    Absolutely brilliant!

    This is one of the most refreshing movies which deals with homosexuality where sexual scenes have not been overly emphasized. It manages to portrait a complete picture of average America where stereotypes are held in the most brilliant way. It's destined to become a cult! The lyrics and the music are so intelligently intertwined that you catch yourself singing along just after the first few lines. Expect to burst out laughing at any moment.I will watch it again!

    Great Film!

    A wonderful film Great romance story full of uncertainty Camera movement was a little off sometimes The music was just good, but the dancing was wonderful Overall pleased. Wish there was less emphasis on her being a good Christian, but appreciate that she does not give up on her faith. Hopefully, see this movie be entered into some film festivals and win some awards.

    Very entertaining

    I clicked on this movie as I was getting tired of browsing and I am glad that I did. It is a very lighthearted (as most musicals are) look at politics, the news media and the religious right. The lesbian relationship between the two main characters is a sub-plot in my opinion. Jaclene Wilk was absolutely delightful as Liberty. I hope this isn't a one-off for her. I also liked the portrayal of Kenny Weston and Dick Dinkler. I was raised a Roman Catholic and I found the church scenes comical.

    In a word: Delightful

    This is a feel good movie that is perfectly campy, cheesy, romantic, and impactful. The music good, the lyrics are mostly heartfelt, the characters are likable, and the lampooning of right wing fundies without being mean is awesome. Despite it's obvious technical flaws and low budget style, I enjoyed it from beginning to end. There are two things keeping me from giving it 10 stars. First is the lack of chemistry between the two leads. I just don't feel the romantic spark between them. The second might have helped the first if done properly, and that is that we don't really see the development of a relationship. There's a montage, but the meat of the building of the romantic relationship just wasn't there.

    Still, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.

    Enjoyable even with the flaws

    It may not be the best musical but has so much charm, that the low budget works in the movies favor. I watched it on Amazon Prime and liked enough that I bought the film on Amazon. So it's with checking out if want some laughs in a good cheesy love story that comes from the heart.
