This is a beautiful movie. It's great when some big names come to a project that is so clearly not what MTV and Pepsi say is what we're supposed to watch. The music is... Full Review

There is something endearing about folk and grass-roots music that endures even in the most pop-degenerate times. I like to think that's what Robert Altman was thinking a... Full Review

A Prairie Home Companion is quite a gem considering is lack of plot. This is a movie for those who like movies, and not necessarily a story that has a begging and end. W... Full Review

I'm not sure where to begin. This movie was so disappointing. From the trailers and the initial buzz I settled in for what I thought would be a great 2 hours. But it w... Full Review

How could Keillor write something so unfunny?

The movie was flat and unfunny. As a fan of Keillor and the radio show, I expected a witty movie. I didn't break a smile once, let alone a laugh. The direction was ploddi... Full Review

This movie was so irritating and pointless, we left about 45 minutes into the movie. This may not be a fair review, since I didn't actually see the whole thing. As enjoya... Full Review

This movie should have stayed on the radio. What a lame story - and, what was with the "angel"? That part made no sense - she didn't help, she just wandered around and ma... Full Review

Kind of boaring, no plot and not that funny. I didn't expect this movie to have much of a plot but I expected it to be funnier.
