Sean P. Means The Movie Cricket 07/31/2021
3/4
There are several unforced moments of humor, and most of them ... capitalize on [Lisa Valentine] Clark's sharp comedic skills and [Clare] Niederpruem's bubbly charm. Go to Full Review Rachel Wagner rachelsreviews.net 07/24/2021
4/10
The problem with a movie like this is if the chemistry is off and the jokes aren't working the whole thing feels very self-absorbed and tiresome quickly Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Donna 08/08/2021 Light hearted movie. Enjoyable. See more Jonelle 08/07/2021 This movie was funny, heartwarming, engaging and an excellent story. We absolutely loved it! See more Rihannna H @RT07733770 Aug 22 I watched it for the first time cuz the YouTubers shot of the Yeagers were extras in it, but the story was pretty good, but at the end I was like HUH WHAT WAS THE WHOLE POINT OF THE MOVIE? No spoilers, but I just thought the point of the movie was finding the right guy and true love and stuff, not.. that. See more Demetris A @RT47166951 07/31/2023 I luv it. Movie is not over yet but it should be renamed: "A dozen ways to mess up a wedding ".! See more 03/03/2022 Hilarious. But there are a lot of inside jokes. See more 07/24/2021 Fantastic film with charm and humor in just the right spots. This movie skews LDS but it has an empowering message of finding out who you are and what you want in life and being brave enough to go get it. See more Read all reviews
