| This is a film which knows that good films are meant to move us, but doesn't cynically tug on our heartstrings. |
| In fact this is a very romantic comic, and none of it's overplayed or plucks the heartstrings unnecessarily. |
| This plodding, wandering, disconnected story pulls out every melodramatic stop to tug at your heartstrings. |
| The emotions always seems real and spontaneous rather than cunningly manipulated to pull out the heartstrings. |
| Why can't a boy tug at America's heartstrings without facing petty locker-room humiliation from the viewing public? |
| It reached deep inside, plucking at the heartstrings, moving everyone's souls. |
