This is a well-intentioned film, but ultimately, it falls a little short. There is nothing wrong with the writing or acting, and the film moves along at a decent pace, but somehow it kept me from genuinely caring about the central characters...probably because the final result was fairly obvious from the start. I have to give high marks for the effort, but I just can't give the movie a passing grade.
