Excellent romance..... - Rating: 4/5
It's a pity that movies like these are not getting better treatment by the distributors. Case in fact, are the problems encountered by those people who first bought this dvd. But surprise, surprise!, same thing happened here in Australia when the movie was first shown on FOXTel cable last year.
The distributors or whoever did the ad/guide layout didn't even bother to mention the names of the two lead stars, namely Jaclyn Smith and Tim Matheson. Instead, they used the names of those two unknown supporting actors (!?). If you don't know anything about the film, you'll definetely missed it.
Anyway, I really like this film. It's so romantic, and so sweet and the performance are absolutely fabulous. Smith and Matheson are so beautiful together. They should actually make more romantic movies. The film is so affectionate plus the scenery --the beautiful outback of Canada and the fish (!) of course!
I'm just wondering why they changed the original title FISHING WITH JOHN? That suits better, I guess.
And my golly, Jaclyn Smith, did she really found the fountain of youth? She's absolutely gorgeous and so sexy....
Problem Fixed, Excellent Movie! - Rating: 5/5
This movie is so good! It is a fantastic love story, and Jaclyn Smith's performance is superb! I would highly recommend this movie. Especially those of you who love to watch romantic movies! AND you can't beat the price!!!!
Navigating The Heart - Rating: 4/5
THEY HAVE CORRECTED THE PROBLEM MENTIONED IN THE OTHER REVIEWS. I too got the movie labeled Navigating The Heart but it was actually Natural Enemy (twice). Amazon was great about replacing and refunding and they notified the distributor about the problem. I then waited about a week and ordered it again because I had seen it on TV and liked it. I finally got the RIGHT DVD. I love this movie and got interested in the author of "Fishing With John", whose life this movie was based on, and ordered the book. Of course the movie was changed, as they always are, but both the the book and the movie are very good in my opinion and I would recomend it to anyone that likes romance stories.
Shame about the mix up. - Rating: 1/5
I had exactly the same problem, and I would like to re-iterate what you said about Amazon. I was refunded the total amount for the DVD and postage very quickly, and I didn't even have to send the DVD back. It's a real shame there is a problem because I've never seen the movie and was really looking forward to watching it.
Do not order this DVD - Rating: 1/5
First let me say that Amazon Customer Service was GREAT when dealing with this problem. With that said there is something seriously wrong with this DVD. I loved this movie when I saw it on TV so when I saw it for sale on Amazon.Com I immediately ordered it. However when I received the DVD the cover and the picture on the DVD said Navigating the Heart but when I popped the DVD into my DVD player the movie Natural Enemy started playing. I then called Amazon and they sent me two replacements with the same problem. I called Amazon again and they totally refunded all costs. I even ordered this movie from another website with the same results which leads me to believe this is a problem at the studio level because of the matching results. Also Navigating the Heart and Natural Enemy were both re-released on the same day from the same studio Uvmd/Trinity. So I called the studio Uvmd/Trinity and described the problem and they seemed totally unaware of any problems. I really don't think that's a good sign.
