Larry Crowne
Academy Award winners Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts come together for a romantic and optimistic comedy about how it's never too late to reinvent yourself. When he suddenly finds himself without his long-standing blue-collar job, Larry Crowne (Hanks) enrolls at his local college to start over. There, he becomes part of an eclectic community of students and develops a crush on his teacher (Roberts). Now this simple guy will discover that when you think everything worth having has passed you by, you just might find your reason to live.

i kept waiting for this film to pick up. an interesting premise but no real story development. disappointing even if you are fond of these good actors. a real light weight movie. i was interested to see a film directed by tom hanks but was let down.

I was hesitant to watch Larry Crowne. I'm embarassed to admit it, but I actually kind of believed the critics. Which was a huge surprise for me as these 2 are my favourites!
But I gotta say, I enjoyed this one. So, please do yourself a favour, stop reading the reviews and take a chanceAn Okay Movie - bbryon1
Until he was downsized, affable, amiable Larry Crowne (Tom Hanks) was a superstar team leader at the big-box company where he's worked since his time in the Navy. Underwater on his mortgage and unclear on what to do with his suddenly free days, Larry heads to his local college to start over. There he becomes part of a colorful community of outcasts, also-rans and the overlooked all trying to find a better future for themselves...often moving around town in a herd of scooters.
