Doc Hollywood Ratings & Reviews
- mikeist4July 10, 2025Introduced the wife to romcoms from my era. This one still holds up! Next on the list is “Can’t Buy Me Love”.
- Casper HørningMarch 24, 2025Fantastic, and a good comedy as well
- carmen.s29March 22, 2026Pretty good movie with a great cast and good storyline. I would watch this movie again.
- RichardNovember 9, 2025Saw it on TV. Pure comfort watch. Michael J. Fox in small town charm mode. This one’s a warm slice of early 90's romcom pie. Fox plays a hotshot plastic surgeon en route to Beverly Hills who crash lands literally in a sleepy Southern town. Sentenced to community service, he ends up trading fast cars for slow charm and surprise: it suits him. Julie Warner is radiant as Lou, the local who sees through his city boy swagger. The town’s full of quirky characters, from the matchmaking mayor to the mechanic with wisdom and wrenches. It’s got that Northern Exposure vibe fish out of water, but with heart.
