I love this movie! 
2008-02-08
This is one of my favorite rainy day movies and it has been since I first saw it on TV years ago. I like George Strait's music anyway, and I like romance novels, so put those two things together into a movie, and I'm sold!
That said, this movie isn't for everyone. It's rather formulaic and the premise has been done over and over in the romance novel world - but that's because it works. Celebrity hiding out with the real people meets woman who doesn't know who he is and they fall in love. They have a falling out, but reunite at the end (that can't possibly be a spoiler). You've seen it before, but if you like this kind of story, this is a great example.
Romance at it's finest. 2008-01-19
I give this movie 5 stars! Geprge Strait is an very good actor and the story line has you cheering for Harley! The music is awesome. A chick flick supreme!

Amazon is 5 Stars All the Way! 2008-01-01
This is not really a review on this particular item...but with Amazon itself. I have been shopping for years with Amazon and never once have been disappointed. I get up to date emails about my orders...they are shipped out right away and received in less than a week and I have never had to return anything :) This particular item was a gift for my 15 year old daughter. I was not able to find it in stores so I went to Amazon...where you can always find what you need...and the price was perfect ( cheaper than in the stores)I ordered it with ease and got it in like 5 days. Amazon makes shopping easy!
Small Town Life USA!! 2007-11-20
I love this movie, I love movies about small town life.
I'm a country boy at heart, even if I live in the DFW Metroplex.
I'm also a fan of George Strait, I've listen to him since I was a
teenager.
Country & rock music is in the bloodline.
I rate this DVD a 9 from 1to10!!
Just good clean fun

This is just a nice family movie with a great sound track. Worth spending money on.
From a non country fans point of view. 2008-06-24
I don't like country, I like metal.
Why did I see this?
A friend dragged me kicking and screaming into it.
But I came out surprised and quite satisfied with the movie overall.
It's very well acted, well directed.
The acting is excellent.
I'm not going to comment on the music, it's not my genre.
But I would recommend this to even non country music fans.
It's got a good story going and some very fine moments.
Did I mention cowboys are good eye candy?
And there is no shortage of that in this movie.
And that's reason enough to watch it again.
Recommended!!!
Pure Country - A Pure Delight 2008-06-10
George Strait has been a headline country and western star for a long time now, and when he made this movie, he showed he was more than capable of holding his own in good company. What a shame this was his only film !
Colonel Tom Parker was a friend of Strait's manager and told him that George Strait had the same kind of charisma on film that the great Elvis Presley had,and that a movie career was his for the asking.
However, the long delays between takes, the endless sitting around on the set was not appealing to George and he was never keen to repeat the experience.
However, playing a singer who is sick and tired of the remoteness of his live performances, huge stadiums and lots of special effects, and no real contact with his audiences, was a role tailor made for an artist as good as George Strait.
His character Dusty, decides to escape the mindless existence he is currently living and walks away, hitches a ride and heads for anonimity.
It is while he is "on the run" that he meets a young woman rodeo rider, well played by Isabel Glasser who takes him home where he awakes with a cruel hangover to meet her family, including her father the late Rory Calhoun in one of his last roles.
The soundtrack of Pure Country was a best selling album for George Strait and stands on its own as a fine album. The song, I Cross My Heart sung at the end of the film became a favourite request at weddings, a beautiful love song indeed. Other great songs include Thoughts Of A Fool, The King Of Broken Hearts, Heartland, When Did You Stop Loving Me, and all are worthy of countless replays.
A good movie,great soundtrack, and George Strait - who could ask for more?
