    I'm a sucker for romances. i really liked this movie, i thought the characters were original and well acted and although the story line was predictable within the first 15 minutes of the film it was carried out creatively.

    I like the song, but the movie made me want to puke. But then again, I don't like most romantic comedies.

    Yep, Love the song and saw the movie. Ya right, was predictable within first 15 minutes...but none the less, made me laugh. Not much for romance movies really, tho some are kewl...just makes me long for something healthy & real....prefer action suspense movies myself.

    LOL I keep getting that stuck in my head. :)

    I've seen bits of the movie, really should watch it right through. Prefferably when I'm not in a cynical intellectual mood.

    hehe..

    Big wheels keep on turning
    Carry me home to see my kin
    Singing songs about the southland
    I miss alabamy once again
    And I think it’s a sin, yes

    Well I heard mister young sing about her
    Well, I heard ole neil put her down
    Well, I hope neil young will remember
    A southern man don’t need him around anyhow

    Sweet home alabama
    Where the skies are so blue
    Sweet home alabama
    Lord, I’m coming home to you

    In birmingham they love the governor
    Now we all did what we could do
    Now watergate does not bother me
    Does your conscience bother you?
    Tell the truth

    Sweet home alabama
    Where the skies are so blue
    Sweet home alabama
    Lord, I’m coming home to you
    Here I come alabama

    Now muscle shoals has got the swampers
    And they’ve been known to pick a song or two
    Lord they get me off so much
    They pick me up when I’m feeling blue
    Now how about you?

    Sweet home alabama
    Where the skies are so blue
    Sweet home alabama
    Lord, I’m coming home to you

    Sweet home alabama
    Oh sweet home baby
    Where the skies are so blue
    And the governor’s true
    Sweet home alabama
    Lordy
    Lord, I’m coming home to you
    Yea, yea montgomery’s got the answer

    I wouldn't say the characters were original.. more like cardboard actually.. there really wasn't any character development to speak off. Reese Witherspoon could have been acting in any other romantic comedy.

    Still I liked it :).. fluff but enjoyable fluff and would be better only for watching with the gal I love :).
