Reviews
FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
Nicolas Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Noelle The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.
NJS Let me start by saying I love everything Cameron Mathison!!! He is so genuine and likable it is hard not to enjoy his movies! However, I felt Andie MacDowell was a bit pompous and strict in this movie. No surprise since she seems to play that character in many of her films. She looked a lot older compared to Mathison, which she is. Even so, Mathison lit up this movie with his charm. No, I have not read the books but I will now. Maybe it is better that I watched this first vs. reading the book. Cynicism would have taken over if I had.
terisechrist The book was wonderful, full of quirky characters including Father Tim and Cynthia. I saw nothing of the book's characters in the movie, that I could even remotely identify the way Jan Karon magically painted them in her book.
msmith-11891 No wonder Jan Karon did not want her books to be made into movies. She didn't want any tampering with the existing characters and especially not the additions of new ones. What she was concerned about has come true. The beloved stories and characters have been distorted when set to film.
mildredhouser I could not even finish the first half hour. . . . It was just a "boy meets Andie" movie that we've seen before in Cedar Cove. Andie, Andie, Andie, you should have let Ms. Karon have more say. She created multi-dimensional, vulnerable, redemptive characters. Y'all didn't even come close. Greatly disappointed.
