In America [2003] Movie Reviews on CinemaClock

Add another voice to the choir of praise. Just returned from seeing this movie and it is still echoing in me. Wonderful performances by all of the cast - the young sisters were especially outstanding - to the point that I completely forgot at times that this film was being *acted*. I laughed, I cried and (having not read any reviews or seen any trailers prior to viewing) I did not know what was coming next. You can't ask for more than that from a movie. If you liked movies like Life As A House and Whalerider, then I think you will very much like this gem of a movie. If LOTR and Matrix is more your speed, you will find this one a bit of a snoozer. To each his own.
