I’ve been waiting for this movie ever since I watched the trailer on dial-up internet in 2006. This movie did not meet my expectations. Rather, it was something else entirely. What are expectations really but just the joy of imagining a perfect film. I have played the whole picture in my mind not knowing the true story, but what I watched was a pleasant surprise to my faulty imagination. The flaws are there, but this film will put a smile on your face. I truly enjoyed it thoroughly! Was it what I wanted? No. But maybe I didn’t know what I wanted, and it delivered. Well done Patrick Read Johnson.
