I won't waste a lot of time going over the whole plot of this film, as it has already been done numerous times. Basically, just a nice, sometimes funny, sometimes serious little film that I just couldn't bring myself to turn away from. Check it out, don't shy away from a film just because movie citics give it "2 thumbs down"!! That's the ones I have to see. Good movie here.
