I personally loved this movie. I loved the book and thought I'm a firm believer of book over movie this movie did a wonderful job of making me evaluate that view. The actors were great and the directing was phenomenal. I loved Andi and Dawson and thought their love story was beautiful. The family dynamics were real, raw, and very well done. It was so cool to see things in my own hometown and the scenes from Smith Lake were beautiful. All of the music was wonderfully chosen. It is the tiniest bit fast paced on parts that needed to be drawn out. Yet, way too slow on parts that needed to be faster. Regardless, a wonderful movie with the cutest dog: Toby!! This is a refreshing clean movie that is a definitely go see!!

To God be the Glory.

I love the fact that Karen Kingsbury will now be involved in producing some of her stories as films for the big screen. While women can probably relate more to this story than men, I found it to be a great escape. Despite the pain the lead experienced, he kept moving forward. Loved the scenes on the lake. It's simply refreshing to watch a movie where you don't have to worry about foul language or inappropriate behavior. The story's premise is a little different, but watching how the parents and Jake Allyn dealt with grief was interesting. True love hurts and can also bring joy for those lucky enough to find it twice. Overall, I'm glad I invested time and money for the view. I do hope Kingsbury will be able to produce others.

Yes, this is a mildly faith-based movie but it doesn't pound religion towards the viewer. It is clean, no bad language, no guns, no sex, all of which makes a refreshingly entertaining movie. Some of the dialog is substandard, some of the acting substandard, but that doesn't really matter in this story. My wife and I enjoyed it, at home on DVD from our public library.

The lead is Sarah Fisher as London Quinn, she is a happy and curious young lady, living at home to save money so that she can build her dream home. It helps that her friend from childhood is Jake Allyn as architect Dawson Gage. It is clear that he would like more from the relationship but she treats him almost like a brother.

A tragedy happens and it comes to light that London's mom and dad had a second invitro embryo that may or may not have become a brother or sister of London's some 20+ years ago, so much of the story involves that hunt for a possible sibling.

We found some things puzzling and realize that, in real life, what they did would be difficult, but hey, it is a fictional story so we just went with it.

Interestingly to us, Lynn Collins who plays London's mother Louise Quinn, grew up near us and went to Klein High School, just a few miles away. She doesn't have the recognition of many 40-something actresses but she is very good in the role.

Also Sarah Fisher is an accomplished songwriter and singer and does a short duet with her dad in the movie, but if one were to look her up online would find out her grandmother was an opera singer and young Ms Fisher does a rendition of "Think of Me" from "Phantom" and she does it better than some of the singers who have starred as Christine.

Now, I was already a fan of the book, Someone Like You, and was very excited to see it come to life. It was a well done movie and I'm so thankful for the Christian theme that was throughout. I appreciate the team that made this movie and showed again that it doesn't have to have explicit things to make a good movie. I do feel like the book was better because things were able to be more developed, but that is usually true for any book made into a movie. I am hopeful that many people see this movie and enjoy it. If you go to the website you can actually can get a movie ticket for free from donations if you are unable to buy one. Thank you Karen Kingsbury for how you unashamedly give praises to God and your books point others to Him!! Praying this movie does the same.

I'm a fan of great American family and love Christian faith based movies. In that aspect I liked that the movie was faith based and showed many Christian values. But being a faith based movie I found it frustrating areas. Like Dawson loosing his girlfriend to a car accident who he loved greatly and understandably is grief stricken but then after finding out his girlfriend had a twin adopted to another family at birth Dawson going out on a search to find his girlfriends twin and tell her she had a twin sister and different parents thst kind of turned me off.. Though his intentions were innocent it still felt almost like he was stalking his girlfriends sister and didn't think how it would affect her or her adopted families lives by interfering and revealing to his dead girlfriends sister that she had another mom and dad and a sister. Also the way it was handled by London sister when she found out by Dawson that she had a sister was not very cool. She was very angry at her adoptive parents and I guess thsts understandable but she totally blocked them.out and it was frustrating to watch how she left her adopted parents had no contact and remained distant almost like making them suffer no care for how her actions were affecting and hurting her adoptive parents while she was enjoying her life and time with her real parents and falking for Dawson. I dint know why but I just felt a bit frustrated and little upset by her actions cause I thought she should have had more thought and care to how her actions would affect her adopted parents. The adopted parents were the parents who raised her loved her and gave her a great life even her real.mom told her she needed to call them let them.know she forgave them and that she was OK but she let her adopted parents suffer with uncertainty and sadness for most of movie while she was having a great time with her real parents and especially with dawson.. thst turned me off the most and made the movie substandard for me. Im.glad Dawson finally told her she needed to think of her adopted folks and go home and I'm glad she finally listened to her real mom and Dawson and did go home to her family thst raised snd loved her all those years from when she was just a baby. Other than that the movie was nice sweet and had some good scenes but I just kept getting frustrated everything I saw how much her adopted parents were hurting and she allowed that to go on way to long.
