    A young doctor in DC (Michael J. Fox) wants to become a flashy, high-paid plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, but breaks down in a quaint town in South Carolina where he gets back-to-basics and learns that some things are more important than money.

    The plot of Doc Hollywood (1991) is reminiscent of Northern Exposure and was obviously ripped off by the animated Cars (2006). Its an agreeable Southern town drama with fun touches highlighted by likable Fox as the protagonist. Its like Mayberry R.F.D. with a lil edge.

    Its always a pleasure t...
