Raising Helen, 15 May 2005
10/10
Author: mhb_0250 from U.S. Virgin Islands

This movie was a nice surprise. It speaks to the young, single career women who think they have it all.

It has a lesson, and not all movies do. We learn the importance of family and how hard it is to raise children. But the resounding message that is sent is that sometimes we think we know what we want, then when a life-altering experience happens, we rethink what we originally thought.

I loved the script writing in this movie-- very entertaining and intelligent. I thought the acting was superb.

I think kate hudson was so natural and endearing. A dumb-blonde? No... this woman is the woman to watch for... move over Nicole Kidman...you have serious competition here.
