GREAT! worth your money January 1, 2006 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
A great infusion of romance and comedy. It shows kate in a great light. It handles the problem of three orpaned childern when their parents are killed in a car crash. A great family film or on a date.pA great film overall and worth every penny.
Heartwarming and Heartwrenching March 13, 2007 Dismal Angel (Scotland) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a funny, heartwarming and sometimes heartwrenching tale that I think really gave Kate Hudson a chance to shine.
br /
br /Helen Harris, a free-spirited, fun-loving and single fashion executive is enjoying being free-spirited, fun-loving and single in New York, with no plans of settling down and definately no plans of having children any time soon. Her only plan is to live life to the full but that is cut short.
br /
br /Tragedy strikes when her older sister (and her husband) are killed in an accident, leaving three children without parents. Despite Helen isn't the best candidate (and her older living sister would be a better mother), she's given legal guardianship over the kids. Predictably, her whole life is thrown into a downward spiral.
br /
br /No longer can she afford a chic apartment, nor can she find the time to work insane hours in fashion and her social life comes to a complete halt. Taking care of three kids proves not only physically exhausting, but mentally exhausting and heartwrenching; it all begins to take it's toll. No matter how hard Helen tries, she feels the pressure building that she will never be the perfect mother the kids need.
br /
br /This film has it all - comedy, weepy bits, and a little romance thrown in for good measure. The supporting cast are great, and the acting of the youngest kid will blow you away.
br /
br /Definately a film I'd recommend.
A Brilliant Original Movie December 30, 2004 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Raising Helen is a fantastic film based on the story of when Helen's sister and her sister's husband die, she is given custody of their kids. Problem is though she dosen't have a clue how to raise them!pThis is a fantastic film, with plenty of funny scenes and extremely funny characters, like her neighbour who was by far the funniest character. Go Buy, you won't be dissappointed!

When I saw this in the cinema straight after it ended I said I wanted it, this is such a good film with comedy, drama and a bit of romance in it to! brIs good for the girls as a chick flick has the emotional and funny bits in it! And is good for the guys to gawk at kate hudson, my fiance liked it anyways!! brI think its a good film for all the family or if you dont have one its good for the grown ups to.
