    • Quotes

      [First lines]

      Sam: Why'd you breakup with her?

      Ethan Cooper: Seven reasons actually. Number one, she doesn't vote.

      Sam: Eh!

      Ethan Cooper: Shh! Number two, she cheered for Bulgaria in the last Olympics.

      Sam: Bulgarians don't even cheer for Bulgaria.

      Ethan Cooper: Okay, so it was one Bulgarian and he was missing an arm.

      Sam: The rest of the time she cheered for America?

      Ethan Cooper: Yes.

      Sam: Okay, that one's a stretch too. Look, why don't you just forget your seven reasons and admit that you only need one to talk yourself out of any girl.

      Ethan Cooper: What's that?

      Sam: That she's not Emily.

    Watch it for Christina Grimmie

    The acting isn't the best, but it's a sweet and cute movie. Christina Grimmie's voice is incredible - such a terrible and tragic loss. This film is a nice way to remember her.
