One of the most powerful movies I have ever seen, 10 May 2005
10/10
Author: Ruddy Kallis from Cape Town, South Africa
The story is extremely well told and filmed. I suspect this movie was inspired by true events which explains it's powerful effect on the watcher. This is truly without doubt one of the best movies I have ever seen. Do yourself a favor and watch this movie. If you truly want to experience the full effect of this movie then watch it alone, without anyone having to interrupt you, you don't want to miss anything, trust me ;-) Sometimes the slightest look in one of the characters eyes tells a part of the story which is why I said you don't want to miss anything.

I don't know anymore how often I have to repeat it, but this movie is a must see for everyone. This is the kind of movie you enjoy every time you'll see it again. Jim Sheridan made (again!) a great movie. See it!
Welcome to America, 10/10
Author: leftyguns0002 from Woodbridge Twp NJ
This is the story of an Irish family who comes into the US via Canada and settles in a rundown New York City neighborhood ... i'm not going to give away the best scenes and dialogue. That my dear reader you will see for yourself when you view this masterpiece of a film. You must see it.
Warm, charming, and full of wonder 9/10

In America 10/10
`In America' is a deeply touching, emotional experience that seeks out the truth in family unit relationships, while still remaining a powerful, riveting drama all on its own.
`In America' is a beautiful, alternately heartwarming and heartbreaking film. It's small treat in the busy holiday season, but one I urge not to miss. ----- 10/10
Beautiful, 10/10
Author: meritt
I love this little film. I was pregnant at the time when I saw it with my husband who is from Ireland. We both enjoyed the film for it's romance, it's humanity, and qualities that were so earthy and yet somehow ethereal. It was both beautiful and moving--one of those rare finds that illuminates, truth, beauty, and the honesty that art can evoke. Art--especially the theater and cinema has the power to inspire and can be so powerful. This film is living proof of that. The film has an integrity and a quality of strength that few films ever capture. It is my dream to both create and perform in little films like this. I want to inspire and create something that makes a spiritual leap--something that lasts and endures for all time because of its quality of a diamond in the rough. If you want to see something a bit unusual, though provoking, emotional, and rare--see this film.
A Memorable Film,

Amazing. Warm. Funny. Real., 3 January 2004
10-10
Author: Ed-90 from Vermont
This is a masterpiece of capturing human feeling on film. Above all it is real--the joy and the pain people in loving families feel for each other, plus the burden that this entails is wonderfully woven in this film. Having been through something very similar to what this family experienced made me hang on every word, every look, every tear. Go see it. In America is beautiful, and so, so very powerful.
