I haven't seen such a good contemporary film with meaning for a long time. Great acting by everyone. Very joyous with some drama and an uplifting ending. Hooray to the director and everyone involved - a fantastic film that I thoroughly enjoyed.

It was an entertaining story about the relationship between an uncle and his niece. No need to over analyze and pontificate about it, its just a story you can sit back and enjoy.

delightful. probably not a mans film. easy to watch. l liked chris evans in the father role.
