Having made a million trips up north (well past St. Ignace) through the years, and experiencing a zillion or so deer camps, as well as knowing a hunter or two that have had their buckless days, the familiar theme in this movie was so fun for me and my family. We saw the play in Detroit twice, and ran right out to buy the movie. I recommend this movie to anyone that wants a good laugh. Jeff Daniels successfully carried the enthusiasm and laughs from the play into the movie, and that can be hard to accomplish when you know people out there have such high expectations from seeing the play. Exceptional performances from everyone, but I would have to say there's no one quite like the Jimmer on the planet. He's phenomenal! Not to mention, there is a sweet side to this movie that women (besides me) will love. GO BUY THIS MOVIE!!!!! It's not just for people in Michigan, I swear!
