This felt like one of those made for TV Lifetime movies, that should've only been a one hour TV show. The pacing was slow and the normally comfortable 102 min runtime felt much longer. There was just too much filler and not enough substance to effectively fill in the runtime. It had heart, but mostly cheesy, especially with some of the dialogue. I didn't follow the true story, but the immaturity of the two kids portrayed was too much and borderline cringe, as were some of the dialogue from the leads. The entire production, including the writing and directing felt too amateur-hour-ish. You won't miss a thing if you skip this and just read about the true story by Googling it instead.
