Central to the story (set during World War II) is Homer (Tobey Maguire), a young man raised in a Maine orphanage, where the ether-sniffing Dr. Larch (Michael Caine) rules with benevolent grace while performing safe but illegal abortions. To expand his horizons, Homer follows a young couple (Charlize Theron, Paul Rudd) to do fieldwork on an apple farm, where his innocent eyes are opened to the good and evil of the world--and to the realization that not all rules are steadfast in all situations. By the time Homer returns to the orphanage, The Cider House Rules--which features one of Caine's finest performances--is memorable more for its many charming and insightful moments than for any lasting dramatic impact. Is Homer fated to come full circle in his kindhearted journey? It's left to the viewer to decide. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews of The Cider House Rules (Miramax Collector's Series)
Not Bad I have mixed feelings about this movie. It's not horrible, the themes and subject matter of the movie is highly controversial and might make some viewers uncomfortable depending upon their personal opinions on abortion. Somehow, though, this movie sensitively and affectively conveys the subject matter in a way that's watchable. Even though the acting was mediocre, I really liked Tobey Mcguire as the main character (i think he's such a cutie...). However, i felt that this movie was just way too long. It tends to drag along and barely picks up until it comes to the most emotional scenes, which I have to admit were a bit abject and hard to watch. But overall, the film is packed with emotion and is worth renting at least once.
makes you think..
there are few movies [with mainstream actors] that truly leave you thinking. i should rephrase -- there are few movies that leave you thinking & are enjoyable to watch. i thought that the cider house rules was exceptional. from the first scene, i was utterly and completely captivated. The filming was expertly done; if you like new england, you should watch this movie simply for the visuals. tobey maguire has always been one of my favorite actors, but i thought that his performance in this movie was stellar. It set him apart from other young Hollywood stars. The man honestly has talent! In fact, the whole cast was primo, right down to the children who were the orphans [watch for fuzzy & curly; both were heartbreakingly adorable]. Charlize Theron, who i have always thought was simply a mediocre actress, proved me completely wrong.

>There are many issues in this movie that could be scrutinized; you have to be willing to watch it with an open mind. Abortion is a huge controversy throughout the plot -- if yu're completely offended by it, then you probably won't enjoy this movie. however, i think that it was a moving film with an important message.
