“I like sappy. I prefer to call it tender, as in tender moments.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI love Jewel Staite. Besides being a Firefly alum and Stargate Atlantis, she was well cast for this role. I think she can do that unexpected strength trait well. And it was easy to identify with her pain. Her speech in the second to last scene was a good one.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTravis Milne was solid and Stephanie Bennett played an important role as Sarahu0026#39;s sister-in-law who was unexpectedly hiding her own pain, but only showing a strong face for Sarah.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe relationship between Ryan and Sarah is perfect. They progress from cautious to something deeper seamlessly. It makes sense. Sometimes the progress is shown through little things like the ring.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe story may have a predictable outcome and even some milestones along the way, but it isnu0026#39;t an overused plot line. Itu0026#39;s a good story. In addition to tender moments there are some funny moments, but most of them are dry humor and some are funny because of how bad the jokes are (and they are meant to be).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI enjoyed this movie and Iu0026#39;m sure Iu0026#39;ll watch it again. If you donu0026#39;t like this kind of movie, then donu0026#39;t watch it, or switch channels, but donu0026#39;t criticize it for being what it was meant to be.”
