Pleasant movie despite some predictability.

It's rare that an American movie lets slip such a snobbish distaste for the humdrum lives of its blue-collar audience base, but of course it doesn't last.

A holiday film Joe Lieberman could love, unembarrassed by its wholesome, sugary pro-family message.

It's a film that's trying to get you to think about what brings value to your life. [...] I also like that it's about second chances - you can walk away from certain things but there's also a chance to get back to them.
