Fantastic Movie
How someone could give this a negative review is beyond me. It is a great story and was well acted.

Me thinks the rotten tomatoes people need to go back to their site where their self appointed movie critiquing expertise is welcomed. I generally never watch below a 5.0 as I trust this site but this 4.8 (which is beyond me as it should be in the 7 range) was poorly mis-rated. I was lucky enough to see someone’s post that said these people are crazy this is a great movie.

The movie is heart warming….it is a real story and is all around a great watch. You won’t be sorry for watching it. Enjoy.
