Borrowed Hearts Audience Reviews

Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.
EssenceStory Well Deserved Praise
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Christmas-Reviewer BEWARE OF BOGUS REVIEWS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA. I AM VERY FARE ABOUT THESE FILMS.A year before "Will & Grace" Eric McCormack, starred in this film. If watch closely you can see has acting range is limited. He is good in this film but in the future I do not see him winning a Tony Award for Acting in a revival of "Death of a Salesman". Sam Field (Eric McCormack) is a high-powered businessman and scion of a rich industrialist family with his own factory. Though a workaholic, Sam manages to enjoy a playboy lifestyle, having one girlfriend after the other, while struggling with never having lived up to his father's expectations. One day, his spokesman and best friend Dave Hebert (Shawn Alex Thompson) explains that a wealthy potential buyer of his company believes that Sam is a loyal family man. Even though he is not amused by having to pretend to be a married father, he agrees to the scheme of hiring actors to play his wife and son. After some unsuccessful rehearsals with his hired family, Sam is about to give up all hope of landing the deal, when a 7-year-old girl suddenly enters his house.The film is not overly complicated. It is what it is. It has some very nice moments. My main problem is that you know how its going to end. The film however is a perfect example of a "Hallmark: film. Its family safe and you know what you are getting.
j89434 I am an old fashioned piano teacher and value watching a movie like this. It has a happy ending and promotes honesty and moral decisions. My heart feels happy after watching this movie, and I can recommend to my students.
jazmin2952 I think this movie is excellent--I watch it ever year at christmas time. It gives you a little fantacy to believe in that someday some dreams may come true. The little girl believes that her daddy is coming home soon and thinks the angel is going to help her.
donjasper Yesterday, on TV, my wife and I watched this movie for the first time, We found it to be an unexpected pleasurable movie discovery. Young Sarah Rosen Fruitman as Zoe "stole" every scene in which she appeared. This movie should definitely be a part of my collection. I strongly recommend it.
