    Editorial Reviews

    Vince Vaughn stars in this drama about a single father trying to balance career ambitions against personal responsibilities. In A Cool Dry Place, Vaughn plays Russell, a lawyer in a small town in Kansas who has been raising his five-year-old son Calvin (Bobby Moat) on his own since his wife Kate (Monica Potter) left him without notice. After a year and a half as a single man, Russell is starting to rebuild his personal life and begins dating Beth (Joey Lauren Adams), a pretty veterinarian's assistant who has taken a shine to him. However, Russell's new relationship runs into rough waters when Kate returns, looking to re-establish her relationship with Calvin, and Russell is offered a high-paying job with a law firm in Dallas, TX. Director John N. Smith, best known for Dangerous Minds, shot the Kansas sequences on location in Ontario, Canada; Dallas, however, plays itself. Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

    January 29, 2006: I watched this movie on cable this past week and really liked the story line. I had no idea who Vince Vaugh was, but thought he did a great job portraying a caring father to a cute little boy. Those two made the film. The acting by both the father and the son was flawless and seemed to be how a little boy would act. The father had a lot of patience, but was sure ready to dump the kids at his father's home a few states over in order to pursue his own career. In true Hollywood fashion, he saw the error of his ways and stayed in Kansas with his young son..a happy ending.
