Redundant and unnecessary.

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

I was well pleased with this chick flick. I will keep it with my other special movies!!! Toby Keith was awesome and actually the whole crew was awesome. I cried in a few scenes, this 85 y.o lady can still have emotions.

This is a great family film. Anyone should be proud to add this to their personal DVD library. It is one of those rare films that leaves you wanting to see more at the end, sorry that it's over and wanting to know more about the lives of the interesting characters. The story line is extremely moving and tugs at the heart strings.What a fabulous find - as there is much garbage out there. What great fun it is to share works of art such as this. I crave more films like this one and constantly search them out. Kudos to the creators! Thank you to the cast.FYI - check out Toby Keith's I Love That Bar and Grill restaurant/bar in Bricktown/Oklahoma City. It's a fun place with great atmosphere, serving up terrific food & entertainment.

What starts off as a slower paced, mom vs daughter in modern times film, slowly, moves into it's real plot which is you can come home if you left your heart there. The film does a great job in developing the relationship between the characters present and past and what might have been and what still might be. It develops, without over developing, the deep value of family and the simple things in life. The editing was a bit choppy, but the acting, music and story all work. The story includes headliners from country, but the director did not let them steal the film, nor distract from it, just contribute to it which is no small feat in film today.

I believe the theaters have gone nuts. I got to watch the premiere of this movie and it never progressed into a release. Only major cities got to keep it after that. There are a ton of people here who would love to see it. I've bragged about it to my co-workers and I'm not a real big Toby fan. I think maybe they are trying to put this movie down, when in reality it would have done pretty darn good at the box office. The theaters need to listen to those who go to the movies, rather than the critics. From what I can see it will be out on DVD without going to the theaters and that is very disappointing. Regal, Rave, and all the other theaters should take another look at what they missed at the box. They all complain about not enough people go to the movies, maybe they need to take another look at what they show. If you get the chance to see this on the big screen, it will be well worth what you spend for a ticket. It won't be quite as good on DVD.
