  • Delightful!

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    I stumbled on this film by chance at the cinema when there was nothing else on that I fancied watching. I was most pleasantly surprised by this delightful film. The characters are are wonderful, and really draw you into their lives and feelings. Its funny and quirky, sad in places and heart-warming in others. A real American independant treat. Enjoy! And if you like this try 'Straight Story'.

    What a really nice film. After hunting around for big films I stumbled across this one. A bit quirky but in a good way.

    This is a mature version of a coming of age film, I call it 'coming of 2nd age film' genre. smart, funny, not in your face slapstick, not boring, but you have to be in a sunday summer afternoon mood to really enjoy this film, like a cup of tea that you miss once you've drunk it. There's no real film this can be compared to, also its about time we treated everyone equal without being condescending or felling sorry....... a real enjoyable film!!

  • Slow and dull

    Rated - 1.5 stars

    I found this film a bit slow and dull. It lacked action but if you're into romance and just want a relaxing film to pass the time then It's probably a film for you.

  • I didn't know what to expect...

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By a customer , 12 Apr 2013
    Loved it! Some genuinely funny moments but at the same time it was a heartfelt and moving story about three very different individuals. A great watch if you want more than just a shallow comedy or a predictable love story.

  • Very sweet film.

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By rcoldbreath (26 reviews) from London , 04 Mar 2013
    A nice film, quite subtle, pretty sweet, pretty mellow. Aside from anything else if you've never thought about how it must feel to go through life with something that makes you appear physically different to everyone else, this will probably change the way you view that / disability. The characters are really well written and well played. I came out of this film glad I'd taken the time to watch it, but not precisely able to identify why. It's like you've just spent summer in the States, and met some pretty cool people.
