3.0 out of 5 stars pedestrian middle-aged romance with likable characters
The setting is the star of the cliched and unimaginative film about a recently-divorced woman who buys an Italian villa on a whim (how nice for her!) and finds love and loses love and finds love again. Heck, how are even those of us who've gone through a divorce supposed to relate to this character, who can afford to buy a villa capriciously and fix it up and never worry...

4.0 out of 5 stars hooked on tuscany, July 18 2004
This review is from: Under the Tuscan Sun (VHS Tape)
I have watched this movie twice so far, and will probably watch it more often. Tuscany is a countryside that got me hooked the first time I saw it appearing in front of my train window, and it is the same with the movie. So, I could empathize, seeing the same happening to "Frances" (Diane Lane) when she sees Tuscany and decides to buy a house and stay. Diane Lane in one of her best roles, her face very expressive, her acting excellent.
The only disappointment came when I read the book the movie was made after: in the original autobiographic story, Frances Mayes is not at all a divorcee struggling with recurring bouts of loneliness, but rather, a woman already happily attached again to a new steady boyfriend, with a fulfilled life, and full of energy for the work on their new house. The movie trailer says, the character were "changed for dramatic effect". Wonder who did not like the idea that a woman could be happy again so soon, and decided it should not be shown in the movie that way ? Anyway, both are definitely worth your while, and in the book you can even find the recipes for all that great Italian cooking too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get Your Passport Ready, July 15 2004
This review is from: Under the Tuscan Sun (DVD)
I loved this movie. I don't usually watch too many movies but a friend loaned me this one and am I glad she did.
It is about a woman betrayed and how she goes on with her life. It made me think that I too could do something exciting with the rest of my life.
For the scenery of Italy alone, this movie is worth watching. Just beautiful.
I had never seen Diane Lane in any performances but I will seek her out now. All in all I give this movie a 5 star rating.

Product was in great shape. The movie is a total chick flick but a good one at that. Couldn't stop laughing and enjoying the scenery. Makes me want to go to Tuscany next summer.

A splendidly acted movie. Somewhat of a chick flick but a good story, nice scenery, good acting, Dianne Lane looking awesome, good supporting cast, etc. The wife just loves it and is appreciative.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect!, May 28 2008
By 
KindraWolf "Meemoe" (Toronto, Ontario CANADA) - See all my reviews
This was my first experience of Diane Lane. She is a captivating actor! I loved her role as much as I loved the story. Watching this movie I craved to watch it again and again before I finished watching it the first time. It had everything from drama to comedy. The person(s) in charge of casting - picked perfectly! I enjoyed every moment!

5.0 out of 5 stars I watched this over and over..., Nov 26 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Under the Tuscan Sun (DVD)
I absolutely loved this flick... I found it so easy to relate to Diane Lane's character and loved how real and raw the emotions of this flick were... It used to come on my local cable package at least once per weekend for a while and I would watch it every time!

2.0 out of 5 stars YAWN!, July 17 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Under the Tuscan Sun (DVD)
I eagerly anticipated watching this movie, as I thoroughly enjoyed the book; however, the movie shares only a passing resemblance to the book. It gets 2 stars because I enjoy Diane Lane and Tuscany is gorgeous, but other than that the movie was dull, Lane's character is nothing short of pathetic, and the ending is trite.
