Reviews
pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
