Meryl Streep at her best, yet again.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As a professional musician already knowing the history behind Florence Foster Jenkins, I looked forward to seeing this movie. I have an original copy of the recording she cut for her 'Verdi Club,' which I inherited from a vocal professor. That said, I was not disappointed with the overall direction of the film. I was glad to see that her life was portrayed in a dignified way, drawing interest from those who know nothing of her legacy. (Even a history of bad performance can be construed as 'legacy.') I HIGHLY recommend this movie. Simon Helberg steals the show - in every way.

Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a wonderful movie that is based upon truth. Meryl Steep and Hugh Grant do I really have to say anything more? They are both great actors and the movie is wonderful. It is full of heart, soul, and a lot of song! Hope that you enjoy it.

Meryl plays the worst singer to take the stage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Meryl Streep plays Florence Foster Jenkins ,a weathy socialite who loved to sing and loved Opera .She had great passion but the talent she possessed did not match.She played Carnegie Hall to a SRO crowd despite her lack of vocal prowess. It was great fun and a little sad.Meryl is fantastic and Simon Hellberg from Bing Bang Theory steals the show.

Meryl Streep Does it Again!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Meryl Streep is so good, its scary. She can do anything. Intense drama, side-splitting comedy, musicals. By far the best actress of all time. In this role she plays the part perfectly. A really funny movie with some very tender scenes. I got this Bluray for $9.99. A price I could not pass up, and I am glad I didnt. This movie will entertain you like few others.

Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant - Different but Fun
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant do a fine job in portraying Ms. Jenkins. The movie is about a 7.5 out of 10 as far as I am concerned. I am glad that the Oscar went else where even though it was a challenging roll for Meryl. Big Bang fans will appreciate the character portrayed by Simon Helberg - Howard Wolowitz - he was superb.

True, but almost unbelievable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very entertaining story of a wealthy lady who LOVED music (especially opera) & enjoyed performing. Fantastic performances by Meryl Streep & a great supporting cast. There is a secret element that makes this story poignant, in addition to being hysterically funny.

Unusual, Heartwarming. Based on true story
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unusual. Its heartwarming to realize there are people out there who are so much in love. And to what lengths they will go to keep/preserve their loved ones dignity, protect & make the one they love feel special (without breaking the law or hurting other people).

Meryl Streep shines!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A film based on a true story about an untalented socialite who is semi delusional regarding her talent and her loving loyal husband who is equally delusional supporting her every whim.Hilarious and Streep shines in her usual best acting turn.
