Editorial Reviews

Product Description Brad(Tim allen) and Caroline Sexton(Kirstie Alley) were incredibly rich and incredibly miserable. Until something unbelievable happened... their accountant robbed them dry. Now they're on the run from the IRS and hiding out in the one place no one will ever look for them... Amish country. While their lawyer sorts things out in New York, they've got to do their best to blend in and are failing miserably! Hard work may prove to be more difficult than hard time as the Sextons are learning how to milk cows, plow filds and fall in love all over again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adventures in Amish Land, March 6, 2002

This review is from: For Richer Or Poorer [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This film is all that it promises. Tim Allen's ultra rich character finds himself in trouble with the IRS after his swindling accountant (Seinfeld's Wayne Knight) embezzles millions from his company. Allen and wife Kirstie Alley find themselves on the run. They end up stranded together in an Amish town. To hide, the two pretend to be Amish. This leads to many funny situations. They learn some lessons from the Amish and mend their rocky marriage. This movie was very funny and much better than I thought it would be.

This review is from: For Richer or Poorer (DVD)

What would it be like if you landed in an old order Amish society? In this movie two materialistic New Yorkers have to hide out in an Amish society. They learn how to work, and they also learn about the what is really important in life. It's a really funny movie.

This review is from: For Richer or Poorer - DTS (DVD)

Initially, I thought the movie was good, but not spectacular. The more I see it, the more I realize how true most of its sentiments are. It shows us what is really important in life, and it is not the new Jaguar in the driveway. I like the "outtakes" and "deletions" during the credits, as well as the follow-up with them at the same pond that started their time in "hiding." My wife and I and our 5-year-old son now love this movie.
