I actually really liked this indie movie. Sure it's unrealistic, the music is repetitive, and some of the acting makes it feel like a stage production, but you do feel immersed in this small town. The viewer gets a good sense of how Luke went from a promiscuous and troubled high schooler to a man with drive and determination.
The hotel staff and the reverend provide most of the comedic moments while the main character and his two lady friends provide the drama and heart. This is not an award-winner by any means, but it's memorable and light. You really don't need A-list actors to make a quality picture - this cast sustains itself.
