...it was nice to see a western with a good cast of well known actors. All did well but would like to see Tim McGraw loosen up a bit more, he was too wooden. The foul language is too much for me, would like to see it downgraded from moderate to mild . The narration is not needed, hopefully it will be dropped in future episodes. Overall, I enjoyed the series and looking forward to the next episodes.

...because I have been a fan of Heather way back in the 80's and 90's and have read the book, Don't sweat the small stuff at the time it first came out. It was nice to see Heather back in the game and I thought she did great in her performance. The two daughters performed very well too. I don't watch Lifetime movies because they are generally geared for younger viewers but wanted to watch this one because of Heather and the Carlson book. It's a genuine and heartfelt movie. If you are a fan of Heather or have read the book, watch it...I didn't feel I wasted my time on it. Six stars.

I don't recommend this film. I have no problems for a film to show depressing people lives in a retirement community but to provide no balance of inspirational or uplifting stories of other retirees is just plain dumb. I didn't enjoy watching it...I had to skip a few minutes here and there on screen because it was depressing. If the film had shown more or focus into the lives of the other retirees who were happy in their community then I probably would have enjoyed it. Give this film a miss and google The Villages if you want some info on this community.
