Synopsis
A young and devoted morning television producer is hired as an executive producer on a long-running morning show at a once-prominent but currently failing station in New York City. Eager to keep the show on air, she recruits a former news journalist and anchor who disapproves of co-hosting a show that does not deal with real news stories.

Chicago Sun-Times
Comedies open every week. This is the kind I like best. It grows from human nature and is about how people do their jobs and live their lives. - 80
Movieline
Breezy and enjoyable. - 75
ReelViews
The film is at its best when it is at its most goofy, at times coming close to the laugh-aloud outrageousness of Will Ferrell's "Anchorman." - 75
Charlotte Observer
The acting is so exact and the timing so crisp that it delivers precisely the satisfaction you'd anticipate. - 75
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Mainstream moviemaking at its most proficient, with a zippy script, comfort-food casting and a breakout performance by a deserving star. - 75
Observer
Some of the on-camera bitchery between Mr. Ford and Ms. Keaton is laugh-out-loud witty. For the most part, Morning Glory is a delicious movie that will make you jump for joy. - 63
Rolling Stone
A tart, terrific comedy that gives Harrison Ford his best and funniest role in years. - 63
Chicago Tribune
If the romantic comedy Morning Glory clicks with audiences, the McAdams factor surely will be the reason why.
