Easter Replacements

This was an enjoyable movie to watch which seemed lighthearted but had a nice message. The diverse cast had realistic, finely drawn, strong characters which lent dimension to the story. Each actor had some really nice moments. They were a pleasure to watch.

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!
