| User ReviewIris GThis maiden effort of Ron Satloff and Ira Perstein in a lovely one. It is a story about love and redemption, loss and tolerance, bigotry and understanding. In limited release, done on a uber small budget, the movie is something special to see. Go see it. |
| User ReviewDaniel PProvocative, hilarious and a huge amount of fun, I saw it at a screening, and I'm looking forward to watching it on the big screen. |
| User ReviewLeira MFunny and touching, this is a great date movie! |
| User ReviewE Frederic MI saw this film in Preview. It's very cool; nice twists and turns; easy going and very important at the same time. I really liked it. |
| User ReviewMatthew Li loved this movie. It's a feel-good story that brings up serious issues in a really entertaining way. It was great how the movie shows what the religious Christians and the gay people end up having in common. Orlando Jones and AJ Cook were wonderful in the lead roles. He's one of the gay husbands and she's the Christian woman who hears from God. I saw this movie at a festival and was happy to find out it was finally coming out in theatres. Everyone should go see it when it is released. It has great music and you will leave the movie singing and feeling great. |
| User ReviewLeo LThis sympathetic film, which has comedy and a sincere and honest look at the complications, of men and babies in an ever complicated moral, ethical, legal and Christian country it gives an honest portrayal. However, considering the script given to the actors, they bring out honest human emotions that they portray with modern day humanity in a high quality standard. Nibbles: Wedding Cake. |
| User ReviewMarc TMisconceptions is a well acted, socially relevant, good natured yarn-- and a lot of fun. It has a Preston Sturges-type of plot with improbable situations and likable characters who have unusual and life-changing experiences. It has a great pace,and mixes humor, affection and pathos. The sold-out audience "got it" and laughed out loud at the humor. The actors resonated with each other in ensemble fashion. You care about the characters and they will stay with you after the film ends. We need more honest low-budget films like this. You should try to catch it during its limited release (I think it plays for one week in just a few major cities)." |
| User ReviewCéline DThis movie was so weird and odd and great and fantastic. The use of the church music was perfect. Really relatable movie. Maybe not in everything that happens, but definitely the emotions behind it. |
| User ReviewTonya VThis is a charming little movie - go see it |
