It almost seems a little backwards to review a film you participated in, but I have to tell you what a wonderful experience it was to be a part of this wonderful rom-com. This was definitely a labor of love. I started out as a simple photo on the shelf, as the grandmother that asked for "the promise" to be made, and ended up a real part of this story. (thank you, Candy) What a joy to be able to play the flashback scenes with Bruce & Katie, two very talented actors for whom I have a great deal of respect. Katie is simply amazing as adult Mackenzie. I could go on about her forever. And Bruce is the consummate troublesome grandfather. Anything you asked of him, he would do. This is yet another wonderful script by the stellar Candy Beard. And Daniel Beard's innovative camera techniques make this a wonderful work of art. You will enjoy this fun-loving film with your whole family.

From the beginning to end the film is amazing. There is no other way to put it. You get a feel right away how much heart and soul was poured into making this nearly a decade old project come to life! The leads were drenched with professionalism! Full of friendly and very funny laughable moments! Highly recommend anyone and everyone to watch this film! I can assure you will not be disappointed!

I loved this movie! I loved the storyline and the actors did a great job! This family friendly film is very funny and very heartwarming. This film teaches you about the relationship between a grandpa and granddaughter. How much love a grandpa has for his granddaughter and has her best interest at heart even if he is a little mischievous , lol.

This comedy film is very funny and relatable to what actually happens in real life. The writer did a fantastic job telling this story. The producers and cinematographer did a wonderful job putting this together. I know it takes a lot of work and this film was done very well.

A very promising film that should appeal to any teenager/young adult child, parent or grandparent. All will find a character that they can relate. Humor, heart break, embarrassment, fear, love and forgiveness abound. In addition to a great escape, I think every film is a silent teacher. Here, there is a clear message that a promise is both a sacred social contract and a self-imposed prison. Second, is a solid reminder that while love is great it requires some work. I want to say in closing that it has been an honor to watch the caliber of this company's productions improve.

The Promise. Is a very well thought out, well written, and wonderful feel good walk down the road of Mackenzie and George Miller's life in a season of time which has one Miller haunted by memories of the past and being afraid to move forward with his future, whule the other Miller just wants a chance to balance the life she has with the life she dreams of. While Mackenzie and her Grandpa George are all each other have after the passing of her parents and her grand mother, she longs for a "normal" life like every other woman dreams of from the time they are little girls: to find her Mr. Right and live happily ever after. But its a bit more complicated than that since Mackenzie made a promise to her grandmother before she passed away to always tske care of and watch over her grandfather. Makimg it worse yet is the fact that Grandpa George would do anything to keep Mackenzie to himself. Together they live, love, laugh, cry and try to find the common ground necessary to survive between the Promise and happily ever after.

I have watched this movie over and over. The acting by the characters is very good and the writing team did a great job. Just like all of the other movies, this one does not disappoint. I love the characters of grandpa and granddaughter especially. I wish everyone could get along and at least try to coexist with each other, especially families. Very relaxing and entertaining movie for the whole family. Even the little ones could learn a lesson or two from this one. Try to see which character you are and see what you could change in your life to make any of your relationships better. I try to be the best person I can be but realized I have a few things to work on. Kind of makes you appreciate people more while they're here. The movie was a joy to watch.

This film is a very clean rom-com that will keep you laughing through the whole thing. It is so fresh and funny but, it also touches on real life situations that can happen. It also teaches respect and the importance of making and keeping promises.

Mybmom and I had the honor of being extras on thos film. During a restaurant scene we were the extras in the booth behind the 2 main leads and it was so hard to keep a straight face and not laugh while we were in action. The main characters meshed so well together and kept everyone smiling and laughing. Watching the completed film was the best. If you haven't seen this film yet, you are missing out. Candy J. Beard and her son Daniel Beard make an amazing team and their films just get better and better. That shows in the many awards they have won for this and other films.

We also wete honored to meet the amazing Ken kirchival (known for the Dallas series) who is originally from Clinton, Indiana. He was so down to earth.

This film is a family friendly Romantic Comedy (my favorite) with Amazing characters everyone can relate to. Sure to be a hit in every home. A must see film with lots of heart. Keep the tissues nearby! Great movie!!!

This is another great film from the mother and son filmmaking team in the Wabash Valley. They premiered this rom-com at a local church and it was open to the public so I attended with some close friends. We all loved it. We literally laughed out loud, but there were times in which we cried too (which makes the best kind of movie!) Bonus: They got an acting icon to make an appearance in the film. He also spent hours on the red carpet, meeting and greeting with guests, signing autographs and posing for photos with everyone before the premiere. Even he (Ken Kercheval) loved the movie. I heard him say so with my own ears after the lights came back on and before an award ceremony was held.

Being from the town in which this film was made, it was a real treat to see film locations that we recognized. The lead actors had so much chemistry which made the film very fun to watch. I tried to put myself in "Mackenzie's" place and tried to imagine what it would be like if my grandfather had pulled the shenanigans that Grandpa Miller pulled on his granddaughter.

The comedy in this film was hilarious but clean, which I appreciated. I can watch this film with a group of family members and never feel ashamed or uncomfortable.

Bruce Royer was adorable as the mischievous Grandpa Miller and he is worthy of a best acting award, or at the very least, a nomination, in my opinion. Beautiful scores, realistic writing, funny actors and great cinematography make this independent film (which BTW doesn't look or feel independent at all) make this a MUST SEE movie. It would make a great "first date" movie to see!

Very well done without going over the top in any direction. Funny, serious, and heartfelt, with something for everyone. I did enjoy it!

I had the privilege of seeing The Promise at the world premiere they had on November 4, 2017 at the Bridge Church. It is a laugh out loud comedy that will have you saying "What will Grandpa do or say next?" And "Will Mackenzie find her Mr. Right?"

I will say it was a treat that they managed to get Ken Kercheval (DALLAS) in their movie since he was from the Wabash Valley. He did a meet & greet on the red carpet with each and every person in attendance which was super cool.

The writing and cinematography were outstanding.

Katie Peterson and Bruce Royer had excellent chemistry as Granddaughter and Grandfather and if I didn't know any better, I would think that they were really related. Chemistry between actors is vital for the success of a film.

If you get a chance to see this movie you will not be disappointed as it's a great movie and I highly recommend this film. Fun fact this movie is also a multi award winner. Watch it and you'll discover why.

I was able to screen The Promise at my film festival this past April and it is a wonderful film. The love shared by the two main characters were evident from the beginning. Having been very close to my own grandparents, I loved to see their heartfelt interactions. And laugh a bit in the process.

The writing was superb and very natural.

I would not hesitate to tell anyone to take a chance and travel down the road with Mackenzie and George Miller; See Mackenzie explore the dating scene, while George continually lays speed bumps out for her. Witness their growth during the whole process. Love!!

If you like to have your emotions tested, this award winning, independent, Christian film will have you laughing one minute and crying the next! Grandpa Miller is one crusty character you will just love to hate. His granddaughter just wants to live a normal life but grandpa is making that very difficult. The writing, the directing, the chemistry between the actors, the original music are all top notch! And, if you like happy endings, this is the film for you. Take some time to take a journey through the life of two people trying to, one, keep things the same, the other trying to move on. Well worth the journey.

This film has all of the things that make you laugh and cry. Great story line of faith family and values. Family is everything. So lacking in movies here lately but this one has it all. Kudos to all.

This was a really fun and refreshing story... Absolutely love seeing movies that are appropriate for all ages while still entertaining for all ages! Not only was it a fun watch, but you could tell that the team behind it had a great time putting this film together...The joy came through!

One of the highlights of this movie is that it was very dynamic... There were so many threads: grief, dating, betrayal, family bonds. While serious at times, overall it was funny! Loved seeing the grandfather's antics. Who doesn't love a romcom with some tomfoolery in it? Will definitely look forward to seeing again.

What a refreshing, well produced , feel good romantic comedy. The characters were realistic, relatable, and just plain funny.

The underlying message of love, loyalty and dogged determination was infused with such a lighthearted sweetness as to be totally indearing.

The writing and acting were superb and the message clear. All families have their struggles, but love and honesty prevail.

There was a bit of everything here. Sadness, frustration, hysterical missteps, and above all an honest look at good people struggling to do the right thing.

This film has it all. Watching it made me feel uplifted about real people doing real life. Must see!

I loved this movie the storyline and the relationship between the grandfather and his granddaughter was excellent. He just wanted the very best for her. Sometimes when you want the best it's hard to let things happen. DCTF is extremely excellent at the way he they write these films and all the hard work that goes in to making them. This film had to be done twice but thank GOD for giving them the opportunity to get their film done.

Family friendly,comedy it should be in theaters for everyone to see. There is not enough family friendly movies to go see at the theaters.

DCTF are simply the best.

I made a whole weekend out of watching three wonderful movies by Dreams Come True Films. They are a small, independent and faith based production team from the Midwest and they are wonderful. I loved all the films. Each storyline was unique and original. I did see one familiar face pop up in each of these three films and he was quite good and quite believable in each character he played.

In "The Promise" this particular actor (Bruce H. Royer) played the lead. He was an ornery old grandfather who tries to sabotage his only granddaughter's love life to keep her around in his golden years. But he did so in such a way that you could not get mad at him or dislike his character. You just had to love him despite his shenanigans. The granddaughter had the patience of a saint. LOL.

Grab a snack, cuddle with your fur baby and settle in for a clean, fun and absolutely wonderful romantic comedy like you've never seen before.

I didn't know what to expect from this independent film, but it certainly exceeded my expectations. Director, Daniel Beard and Executive Producers Mark and Candy Beard of Dreams Come True Films --- what a fabulous job you have done in making this movie. Thank you so much for sharing your talents. YOU NAILED IT AND I LOVED IT!!

I think it is the best movie that I have seen this year. And Bruce Royer, you outdid yourself. You deserve a Best Actor award for sure. Your comedic side was wonderful in this movie! Wow! Just wow! What an awesome movie! This film really stirred up something inside of my heart. You should be very proud.

This movie really gets to your heart. From beginning to end you can tell the cast and The director and the writer really cares about people.

What everyone has to go through. It's really touching you. Learn to depend on God and to always depend on each other as well. This one actually hits close to home. As I lost several family members in the last few years to cancer. I love how the family comes together after each tragedy and help each other. We all should keep our promises especially to God. Just like he keeps his promise to us. The writer of this movie did an awesome job. It's just like it's happening to your own family.
