Goofs:

Factual errors: The bar exam is only given in February and July. When Rick visits his parents in Kansas, it's snowing, and his mom is asking him to come home for Christmas. So either it's snowing in Kansas in July, or Rick's mom is making Christmas plans in February.

Fun, clean, romantic adventure.

I was very happy about the choices for character casting. Everyone became their part, seeming very comfortable. Our two main characters had very good chemistry. The intermittent characters were given enough focus and detail so that you easily remember them.

It was amusing to follow the characters through all of their adventures. Most of the subplots were rooted in humor, but there were also some dramatic family elements that I felt were well balanced.

Some of the jokes were gross, but still funny. They easily avoided inappropriate language and situations leaving this film an easy pick for teens.

Can't wait for the DVD!
