Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
tiffanygerstmeyr This was the worst movie I have ever seen. Everyone involved in its making should deeply reconsider their life choices as they chose to waste their time on something like this. I must now also reevaluate the time I spent watching this crap. Wow words can't even express my horror and repulsion at the lack of comedy and wit in this movie that is FAR worse than "Daybreak" aka the show they make fun of in the movie.
Nobody-27 Saw this without knowing much about it (except for above the line). Unlike many chick-flicks and romantic comedies that received praise when they should not, this one actually worked for me. It was not meant to be an earth-shattering experience, but as a dramedy, it worked - at least for me. Yes there were moments of overacting, and it seems that Ford is past his prime, and story peaks were a bit off, but snappy dialogue, good jokes and decent story make it all worthwhile. Even with its faults, I still recommend it. Rachel McAdams is absolutely wonderful here, even if her character needs a bit of massage, and so were most others. Again, there are many moments of brilliance and it is worth watching it just for that. You won't be sorry you saw it, unless your expectations are unrealistic.
bashfulbadger Rachel McAdams is atrocious, ruining this movie by overacting ditziness and scattiness to an absurd degree. She squeaks and squawks and flings her arms around like some kind of demented windmill. You find yourself mystified as to why Diane Keaton and Harrison Ford chose to dignify MORNING GLORY with their presence; and hoping against hope that Harrison's character would just shoot the babbling idiot of a protagonist.
Python Hyena Morning Glory (2010: Dir: Roger Mitchell / Cast: Rachel McAdams, Harrison Ford, Diane Keaton, Patrick Wilson, Jeff Goldblum: Comedic drama about ideas and expression. Rachel McAdams stars as a producer of a struggling morning talk show that she would like to elevate from the bottom point just as she is in her personal life. She lands this title after being fired from her previous job. Now she must prove herself and does so by hiring a difficult news anchor to replace a previous host alongside the remaining host. Directed by Roger Mitchell who previously had success with Notting Hill, and he is backed with terrific sets and a great cast. It plays off romance in the work place in a similar way Notting Hill applied romance to show business but within a civilian outsider. McAdams is on target trying to juggle the many job demands, combating personalities and romance. She comes from a downfall but turns it around and struggles greatly to do so. What is learned here is that despite the down time hard work can pay off with great results. Harrison Ford steals the film as the difficult veteran news anchor who must learn to be a team player. Diane Keaton plays the veteran host at odds with Ford. It is terrific to see these two veteran performers argue back and forth. Only Patrick Wilson is a weak link as a romantic prop. He seems to have no other function other than to appear periodically to take McAdams to lunch and figure out how to bed her. Wilson is beyond this sort of cardboard crap. Other than that this is an engaging film about the industry up long before we're out of bed. Score: 9 ½ / 10
