Movie Reviews

Beliefnet - 9/10 by Nell MinowThere may be nothing new here, but like one character's favorite recipe, sometimes bland can still be tasty.
Village Voice - 9/10 by Brian MillerThe movie wrong-foots Zellweger from the start. She's not enough the ice queen, like Sigourney Weaver in "Working Girl," for us to accept her transition into adorable Melanie Griffith.
Christian Science Monitor - 9/10 by Peter RainerThe only point of interest in New in Town is sociological. In the current economic climate, this comedy about workers whose livelihood is rescued by a benevolent boss represents the ultimate wish-fulfillment fantasy. Don't spend your hard-earned discretionary cash on it.
MovieWeb - 9/10 by Julian RomanIt pains me to admit, and I may be distinctly in the minority here, but I really liked this film.
BrianOrndorf.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfNew in Town is nothing short of a character assassination attempt on Minnesota, and even worse, it's a ghastly romantic comedy that requires heavy sedation to endure.
About.com - 8/10 by Rebecca MurrayThe only novel aspect of New in Town was the weather %u2013 and jokes about freezing your butt off can only carry a film so far.
Detroit News - 8/10 by Tom LongYes, this movie offers dumb hope in wretched times, but for many, dumb hope is preferable to no hope at all.
Toronto Star - 8/10 by Greg QuillThere's a Capra-esque joy in this small and unpretentious movie.
ColeSmithey.com - 8/10 by Cole Smithey"New In Town" is an uncomplicated fish-out-of-water romance with just enough modern-day social commentary to give it some substance.
Monsters and Critics - 8/10 by Ron WilkinsonThe warmth of love thaws even the coldest of corporate hearts in this easy-to-take Zellweger vehicle.
