Trivia
When Alexia steps out of the limousine, the limo driver that is holding the door open for her is the author, Jim Stovall, who wrote "The Ultimate Gift" and helped write "The Ultimate Life." See more »Goofs
Waiting at the airport, he has written "I am a billionaire" on a page hand dated December 26, 1968, just before he is called to the phone to hear that Hamilton has been in a car accident. When he gets to the hospital room seeing Hamilton in a coma, he pulls out his journal and opens it to the page he had been writing at the airport, and now it shows as "I'm a billionaire" and the date on the page reads "December 28th 1968." Then, he flips between previous pages in his journal, and then back to the page he is writing on again, and now it shows "I am a billionaire," but the date is out of the frame, then in the next frame it shows "I am a billionaire," but the date written is "December 26th, 1968".

It's probably not something that would blast the box office open, but its a notch above others that I've seen. It's definitely worth watching. I enjoyed this movie enough to write a review because:
1) It's totally CLEAN. Absolutely nothing lewd or inappropriate. I would watch a movie for this alone, given how rare it is. 2) Plenty of amazing looking guys, yum. :) 3) A positive, not overly cheesy, message. At first, I was worried it was gonna be one of those dogmatic, preachy, "Christian" films or something... 4) The film leaves a "feel good" feeling that stays with you. 5) It's good enough to watch again, with family or friends. Nothing too scary for the young kiddos. 6) Pretty decent, interesting storyline and plot, definitely wasn't bored watching it and rooted for the characters the whole way. 7) Has a good, satisfying ending, and not depressing. I hate movies where you feel bittersweet and left hanging at the end. 8) Was really beautifully shot for an "average" movie. Wait, maybe the movie wasn't so average, after all, haha.
You won't regret watching this, unless you're just not into sweet romantic, inspirational, rated PG family films. :)
