I think I would have enjoyed this movie a little bit better if I hadn't felt like I was being preached at. Not really into story's made to fit into social agendas.

I really liked the movie except for the ending. I am led to believe that he adopted the baby and she disappeared from his life for a few years until meeting at the beach? It just didn't add up.

Sweet, feel good movie that leaves you with a satisfied feeling. "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans." Recommended.

Rather elegantly filmed story. Nothing too deep to haunt you but a touching story that held me captive. A nice break from all the art film fests i find myself in.

A beautiful story that's not perfect but is still positive and uplifting despite tragedies. Eduardo Verastegui is good without being too over the top. The brothers' characters are a little too fanciful but I can overlook that to enjoy the heart of the story. Tammy Blanchard di...( read more)
