Editorial Review:
A fatal bus accident ties the souls of four strangers to Thomas Reilly, who's born at the exact time of the crash. Once Thomas is grown up, the four learn they each have one chance to resolve the unfinished business in their lives. To do this, they need to temporarily take over his body and Thomas will not cooperate.
Description of Heart and Souls:
Robert Downey Jr. has never been more charming than in this comedy about a yuppie who is revisited in adulthood by the spirits of four people who had been his friends as a child. The ghosts (Kyra Sedgwick, Charles Grodin, Alfre Woodard, Tom Sizemore) all have unfinished business in this world before they can move on to the next, and Downey's character agrees to let them inhabit his body while they sort it all out. The appealing cast alone strongly recommends this movie, but Downey's remarkable facility for physical comedy--manifesting the personalities of his supernatural pals as they possess him--is a riot. Elisabeth Shue makes the best of her part as the hero's girlfriend; Leaving Las Vegas was still ahead of her, but one can see her talent straining to get out here. The DVD release has a widescreen presentation, production notes, theatrical trailer, biographies of the cast, closed captioning, an optional French soundtrack and Spanish subtitles, and Dolby sound. --Tom Keogh

Deeply touching
2009-10-22 - Normally I ignore these type of movies thinking they are going to be sappy and cheesy. However, this incredible movie touched me deeply. The entire cast performance is heart warming and I truly recommended.
Chick flick 
2009-10-21 - It is an ok movie for me. My wife and my sister in law loved it. So i figure it must be a chick flick...
Great Movie Heart & Souls
2009-08-12 - This movie is timeless. I am a big fan of Robert Downey Jr and he is terrific in this film. This is the only movie I have ever seen where I laughed and cried at the same time. The whole story has so many valuable messages and bits of wisdom. You have to be open to the idea of spiritual forces guiding the humans on Earth. Very well done!
Heart and Souls is the best
2009-06-13 - Absolutely wonderful movie. Robert Downey Jr. is amazing, as is the entire cast. Wonderful, tender story. Can watch this over and over again.
