   Summary: The reason I went to Paris....
I love, love, love this movie. Julia is beautiful and Harrison does an amazing job, far from his usual role of treasure hunter. If this remake doesn't get you then the music will, it is a romantic shiny movie and I cry every time I watch it. Yes, I am a girlie girl. Then there's Sting, ahhhh, "In the Moonlight."

I heart this movie.

   Summary: second version
Wanted this copy which I keep with the older version of Sabrina played with Humpry Bogart and they are both extremely good like to compare both copies at times.

   Summary: A new Classic.
Unfortunately, I have not seen the classic version of this movie yet. In fact, I didn't even know it was a re-make.

It's an early 90's rags to riches, love story. Like Pretty Woman without the hooker part. I feel that Julia Ormond had terrific chemistry with Harrison Ford. It even made me have little flutters when I anticipated a kiss.

I love this movie!

   Summary: A fun movie
The basic story is that the Chauffeurs daughter Sabrina falls in love with playboy David Larrabee. She tries to kills herself and is sent to Paris. When she returns as a mature woman David suddenly takes an interest in her. This would be great but David is engaged to another woman and this other woman brings with her a very sweet business opportunity for the Larrabee Industries run by elder brother Linus. Linus not a man to let a business opportunity pass him by because of his brother's female distractions sets out to distract the object of David's recent affections. Of course things start to go wrong when Linus develops feelings for Sabrina...

While I prefer the original I still think this version is a great movie. My main problem with it is that the younger brother isn't really good looking enough. I can see him being a playboy but honestly if I can't imagine anyone in their right mind choosing that Greg Kinnear over Harrison Ford. Did you see that guy when he was younger? Indiana Jones? Han Solo? Also when you watch this movie again it feels more dated than the original. That having been said this is a great feel good movie.


 Rating 2   Written on March 27, 2007
   Summary: Not as nearly as good as the original
The problem with this movie is that the actors could not decide whether they were trying to be themselves or the old actors. Julia Ormond, especially, kept sort of, but not quite, acting like Audrey Hepburn. It didn't seem to be a case of her not being able to pull off the character; it just seemed like either she or the director could not decide whether they were doing something new or directly remaking the old version. It would have been better if they had completely cut ties with the past.

The movie also seemed to move quite slowly, and there was very little chemistry between Julia Ormond or either of her suitors. I love Harrison Ford, but Linus here just came off as a jerk, and Sabrina came off as too stupid to see how mean he was. The crucial love scene between them was rushed, and far too much time was spent showing how scheming he was.

If you liked the 1954 version of this movie, I would skip this one. I was disappointed.
