I Love Trouble

I used to watch this movie off and on many years ago but apparently on VHS because I couldn't find it on DVD. Of course, I don't even own a VCR anymore, so buying this on DVD online was a little more expensive than I would have originally wanted. I was even hesitant because of some of the negative reviews. I thought that my memory of the movie was off and that perhaps it wasn't as good as I remembered. After buying it and watching it, though, I'm very glad I got it again. I remembered everything pretty well, but I also liked Nick Nolte movies from this time frame. So, this one was a good one. I am also a Julia Roberts fan so even the moments where it might have felt like her acting was "blah" it was still good enough for me.The main reason I like it, though, is that the idea of news reporters actually digging into a story because there is something being hidden is a nice thought. I rarely see a news story these days that I feel like they have even made any effort. They sure don't follow up with anything locally so this movie is a nice difference. I realize there were complaints by some that there was too much going on and that the story didn't follow one thing, but that's kind of the way that movies go. There was the main story being chased by two reporters that were rivals and had an obvious attraction. The "love story" is kind of behind the scenes which is better in my opinion because it is really more of an action suspense movie anyway. The humor is OK but not horrible. It IS a 90's movie so you can't expect it to be as good as one from nowadays!Overall, it is entertaining so I will give it 5 stars. The DVD worked and wasn't actually too bad of quality. What more can you really expect from an older movie?

Ever since I was a kid, I've loved Julia Roberts films, especially this one (as well as "Conspiracy Theory," "Runaway Bride," "Erin Brockovich," and "Pretty Woman"). I enjoyed Nick Nolte and Julia's deal to be like the Hardy Boys teaming up with Nancy Drew to solve the mystery. The use of a wild goose chase is one you have to see to believe.I was happy to find this film and for such a reasonable price, though I had one fear: that it would be like my DVD copies of "Runaway Bride" and "Eight Legged Freaks"--MISSING MATERIAL FROM THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. I know there is the line on the back of the case that says it's presented in widescreen format and that the black bars are normal; however, I still have my VHS copies of these two films, and it's like the restoring company(or companies) decided to do the work to make it visually dynamic, but then took the lazy route and added the black bars over screen material instead of actually making it widescreen!I do hope that a company will someday restore these films to their full glory, but for now, at least the parts I can see look good. Thus the four star rating instead of five.

Good

Good movie

I remember he said she said, which this movie I am sure borrowed off of that idea, competitors in the news team, and trying to out scoop one another, this one leads to a killer trying to kill Nick Nolte and Julia Robert's characters, for going overboard and trying to get the story first, so they team up to survive. He said she said, was tasteless and full of junk john hughes style, and this one is way better than that one, even if Kevin Bacon and Elizabeth Perkins are two good actors, and it had one scene that is a memory in itself... She throws the coffee cup at his head. This one had more humor, action, love, and twists.

Interesting story line - pretty good. It's the typical Julia Roberts movie from the 90's

I ordered this movie knowing that I had not ever seen it Nick nolte and Julia Roberts are really great in this movie I would recommend it for the comedy action aspect.

The main actors are not favorites of mine so it takes something for me to give four stars. The story is as believable as a movie can be. Thr stunt people deserve a hand or thumb up. Photography is better than a great many movies you see today. Very important to me the audio id very good.If you are interested in personal opinions I will say this is not a movie I am going to sell, give away or throw away. It will be watched at least one more time.

Really good watch

Great Julia Robert's film - story a bit like an old Katherine Hepburn/Spencer Tracy film - very enjoyable.
