Reese Witherspoon leads us on a journey
through heartbreak, hope, and the trials and tribulations that
everyday life throws at us. She plays her role so well that you find
yourself wanting to laugh and cry right along with her.
Her daughters are played by Lola
Flanery and Eden Grace Redfield. They bring great personalities to
both roles and the interactions between them provide a lot of the
laughs in this film. I expect to be seeing a lot more from each of
them in future.
Candace Bergen portrays her mother, and
has some key scenes in the movie. She is such a talented actor and
is just great in this!
The three guys who end up living in the
guest house are played by Pico Alexander, Nat Wolff, and Jon
Rudnitsky. They each have a unique personality, and you'll find
yourself pulling for each one at various points in the film. Their
characters could have used a bit more depth – including some
annoying traits to make the relationship possibilities a little more
real life. At times it just felt like they were a little too perfect
to believe.
The role of the husband is
played by Michael Sheen. You'll find yourself having a love/hate
sort of reaction to him. I felt like I was mad at him for hurting
her, yet also wanting them to make up and have a happily ever after.
You'll just have to see how it turns out.
The producers did a really good job of
using a music overlay on some key scenes – dialog was barely
audible – as it really didn't need to be heard – you could tell
what was going on just by watching and it kept you hooked to the
story.
Home Again is a great story about
focusing on what's important in life, and doing the best with what
happens. There are enough twists and turns to keep you guessing the
whole time, and without spoiling it, the ending will warm your heart.
