Carla Renata The Curvy Film Critic Yes, this film has its melodramatic, serialized moments, but the final scene  is a definite tear jerker and  reminder every family may have their differences, secrets and dramatic moments but love always prevails in the end.

Films like these don't come to theaters because they're TOO REAL!! This is a movie about life; life in all it's beauty and it's ugly. This movie is about family; family and all their ups and downs.
