Under the Tuscan Sun - Sometimes Our Wishes Are Answered in Ways We Don’t Expect

by AliventiAsylum AliventiAsylum is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Feb 07 '04
Pros: beautiful scenery, Diane Lane
Cons: the story
I generally hate movies which depict the be-all-to-end-all of a woman’s life as finding “a good man” to settle down with. It just seems to me that I want my daughters to be happy, with or without a partner in their lives, and showing ...

Pros: Lane and Oh. Entertaining movie. Beautiful scenery in Italy.

by kld718 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jun 03 '04
Pros: Lane and Oh, cinematography
Cons: characters not fully developed to their potential
Friday nights usually means movie night with a friend at my house because we're both beat by the end of the week. God willing, I’m usually out of work by 5 on Fridays. She’s a nurse, so rotates shifts most weeks and sometimes ends up working ...

Movies We Obsess Over #1: Under the Tuscan Sun

by beckish Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Sep 17 '06
Pros: Touching, emotional, well-acted.
Cons: None.
My husband and I are movie addicts. There, I've said it. Out in the open. No more hiding behind closed doors as we watch the same movies over and over and over again. And I do mean over AND over. There is a group of our favorite movies that we have ...

Preamble I'm excited to be home. For two weeks, I've been everywhere but here which has put a huge cramp into my theater-going experience. I had no clue what was even out this week. Once I caught up, my first choice was to see ...

Let The Sun Shine In

by MrsNormanMaine Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Oct 15 '03
Pros: Diane Lane. Sandra Oh. Ravishing locations.
Cons: Cliche upon cliche. Unfocused narrative.
I have had a chance to read the treatment for the proposed musical version of The Satanic Verses and have decided that it's just not the project for me. It seems to take place predominantly in some third world country and I just don't think my ner ...

Pros: Decent characters and acting
Cons: Telegraphs whole story, Loses direction and purpose in the middle
For several months now, my mother has been bugging me to watch the movie "Under The Tuscan Sun," though she and I share little in the way of cinematic tastes. This could be a side effect of me generally having taste and her enjoying movies for ...

The Sun Does Not Always Shine Brighter on Sappy Romance Movies

by momofmichael , Sep 01 '08
Pros: Some of the cast is nice to look at.
Cons: Lots of pieces don’t add up or live up to the hype
THE PLOT I am a romantic at heart and generally enjoy any chick-flick, romance type movie. Under the Tuscan Sun certainly seemed to classify as that so when I had a chance to see it I watched with interest. Especially because I am a fan of ...

Do you think people mind so much liberty with a book?

by WBDBaj , Oct 15 '03
Pros: The Acting
Cons: It's just not the book.
I read the book behind this title, and in fact, all that's left is the title, the house, Tuscany, and the Polish workers which is true to the narrative. The rest - pure fiction! And, it's not a literary fictitious work. It would be difficult to do ...

Basking In The Warm Glow Under The Tuscan Sun

by crckerjack , Apr 18 '04
Pros: Diane Lane, Italy, engaging story
Cons: Chick flick, somewhat predictable
Although Under The Tuscan Sun is the very epitome of the term chick flick, it is a film as charming and romantic as the city it is set in. And, for the guys, we have the beautiful and expressive Diane Lane cast in the lead role as a woman struggling to ...
