It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Don't be deceived by the rather low IMDb-rating: In it's genre (typical nineties small-town-story), this is absolutely a great movie. While the main storyline is entertaining enough (a rebellious teenage girl in search of her own identity), it is actually the portrayal of some other characters that make the movie so worthwhile. The rhythm of the movie is well-paced, the dialogs are rich and the plot line may seem predictable, but a very open-minded-written script ensures some surprises. If you like the genre then 'Welcome Home Roxy Carmichael', with its dash of romance, comedy, small-town-drama and general quirkiness, won't disappoint.

I Love this movie. I could watch it every single day for the rest of my life. It's one of those girlie movies when you can identify with every problem and person in the movie. Melissa Etheridge uses her Grammy award winning talent with this amazing song in the movie. I still sing parts of those songs at least once a week. I absolutely love this move love love love love this movie and i think you will too. I watched this movie years and years and years ago and I still talk about it way more that I should but anytime I mention the name people look at me and say that I totally made it up. People know me as the t.v. Queen because I literally have watched every mini series, every made for t.v. movie and don't let me talk about all the movies I used to watch on USA Up All Night when Gilbert Godffrey was the host. But if you are a avid movie watcher like myself this is a movie for the record books. Did I mention how Great this movie really is. I love this movie.

Thomas Wilson Brown as Gerald Howells made this movie. This under used actor lent a sweet sentiment to a good movie that was having trouble finding it's way. Go ahead, watch it again. But, this time watch Thomas Wilson Brown. It becomes a whole different movie.

Winona Ryder has a big collection of forgotten but first-rate movies, and this is no exception. The acting was really good, and the music on the soundtrack made it memorable. Well worth a look, and a second, and a third...
