Summary: Home Fries
Review: Home Fries is a great movie about a young women, Sally, played by Drew Barrymore, who is just trying to find a father for her unborn baby. The real father died of a mysterious heart attack. The man she finds, Dorian, played by Luke Wilson, played a mayjor part in the real fathers death.
Drew Barrymore and Luke Wilson had great chemistry on camera. I recomend this movie to fans of either Drew, Luke, and comedic romance movies. It has a great plot, is funny, romantic, and keeps you wondering what will happen next.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Weird, but funny comedy-drama.
Review: "Home Fries" is basically a dysfunctional comedy-drama about two brothers out to kill their unfaithful father's mistress, a fast-food cashier, because their vengeful mother (Catherine 'O Hara) asked them to. The mistress, Sally, who is nearly 9 months pregnant (Drew Barrymore), unwittingly charms one of the brothers (Luke Wilson) and falls in love with Sally. Then, things go downhill. The other brother, Angus, figures out Sally is their dad's mistress, and Wilson wants to protect her, because Angus wants to kill Sally.

Despite the dysfunctional plot, "Home Fries" is affectionately charming, witty, and not exactly seamlessly fits comedy, romance, a little mystery, and drama. All in all, "Home Fries" is good family fun, despite its PG-13 rating.

Rated PG-13 for thematic elements, language, and brief violence.

Summary: Really boring!!
Review: Although I love Luke Wilson ( I love you Luke!!!) I didn't like this movie at all. I hope to see Luke soon in a good movie. I fell in love with him the instant I saw him in 'Bad blood', an X-files episode. And this episode was written by Vince Gilligan, as is the movie so I gave it a try... Total disappointment!! I expected a lot better from my fav. X-files writer Vince Gilligan. Also, I didn't like Drew in this movie, I think I'm just fed up of seeing her in the same role over and over again.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Drew Barrymore has made her "opps!" movie once again
Review: Drew Barrymore has been having a hard time making good movies after making the the movie "Ever After" which i thought was a OKAY movie,which i gave **.but home fries was a horrible movie with a messed up script and plot.plus i thought it was too dark to be a comedy.*

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: She's so sweet
Review: Drew Barrymore is a doll in this short story comedy about a southern gal finding a father of her child. At first, I thought it was a comeback of the movie, Annie at the first glimpse of Sally at the burger drive in. I just love her charms besides her glossy lips. Although funny, the only criticism that sparks in this comedy is that Sally, who is so young and innocent and who got pregnated by an overwhelmingly older man should deliver a message to young girls to be responsible on their bodies. This is rated PG, so I would strongly urge parents out there to render advice. That's all folks, otherwise, it is a great comedy for the entire family to watch.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not worthy of Barrymore
Review: Drew Barrymore plays a pregnant girl who falls in love with the son of the man she is having an affair with.I think the son has also tried to kill the father because he knows he is having an affair,but does not know who with.I expected more from a Drew film.These aren't the days of Sketch Artist.She can actually be choosy.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Cute, but a little thin
Review: Drew is always a sight, but the story was thin. The quality of the picture was good, so was the sound.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: acting supurb- an art movie in every way
Review: Drew was exceptional--poignant, sweet, silly and determined.Along with other actors, Duvall etc. portrayed interesting characters with some dimension. I came away curious about her little brother, andwanted to know more. In some ways a "Tobacco Road". Every laugh is caught in a gasp,and each gasp ends in a laugh.
