I don't know why it has rating of 3.x, I am giving it 7/10. Acting was good (you are not expecting Tom Cruise romance, don't you ?). Almost every one acted good. Unlike some other reviewers I found movie very romantic. I am neither divorced nor married, on the contrary I am quite young but I could feel the touch of love director wanted to give. Its based on a true story, you can literally feel what the guy has gone through. I think you need to be mature enough to understand the love shown in the movie, hence all ones in their 20s and early/mid 30s may not be not be able to relate to the movie. Its for you if you think love makes you complete, if you think your wife is the one women for you and you don't need any other till you die and you want to grow old loving her. Go buy a DVD without thinking much. Only negative side is religion is shoved down your throat from time to time (just like movie "Fireproof") and that's why I did not give it 8.
In his mid/late 40s, with two teenage daughters and a decent work life complete with his own Magical Best Black Friend and Jesus Christ by his side, divorcée Dave suddenly finds himself regretting what he did when he was 19. Drugs? Rebellion? Promiscuity? Oh, no, Dave broke up with his high school sweetheart, a hot little cheerleader named Mary ("just like Jesus' mom!" I said).
In trying to piece his post-divorce life back together, Dave begins going to group therapy for other "victims" of divorce and meets early- 30s Carla, a bomb brunette who also has - you'll never believe this - a lingering flame for her high school sweetheart.
With the help of Carla, Magical Best Black Friend, and, of course, Jesus, can Dave regain his mojo? Can innocent teen love provide answers to complex middle adulthood?
Find out with Me & You, Us, Forever, the ungrammatical thriller that takes one man back to 1974 with production values that seem straight out of 1974 ("that's so pomo!" I said). With trite writing, pseudo- Christian pseudo-philosophy, and a nails-on-chalkboard awkward story, maybe you, too, can see how selfishness, emotional instability, and a warped view of teen relationships can appear like wholesome family entertainment when you splatter it with the love of Christ.

From everything I'd read about the movie, I was excited to support a film with a Christian theme. Everything about the movie was very unprofessionally done. Especially the writing! Without good writing a movie doesn't have a chance. The writer/director said in an interview that he didn't want to give away how the title relates to the story. Believe me, it was NO big surprise. I kept waiting for the teenage/young adult back-story to unfold, but it never did. As someone who has gone through a divorce, I was very disappointed. This movie would have been NO comfort to me when I first went through the emotional turmoil that divorce can bring to your life as a Christian!
I really enjoyed this movie. I have been in this exact situation - meeting the girl you missed in high school 26 later. Would have loved to see their reunion go more deeply--because it can. Time doesn't always change everything. The essentials can remain and if it was love, real love, it love never dies. It can be picked up where things left off. Good theme music and and gently handled. Jesus is an architect of souls, He can match a man and woman like no one can. Good job Dave.
I really really enjoyed this movie and plan on purchasing it when it becomes available. It did a very good job of explaining the difficulties in divorce. Especially when children are also involved. I suggest the married, unmarried, and divorced watch this movie because it can help prevent and confirm some questions you may have thought about in the past. I also have to agree with the other persons comment regarding how refreshing it was to watch a movie without worrying about hearing profanity or seeing any type of nudity. Dave Christiano makes nothing but good Christ Centered movies. I look forward to seeing more from you in the near future. Praise The Lord!
