It took a lot of cajoling to get Bob, a recently widowed architect, to go on a blind date at a quirky Irish-Italian eatery. Once there, he's smitten instantly not with his date but with the sharp-witted waitress. Everything seems to be going great until an unbelievable truth is revealed, one that could easily break both of their hearts for good.

Old-fashioned as all get-out, Return to Me is swathed in an unabashed feel-good tone.

fresh:
So innocent, so naive, so sweet and sincere, that you must leave your cynicism at the door or choose another movie.

fresh:
The film builds an implausible scenario into a credible and utterly charming romantic comedy.

fresh:
First-time director Bonnie Hunt has taken what could have been an incredibly sappy story and used her sense of comedic timing to fashion a date flick that even the guys might enjoy.
