I loved this movie. Ok, it's a sappy chic flick - but it's so good. A family comes to the United States seeking a better life and their story is retold in this great film, "In Amerca". Rotten Tomatoes gives it an 89% fresh rating. It definitely gets a high ranking in my book, but don't take my word for it, see "In America" for yourself. I'm not sure but I think having been to New York allowed the movie to bring back that overwhelming feeling that the Big Apple has on small town folk like myself. Oh and if you are at all like my mom you'll need about a box and a half of Kleenex, but I think you'll like the movie anyway.
