of a week, her world embarks into a talespin. Fantastic cast- Helen Hunt, Bette Midler, Colin Firth, and Matthew Broderick. Definitely worth seeing!

Let me first start off by saying I love, love, love Helen Hunt and Bette Midler. Now that being said this was a good movie very unglamorous which was nice to see.
Helen Hunt whom plays a teacher is desperate to give birth to a child but nothing seems to be going her way. She has one day that experiences difficulty with her husband (Matthew Broderrick) and shortly thereafter her adoptive mother passes away. Well, enters her biological mother (Midler). A very real view at a woman dealing with human everyday issues that is touching...worth seeing. -

Not my cup of tea. Blah. But I liked Colin Firth in this one, he seems genuine, hurting, somewhat serious. Helen Hunt, Matthew Broderick and Bette Midler do not do it for me in this one. Nothing impressed me about the story or the direction, Helen Hunt's first big screen writing and directing. Id had it's moments. Bette Midler was pretty good.

I find it interesting that Helen Hunt's character on 'Mad About You' never wanted a baby, and in this movie she plays a woman who can't have a baby.
-

I love Colin Firth, but I don't like Helen Hunt, so this was not the best movie for me to see. Her acting is always so flat and weak I find and this story was rather predictable.
-

It always amazes me that you read a description, put a film in the DVD player, sit back thinking you'll see one thing and get something completely different from it. Thank you Helen Hunt for always entertaining me with your thorough thoughtfulness. You are truly an unsung hero.

A really wonderful, engaging, sweet and funny film. Bette is wonderful as always and Hunt did a great job with the material.

first direction for Hunt, and she's pretty good. Lines are very clever. Firth's character is beautiful. Midler is stunning
-
MCT:July 27, 2008
It was just an average sorta movie with good performances coming mainly from Colin Firth and Bette Midler.
-
MCT:June 23, 2008Not the best romantic movie. Especially the hyper Bette Midler got on my nerves. The story is OK and Helen Hunt and Colin Firth play their best. Just dón't like the casting for Broderick and Midler.

I watched this movie because of Helen Hunt. Although the movie is not disappointing but I do feel that something is missing. The movie is categorized as comedy but there's not much comedy in it actually. Or maybe this what they call a dark comedy?
-
MCT:June 6, 2008
Beautifully written, and engaging story of "people of a certain age". Colin Firth is DIVINE in this movie!

Though the story was not all that bad, I couldn't stop fixating on the fact that Helen Hunt looked really bad.
She looked tired and boarder-line anorectic.
She did a good job acting though, and turned a movie that wouldn't have been much more than a snoozer into something respectable. -

It's nice to know that Helen Hunt directed this. It's just her thing and you know it. Controlled , no over the top delivery of lines. Love it that she kept the wrinkles and laugh lines which makes her one of the smartest in Hollywood (in the league of Jodie Foster). Good to see Bette Midler playing a mother role again (reminiscent of Stella).
