I absolutely LOVED this movie. I can't remember liking a movie so much that I purchased it. I could watch this over and over. I read the book and loved it as well. It was real, it was honest, it was funny, it was sad, it made me reflective. The acting was superb and if it doesn't take home a boat load of awards, then those making the award decisions need to get a life.

I'd give this a 10/5 if I could. The movie was great. Great acting and a great story. I LOVED the book. For those of you who have yet to read it, pick up a copy, borrow a copy or download a copy, its a worthwhile read. I didn't want to put it down and I didn't want the book to end. I'm hoping that all the Academy Awards its in, they win!

I really enjoyed the movie and thought the acting was brilliant. However, I did find it a little off-putting that the only Black person who was not a good guy was never seen on camera.

This movie was a great depiction of the way it was in the south. I thought it was well played and true to form. The actors did a great job executing the performances and I don't think you could have picked a better cast. There are many lessons to be learned in this movie and Karma is one of them.

I read the book before I saw the movie and I am glad I did. Sometimes reading the book beforehand can kind of leave a sour taste in your mouth after you watch the film because as we all know, books have to be altered for a screenplay. I was pleased to see the director followed along with the story in the book and didn't add any outlandish scenes for the sake of drama in the movie. In saying that, the book and the movie jive with one another. Overall, the movie was a hit! I went to the movie theaters and saw this with a number of my girlfriends and we all loved it. To see such a sensitive topic portrayed in screen so graciously with a bump of humor here and there was fabulous. I loved seeing the characters I grew to enjoy on paper, come to life on screen, with such heart and power by the actresses and actors who played them. The film teaches a valuable lesson to all those who care to watch it and creates a strong reminder of what life was like for the many women and men who lived in the south. This is without a doubt a movie I would recommend to anyone and everyone who is looking to watch a movie that has heart and above all some substance. Great flick! A must see if you have not done so yet!

I absolutely loved this movie & so glad to see it nominated it so many catagories. I'm really hoping it wins it all. I feel this is a must see movie because the acting is tremendous. The movie is eye opening, it's touching & funny. I definitely will watch this movie over and over.

I loved the way the story is told without showing tons of violence. It shows the quiet strength of the women who lived through this time and the courage they had to make it in life. Well done!!!

This movie was so well done. Very touching and certainly gets you thinking! It was cute and made me laugh! Very good acting! A great feel-good movie I highly recommend to others!

I loved this movie!!! Me and my husband watched it together and we really enjoyed it. I am surprised that it was not nominated for an Ocsar! The movie had an amazing cast and the story told was excellent. I hope that they reconsider and nominate it.

I can't say enough good things about the movie. The cast was amazing with equally amazing writing. My husband watched it with me and was surprised how much he liked it. Especially because it was a "chick flick".

I really enjoyed this movie. The actors really protrayed the people they were representing. It was a great insite into how "the help" felt and acted during the time period

My favorite is The Help. I read the book and saw the movie- highly recommend!

The Help, hands down!!

GREAT movie!!! The acting was really good.

I loved this movie. I read the book first and fell in love with Skeeter and Abileen. Growing up in the South made it easy to believe this story and understand the trials and tribulations surrounding this era.
