This is one of those flicks that is TV-movie-esque, "nice" in a cutesy way; one of those movies that makes me feel like a jaded movie-goer because I'm not amused or touched when I'm supposed to be. To tell you the truth, I almost walked out on the flick (considering it was a nice spring day), but like a trooper, sat through it, clawing at myself for an hour and a half. OK, it wasn't that bad... The lead actress Anna Lise Phillips was cute and charming—she looks like a young Alex Kingston, and there's nothing wrong with that. The sets were great, and the main character's mother, who literally comes back as a ghost, had a great wardrobe. Um... and... and... ummm. Shoot. I didn't like it. Period. 'Nuff said.
