This movie is great!! I love Andy Griffith, and have since first seeing him as a youngster on Mayberry! Also love Doris Roberts from Everyone loves Raymond! They picked two of the best to play these parts!! A + in my book!! Patricia Groman (Trish)

The story was painfully predictable, and the humor was a little too contrived at times, but this was still a cute, fun flick. Good movie to watch with your parents.
Roger Dodger is definitely the better flick though. -
