Sez Says ... A good cast peppered with real talent but a silly movie. Love takes many forms from teenage enthusiasm to the wonders of the elderly dancing in the moonlight in a graveyard--- in case you don't get the symbolism. Not particularly funny or fun and the biggest revelation the story offers is that you true love may be your best friend and/or that a mother's love may be more substantial than romantic love 

MJC Says:  much as I am a sentimental slob this movie never took off  to send the heart strings quivering. Perhaps it is just too many movies over the years but the plot was as predictable in it's parts as in it's whole from the teenagers being discovered by mom when they plan a tryst in the girl's house to the final discovery that your best friend is the one you should be with.
