    Amazon.com essential video
    Francis Ford Coppola's passable 1986 comedy stars Kathleen Turner as an unhappy, middle-aged woman who goes back in time to her high school years and meets her future husband (Nicolas Cage) all over again. A lightweight entry from Coppola (The Godfather, Apocalypse Now), the film has some clever, backward-looking jokes (Turner's character laughs incredulously when someone turns up with a brand-new Edsel); and the lead actress does bring intelligence and searching emotions to her role. Cage (Coppola's nephew), who specialized in these dumb-guy roles back then (see Raising Arizona), is in sharp, raw form. Worth a visit, but don't expect to be bowled over this time by the legendary director. The DVD release has optional full-screen and widescreen presentations, theatrical trailer, optional Spanish soundtrack and optional Spanish and French subtitles. --Tom Keogh

    4 out of 5 stars Great Dialogue   December 22, 2009
    Elizabeth Bean (Atlanta, Georgia USA)
    There are many things I like about this movie and all those reasons have been said before here. It's so hard to find scripts today with even average mature adult dialogue out of the US industry. Whenever I watch it it's always a treat to hear some great moments of dialogue that say so much with so few words and get you thinking if I was in there position revisiting my past...wouldn't that be interesting?

    Some people don't care for Nicolas' performance, but again, he has some excellent dialogue with Peggy. What a great script sharing thoughts of mature people but in a more light hearted way instead of reality TV conflicts.

    Kathleen does give a great performance but so do others. Barbara Harris, Joan Allen (where I first took notice of this excellent actress), Maureen O'Sullivan and then look for young Jim Carrey (not overplayed, overly comical, perfectly cast) and others.

    I would love to go back for a short visit my parents and grandparents and face what would I say to them knowing what I know now. This movie did that well without making it overly comical when say Marty goes back and visits his parents in Back to the Future. That's not to criticize Back to the Future, different kind of movie and I loved those scenes. Peggy Sue Got Married is a warmer fuzzier approach to what could be sci-fi plot, time travel no less. It really let's us know that we do change as we age, and sometimes that change results in a life that is incoherent with the past, especially the relationships we started with innocence and love, and precious honesty. How and why do we let go of that? When is right? When is a detriment? That's what Peggy comes to face, and perhaps she will find herself healed and renewed.



    5 out of 5 stars Peggy Sue Got Married   September 27, 2009
    Jean M. Pantaleo (California)
    This is a GREAT movie that the whole family can watch and enjoy. It is an older movie, so it actually has a real vocabulary, INSTEAD of a bunch of foul language! Anyone who grew up in the 50's,60's will find it especially endearing. Seeing all the old cars, the way people lived back then, etc...There are a few great lessons of life in this Movie.


    4 out of 5 stars A blast from the past!   September 27, 2009
    J. P. Warrant (United States)
    1 out of 1 found this review helpful

    I adore this movie, flaws and all. Yes, there are errors in the plot sequence and the filming. Yes, there are obvious cheesy characteristics that don't seem to belong in a Coppola film; however, this is an endearing film that I have watched many, many times. It never gets old for me.

    The retro styling of this film is just part of the draw. I also love the undertones of the film's theme: what if? I think most people look back at all of our stupid adolescent mistakes and wonder what would happen if we could go back and relive it. Peggy Sue gets the chance, and finds that the choices that she originally made were not necessarily bad ones. She and Charlie were drawn each other as teenagers, and even when she relives her high school years, she finds that the same is true. She knows that he's flawed, and she also knows what the future will hold for them, but she couldn't deny that at that point in time, they were drawn toward each other for a reason.

    Do things happen for a reason? If Charlie would have sung a Beatles song, would it have been as popular? Peggy Sue tried to alter some of the aspects of her life, but she also seemed to find that she was powerless to alter the major parts. She could chase the "hip thinking" poet, but could she truly be happy with him? Could she walk away from Charlie and find happiness with someone else, thus altering what she knew to be her future?

    The plot is a bit hokey, but it does get you thinking. If you did get a chance, would it really be all that different? On one hand, you want to say yes, while on the other hand, we all know that time distorts our perception of things. Would we really do it all differently if given the chance? Perhaps not. It maybe for this question alone that you'd want to watch this film with good friends and ponder that question.



    5 out of 5 stars Wonderfully moving comedy   June 6, 2009
    Robert J. Crawford (Balmette Talloires, France)
    2 out of 2 found this review helpful

    Normally I tend to avoid comedies, preferring psychological dramas or action films. So when my partner dragged me to this, I was surprised and delighted as its depth and ironies and multi-layered story.

    It starts off in a mid-life crisis: mom is separated and struggling, has a caring child, and wonders if her whole life has been a mistake at her 25th reunion. Suddenly, she finds herself back in time, right at the moment that she made her most important choices.

    When she realizes that she may actually be back in time, she injects a kind of nostalgic sarcasm into everything unlike any comedy I have ever seen. It is funny, moving, and deep, quite an amazing combination. You never know if it was just a dream, but suspect it was not.

    The acting is absolutely wonderful, too. This may be K Turner's best role: she is at turns beautiful, awkward, sexy, mean, caring, ironic, and loving. And it is all believable. This was also the first film I saw Nicolas Cage in, and he is an amazingly good adolescent of the late 50s. Sophia Coppola is also wonderful.

    I was scared I might be disappointed seeing this nearly 20 years after I first saw it, but it moved me just as deeply. This is one of the best comedies I have ever seen, worthy of a talent like Coppola's.



    4 out of 5 stars Makes You Think, "What If?"   April 3, 2009
    Craig Connell (Lockport, NY USA)
    1 out of 1 found this review helpful


    I can't remember anybody who didn't like this movie when it came out just over 20 years ago. It was very popular, and justifiably so. It had a lot of charm to it and romance, comedy and time-travel seem to be a good mixture.

    Also, it had an intriguing premise and made us think about it. If you could go back in time, knowing what you know now, would you do it and what would you do? I'm not talking short periods like in "Groundhog Day" (which was done seven years after this film) but if you could do it ALL over, from a certain point, like high school. Anyway, it's fun to think about.

    Nicholas Cage and Kathleen Turner were fun to watch. If you view this film today, be prepared to be shocked how young Cage - and Jim Carrey - look in here. Turner isn't so shocking only because today we don't see her in films regularly as we do those two guys. In fact, Turner was a big star in the '80s and most people remember her looks from that period, beginning with "Body Heat" (1981). She is the star of this film, too.

    When I last watched this, in the late 1990s, I found it wasn't as good as I remembered, but it still has a lot of charm and sentiment to it. It helps to be fascinated by time travel, which I am.

    If you are a film buff, you'll be shocked at all the familiar faces in this movie, from veteran actors like John Carradine to a young Helen Hunt. Check out the names in this cast! If you haven't seen this film, you owe it to yourself. I'm not saying it's terrific, but it's definitely worth your while not just for the actors but the thought-provoking subject matter.
