It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
I watched this film because I found the story of a young woman, jilting her beau and going on a journey of self-discovery--with her flamboyant sister no less--would present interesting conflict. If this was a vanity project for Shelley Long, she needs a long look in the mirror, because instead of a worthwhile story, what the viewer gets is a formulaic, meandering 99 minutes that ends predictably, but could have been so much better with a few tweaks. The problem is underscored by the movies ending, when Millie--the runaway bride--has her epiphany, which comes with such a suddenness that it seems as if the writer centered the entire premise around that one scene. Two, the grandmotherly advice given (Shelly Long) at the end would have better served both Millie and Ellen (her sister) had it been imparted before the sisters hit the road; in this way, it would have given a believable reason for the sisters' on-the-road conflict. However, the film does offer two solid performances by the sister, played by Emman Bell (whom viewers might remember as Amy Harrison on The Walking Dead) and Hope Lauren. But Long comes up short as the sage grandmother, and the men are cookie-cutter softies and horn dogs whose presence is largely irrelevant. In short, the film comes off as out of sequence and a waste of time unless you literally have nothing better to do than waste an hour and a half.
Steve Agee, Shelly Long, Sean Gunn, Romy Rosemont and the list goes on for fun cameo performances from some heavy hitter stars. They add so much to this charming movie. I want to visit the diner, I want to go to the farm, I just enjoyed every single setting in this film. The directing really made the characters come to life and I loved their life. It captured me from the first scene and made me want to be there for the entirety of the movie. I enjoyed it and highly recommend it to everyone. It is great to have a movie you can watch with your family or your girl and just have a fun time watching a movie. It captures everyone with its charm and its great music.
I enjoyed this movie. It takes place in the heartland complete with farms, chickens, country roads and great characters. I was amazed how the story about two sisters finding friendship again with the help of Shelley Long, their grandmother, was so well done. The movie is a fun story that will capture you from the start and the cinematography and beautiful settings really add to each scene. I thought all the actors were allowed to give it their all in this movie from the main characters, Hope Lauren and Emma Bell, to the smaller roles including parts by Shelley Long, yes the famous Ms. Long from Cheers, and Sterling Knight from my Disney days. I really liked the story of this movie as it was not your classic film with female leads, the females in this movie were strong characters and you wanted to follow their story. I am a huge fan of Darlingside and was pleasantly surprised they were able to get that level of music throughout this film. Well done. Would watch again.
not the worst movie I have ever watched but the story really sucks I mean was this supposed to be comedy? I won't even bother spoiling this since there is nothing there. actresses are average looking at best they are BORING. everything they do together is boring. watch it if you want to prove to yourself that girls are boring when they're out doing things without their boyfriend. a total waste of time.
