Go rent it out

You can Count on Me" is a very warm tale of an estranged brother and sister who have grown apart but reunite after a long absence. Laura Linney gives a powerful and moving performance as a single mother, living in a small town, who has yet to figure out what to do with her life, yearns excitement but is constrained by the shackles of her mundane work and motherhood. When her troubled brother comes back on the scene, she clings to him for the emotional support she needs as they rekindle their old

Well worth seeing
Brian from Dublin, 13 Nov 2007
Excellent refreshing film. Laura Linney and Mark Ruffalo play roles that seem made for them. Touching analysis of the meaning of family and the contrast/marriage between spirit and spirituality. Avoids potential cliches and never lapses into a didactic tone.

Families are hell !
Peter from Cork, 09 Feb 2010
This film is a family drama, and a pretty good one. If you want to see and identify with the problems in the relationship you will . if you don't want to identify you'll be bored witless. Theres so much going on here and its what happens in some families. There hell !

Boring enough
Peter from Mayo, 24 May 2008
This film just seemed to go on and on relatively aimlessly and not really going anywhere much in the process, so much so that you eventually lose any empathy for either of the main characters
