Summary: Novalee Nation is a pregnant 17-year-old from Tennessee heading to California with her boyfriend Willie Jack, but is abandoned by him at a Wal-Mart store in Sequoyah, Oklahoma. Novalee has no job, no skills and only $5.55 in her pocket, so she secretly lives in the Wal-Mart until her daughter Americus is born six weeks later. Novalee decides to raise her daughter and rebuild her life in Sequoyah, with the help of eccentric but kind strangers. Based on the best-selling novel by Billie Letts. (imdb)

All the situations are cliche, trite, and predictable. All the dialog is stupid, poorly delivered, and ditzy. The story-line is irrelevant and really drawn out. It's like a film a bunch of cheerleaders would have written, directed, and stared.

A movie about poor decisions, both by the characters and the actors involved. Painfully contrived and bad.

Caught this thing on TV, late at night, a few years ago and it stuck with me. Considering it's very unpretentious, I found it to be quite enjoyable. Then again I do love Natalie Portman, so I might be a bit lenient here.

I saw it on a plane once, and wish I'd brought my parachute so I could walk out. These have to be the worst character names I've ever heard. Novalee Nation? Willie Jack? Lexie Coop? Forney Hall? Sister Husband???? I'm actually crying from laughter, and I haven't even mentioned the Wal-Mart baby.

Right. As if "Wall-Mart Baby" wouldn't have been a better title. The winner here is Ashley, who looks great in white trash & is a kick to boot. The loser is, well, the empty headed script which continues to follow the x-boyfriend when we could really care less about getting even, & Natalie who is rather uninteresting.

Cute movie, developed from the book with the same title. In High School I watched the movie instead of the book. Entertaining movie, Portman carries the movie. If you're a fan of hers you can make it through the movie, it's no Closer though

This movie is so bad it hurts. The character names are ridiculous, the acting is terrible and my god is it dumb. Most of the dialog is totally unbelievable especially when Ashley Judd says to Natalie Portman "Honey, look at us, we can't have the pick of the litter." Yeah, it's really believable when one incredibly hot chick says to another that they can't have any good guys. Nice job, Hollywood.
