    Decent storyline. Unfortunate execution.

    The story concept is good. Ripped from a Hallmark movie, it's an exec who pretends to be someone else, then meets the girl of his dreams. The viewer knows there will be a reckoning at some point, just like in the Hallmark movies.

    Unfortunately, this film suffers greatly from poor production that chopped the film into a million pieces and made it hard to follow or understand at times.

    Watched it thrice

    I really think the negative reviewers hate God. Any movie with goodness in it they cannot handle. I've watched the movie three times. It has a Cinderella theme and a Rocky theme. I found the lead couple had good chemistry and the movie charming. Good wins out in the end. Of course you cynics might have a hard time with that. I have learned not to trust the commercial critics. Usually what most of them like I hate and vice versa. Without faith in God how can one believe in good triumphing over evil especially when the ultimate triumph will be in the after life. Oh well, their terrible loss. Now I am also learning not to trust the unbelieving lay critics when it comes to Christian movies. So many low rated Christian movies on IMDB I took a chance, watched them, and thoroughly enjoyed them. I admit some Christian movies are not done well. But this one is, otherwise I would not have watched it three times.

    boring

    Kind of boring i'd really wish they keep religion out of movies no place for it in it

    Wow...doesnt get much worse than this

    Problem with focusing on religion is that fundamentals like writing and acting are a low priority. As others have said, this may be some of the worst acting you'll ever see on screen. Combined with bad writing and direction this film is a disaster. I dare you to watch more than 10 minutes.

    Very touching yet honest and real.

    Absolutely loved this movie. Great family movie written well and not afraid to recognize God is the center of it all. A must see movie.
