There aren't many 'feel good' movies out there these days. Everything is drama, horror or action with ridiculous amounts of CGI. Not many movies being made with good plots with interesting characters and something that leaves you smiling.
It's based off a true story which makes it all the more lovable. I even think the husband was probably Autistic as it hinted to his obsession and fascination with numbers to the point he often couldn't see beyond the constant calculations in his head...as well as his struggle with socializing with others. I say this as someone who's Autistic myself.
The acting was good, the emotional scenes were well done and it made you fall in love with the idea of community and family in a modern world during a time that our society is currently breaking in shambles...unable to see the good in one another anymore.
Makes me miss the sense of friendship and comradeship and togetherness in both big and small towns. We've forgotten what it's like to give entirely with selflessness. That's the heart of this movie...it reminds us of a time when people seemed more caring and giving.
This movie is entirely underrated.
I say go for it...and just enjoy the sweetness, the fun and the heart of the movie.
