      I really enjoyed this movie. It had some serious situations in it, yet seemed not to take itself too seriously, all the while being funny and entertaining. The storyline was believable, the cast and characters credible. Definitely worth watching at least once.

      Surprisingly Spectacular! I'm not a huge fan of Jessica Biel but she did very well in this movie. I also thought the previews gave this movie completely away. But I was pleasantly surprised it didn't. Very well acted. Great Storyline and acting. Situations and scenes in the movie were real and heartfelt and not overdrawn. VERY WELL DONE MOVIE!!!
