2/5

A competent but self-righteous film that offers little insight into love or faith.

If religious films aren't your bailiwick, stay away. Otherwise, this could be a passable date film.

The film is old-fashioned, occasionally charming and as subtle as boldface.

The movie is too amateurishly square to make the most of its own ironic implications.

Beers, who, when she's given the right lines, can charm the paint off the wall ... [but] the script goes wrong at several key junctures.

I love this movie. It's a favorite of my wife and I. To me, the mark of a great story is that it elicits a strong emotional reaction. This movie does it for me every time: laughter, tears, and love.

I honestly loved this film. Be prepared for a ferris wheel of emotions.
