Sweet Home Alabama review

2002

Directed by Andy Tennant

Starring Reese Witherspoon, Patrick Dempsey and Josh Lucas

So this is about a girl named Melanie who leaves her down South life to live up North, fulfill her dreams of fashion, and get married. Maybe? Turns out she hasn't gotten divorced from her Southern husband Jake, who threw up on her at their wedding reception (ew). So when her boyfriend proposes, she returns home to settle things.

I thought this was cute and certainly funny at times, but we aaaaaall know how it's going to end. That's it's biggest problem: it is incredibly predictable. But it's good for those nights when you want to watch something, feel good, and maybe listen to that catchy tune, "Sweet Home Alabama".
