ThiefHott Too much of everything

ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Rosie Searle 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.

Daniel Laumann Fordsmand To my surprise ''Playing by Heart'' was in fact a good movie.I saw it with my wife and we both liked it. Although we have seen the story - or should I say stories - before, but none of it is ever trite or offensive. It's all played out with such grace and nuance that even it's somewhat conventional ending is welcomed. The acting is well-acted and it is almost impossible not to like the long list of characters.Playing By heart is seriously playing by Skill. It is emotional,sensational,funny, and just the right movie for a bad day. A true feel-good film that shows us a sweet (but still realistic) picture about the many sides of love.

amboone19 A beautifully written, directed, and acted craft with one exception... Ryan Phillippe seriously disappoints, as usual, being the only star I could not justifiably keep amongst this cast. I didn't believe him for a second. It is not the first time in his career that he has left me wondering if he is acting or simply being himself. That said, it was the second viewing that reminded me that Jolie is a treasure both to behold and to experience. I feel ashamed that I have let her personal, overly tabloid-ed persona cloud my judgment of her unforgiving talent. She manages, so improbably, to make up for Phillippe's lack of commitment. Enjoy!

moonspinner55 A slick tapestry of not-so-disparate lives touched by love and death. Willard Carroll writes just like he directs: for immediate impact only, without regard to the characters he's spotlighting in a scene or to what follows dramatically thereafter. He panders to an audience's base emotions, which sometimes leaves his follow-through seeming empty or halfhearted. After losing her son to AIDS, grieving Ellen Burstyn is invited to a neighbor's celebration, where she is greeted warmly and then forgotten about. Dennis Quaid improvises a phony life story to an all-seeing, all-knowing drag queen, who calls Quaid out on his lie and then disappears. Carroll isn't interested in his smartest creations--he's mainly after warm hugs and kisses (which we are flooded with near the end). Some may see the writer-director's proverbial third-act ribbon-wrapping as clever and uncanny, but nothing is really accomplished by crisscrossing the paths of these people...it's simply a writer's folly. Aside from the touching Burstyn story, it doesn't wash. ** from ****

M.Borhan Shakaralizadeh This was the last film I Watched from angelina jolie's films and I watched it in December 31 of 2006 Its a bit late to watch this movie but this was the movie that changed my point of view from angelina jolie and I think that angelina has performed her best act in this film.But its been a little crowded film which reduces the time for actors to perform their best .but it still worth watching and the dialogues are very strong .and recommended for couples . the story lacks excitement but it really mean what is said and romantic .I personally enjoyed the conversation between JOAN and KEENAN.I think the KEENAN character was established very proper
