Review of New in Town

New in Town (2009)
7/10
Enjoyable, amusing with a theme that meant a lot to me
20 August 2017
This is a light romantic comedy with a deeper meaning. There's a certain amount of predictability and corn, but Renee Zellweger, always a pleasure, more than makes up for that.

The theme of the movie is a huge impersonal corporation about to downsize a Middle West factory. The movie brings out many of the conflicting moral values that are at the center of American politics today. Even more interesting, the movie has something to say about what we're going through--something valuable.

I enjoyed the movie and recommend it highly. It's light fare with thought-provoking ideas.
