I loved it!
13 September 2018 | by ysraelc – See all my reviews

👍 A weekend 'MOST SEE', w/o a doubt! This novel needed it to be resurfaced for these times. The director gave to this production a fresh look to this classic. I honestly believe it could've done great on the big screen, tbh 😌 Rob Lowe's character is the reflection of every good loving parent, and was superb, as always👌 and McKenna Grace, 😱 OMG! She was incredible, what a talent! ... She's going places. Congratulations! It was fantastic 👏
