Reviews

RyothChatty ridiculous rating
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Michelle Ridley The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
