Josh Bell Las Vegas Weekly A competent but self-righteous film that offers little insight into love or faith. Rated: 2/5 Sep 6, 2003 Full Review Phil Villarreal Arizona Daily Star If religious films aren't your bailiwick, stay away. Otherwise, this could be a passable date film. Rated: 2/4 Apr 10, 2003 Full Review Joe Baltake Sacramento Bee The film is old-fashioned, occasionally charming and as subtle as boldface. Rated: 2/4 Jan 24, 2003 Full Review David Chute L.A. Weekly The movie is too amateurishly square to make the most of its own ironic implications. Jan 23, 2003 Full Review Steve Rhodes Internet Reviews 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. Rated: 2.5/4 Jan 12, 2003 Full Review Eric D. Snider EricDSnider.com It is a likable story, told with competence. Rated: B- Nov 16, 2002 Full Review Read all reviews

Joe L Only a mormon could love this pathetic movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I honestly loved this film. Be prepared for a ferris wheel of emotions. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member A really sad movie but totally recommend it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member amazing!! if you love a great Sunday flick..this is it!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Such a good story!! a tear jerker every time!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
