Product description
RAISING HELEN: Sexy Kate Hudson is Helen Harris, a glamorous big-city fashion executive whose life of late nights and bright lights is turned upside down when she's unexpectedly named guardian of her sister's three troublesome kids! A fun-filled movie treat featuring Joan Cusack, John Corbett and Helen Mirren, the story of Helen's uneasy transition from super-cool aunt to stressed-out super mom is a delightfully entertaining adventure overflowing with warmth, romance and laughter! SWEET HOME ALABAMA: In this delightful romantic comedy, Reese Witherspoon stars as sophisticated Melanie Carmichael, a rising New York designer who suddenly finds herself engaged to the city's most eligible bachelor. But this is no fairy tale romance for Melanie. She has a secret past that includes Jake (Josh Lucas), the backwoods husband she married in high school, who refuses to divorce her. Determined to end their marriage and sever all ties with her past once and for all, Melanie returns to Alabama. But home starts to tug at her heartstrings, and what she thought she wanted may not be what she wants after all.

The story that follows is Helen's life being turned upside down as she's left to deal with a situation that she has absolutely no experience of and appears to be making an absolute pigs ear of. The reason I titled this review as 'Rings a bell?' is due to the fact that this seems like a modernised version of the Goldie Hawn film 'Overboard.' I thought this and then discovered that the same guy directed both of the films. Despite this, Raising Helen is an above average romantic comedy but don't expect ANY man to enjoy this as it is a ginormous chick flick. John Corbett is extremely likeable as the love interest and that's the main thing going for this film. Not just John Corbett but the whole cast of characters is pretty strong. The stand-out performance is from Joan Cusack who despite being the supporting actress outshines Kate Hudson by a mile.
The film is very much worth watching and it is superior to a lot of romantic comedies especially of modern times.
The extras include a Blooper Reel, a music video, deleted scenes and an audio commentary. Skip the audio commentary. It was about as interesting as watching paint dry.
