I'm going to see this in a pre-screening on Thursday. I'll let you all know how it is! Looks like it'll be pretty good to me.

**fluff** · 10-22-2003, 08:33 AM

Oh yes, please do let us know what you think.

I sense this being a bit of a tear-jerker for me, but then I am pretty soppy when it comes to this sort of thing.

Radio was such a great movie! I absolutely loved it!

Yes, it was a tear-jerker. I cried three times, I think.

Oh, everyone should really go see it!

I can't say too much about it yet because I'm still thinking about it but I'll write more when I come to it!

All right, I absolutely loved this movie!! It had about everything going for it...comedy, great acting, great story! (It was a lot better than "Remember the Titans;" they looked similar with the football aspect.) Fluff, you should probably take along some tissues for this one...it's a bit of a tearjeaker.

I'd recommend this one to everybody!

Even from the previews I could tell I would shed a few tears (ok, a lot of tears) at this one.

Thanks for confirming that Mantenna.
I'll be sure to have a couple of boxes of Kleenex at hand

Well I went to see it and loved it.
What a great movie.
Yep, as predicted there were quite a few tears shed.

Is the movie only going to draw tears to whoever goes see it? Does it have any humor in it or action, or is it just a movie I'd rent and sitdown with a girl and watch?

Resurrecting this old thread to say I watched this yesterday, and it was very good.
