Easter Replacements

A comic drama that sets up a surprising dilemma when four strangers show up for an Easter dinner celebration with a couple who have differing ideas of how the day should play out. The story probes personal ethical questions for each of the characters. As the day progresses, tension builds to where each needs to make big decisions for themselves and towards each other. The film is cleverly written, with great performances by the ensemble cast.

It's an enjoyable ride with quirky characters, good acting, uplifting music, and an overall positive message that leaves you thinking about it. I would definitely recommend.

Not every movie needs to be life and death with world shattering consequences. Your proof is right here. This is a simple, real time, dinner party comedy with a nice range of characters and plots that come together with a great Easter message that remains light on religious overtones.

A married couple is comically pressured into hosting an Easter for 4 strangers and what transpires is full of quirky people, modern references, mistaken identities, and conflicting motivations. There's lots of back and forth leaving you to wonder who, if anyone, will ultimately get their way. And that's the whole fun of it!

I dug the multiracial cast, uplifting score, and just overall positive message this movie had to share with the world.

I thoroughly enjoyed this gem of a film from beginning to end! The actors were all so fun to watch. There were a lot of good funny moments. I thought they were all very good and played off of each other so well! I never found myself getting bored or my mind wonder off (that is a very good sign for me when rating a film). Kudos to writer/director Travis Grenke. He wore a number of hats on this project (he was the editor as well). The pacing of this film was terrific. It moved along super well which is so important and it kept the funny at really nice clip without getting zany or too out there. So for me, this one clearly gets a thumbs up! Bravo folks! Well done!

Great message, lighthearted, family movie. Diverse cast of great actors. Funny scenes and strong storytelling. I recommend this film. The dialog is strong.

What would you do if you had to host 2 couples of complete strangers while dealing with marital issues? This movie raises questions regarding family values in the backdrop of social expectations. If this sounds like something you are interested in, give this indie a go, it might surprise you.
