Cybill Shepherd plays a pregnant woman whose husband is killed before their baby is born; once he gets to heaven, he begs for a chance to come back to her and his unborn child. The twist is that he returns in the form of Robert Downey Jr., boyfriend to Cybill's daughter (Mary Stuart Masterson). When the daughter brings him home from college, he gets his memory back--and starts coming on to her mom. Sounds like a Jerry Springer show--"Help! My dad has been reincarnated as my boyfriend!"--but this Emile Ardolino film actually has a passable amount of charm and wit, once it gets into gear. It gives you a sense of just how funny and charming Downey can be, given the right material. --Marshall Fine

 Nice romantic movie October 11, 2009
Ch (US)
I enjoyed this years ago; it's a sweet romance. Robert Downey Jr, Mary Stuart Masterson, Cybill Shepard and Ryan O'Neal give this romantic comedy a lot of charm.
One of my favorite movies October 6, 2009
Kathleen Klatt (California USA)
Chances Are is one of my all time favorite movies. Such a fun romantic comedy. The music in this movie is great too. The wedding scene at the end of the movie is so romantic and touching too with one of my favorite songs. A real feel good movie. Be sure to watch this if you're having a bad day.
Love this movie July 18, 2009
D. Warren
Definitely an 80s classic. Not the most well-known film out there, but it's absolutely great.
likeable movie March 30, 2009
J. Dykstra (Roswell, NM)
This is one of the rare romantic comedies that comes off making you feel good. In spite of all the potentially creepy or awkward scenes it actually ends up being cute and heartwarming. It's also one of those movies where little details are tied to later plot developments making the whole thing seem more tidy and well-developed. Of course you have to be open to a small suspension of disbelief to accept the reincarnation device and the idea that so many things hadn't changed in the 23 years between the death of Louie and the arrival of Alex, but these things are really minor. This one is definitely worth having in the collection.
 My daughter loved it March 23, 2009
Grave Digger
I bought this movie with hopes of my daughter liking it. She is a big time Robert Downey Jr. fan. She didn't like it, she LOVED it! The movie was received in great condition and works just fine. No problem what so ever with this seller or the product. Would buy from again!!!
