The only thing standing between Dr. Lisa Leland (Candace Cameron Bure) and the wedding of her dreams in the Hamptons is a 2600-mile drive from Los Angeles to Long Island. However, a run in with the law in the country town of Normal, North Carolina leaves Dr. Leland with a choice - jail or community service. Sentenced to serve three days as the town's doctor, Lisa has her world turned upside down by a man she would never expect. Quickly, Lisa finds that there's a lot more to Normal than she could have ever imagined.

Title: You've been warned!! Christian values ahead...and, oh my...they quote...The Bible.
Review: I resisted watching this movie because I thought it would be a "road" movie. I've seen some on Hallmark and it isn't my favorite story line, so I have passed this movie by for weeks and weeks. Today, bored and trying to stay out of the oppressive heat, I rented it. I am so glad that I did.Candace Cameron Bure plays a doctor from the big city who lands in a small "middle of nowhere" town. Because of prior bad acts (not paying parking tickets), she finds herself doing community service for three days. No surprise as a plot device, the town needs a doctor. As the main characters, who represent town folk, seek to win her over, we see the usual country fare. God, church, and community are mentioned, and a dance isnthrown in for good romantic measure. Meanwhile, materialistic doctor-boyfriend is waiting in the Hamptons for Lisa, (Cameron-Bure's character) to complete her journey. He call periodically to remind her that she is costing them major bucks by landing herself in this predicament. I was glad that the film makers didn't complete that typical story arc and make the boyfriend, Steve, a total jerk. He was kind of a jerk, but really, he just didn't get it. The film stays less mean spirited that way.Cute, sappy, contrived, predictable are some of the adjectives used, or at least the thoughts conveyed in some other reviews. All of it is true. If you're not a Christian, and you try really hard, you'll be offended. You'll just have to get over it or ask Amazon for your money back. However, if you're reading this review, you were warned.I thought this was one of the sweetest, freshest, movies to come out of...where? This didn't come out of Hollywood! I'm thankful that someone put down on film and integrated it into a believable story line just how stupid it is to protest a cross in a community where everyone agrees that it should be there.I'm thankful that someone put on film that a woman who "just wants a good life" can find one in this "backwater" setting. One reviewer said that the romance story was contrived, but it's not. I lived it to a degree. I'm a city girl who married a country boy. I looked at the goodness and honesty of his life and left my Beemer dreams behind. And after reading and working and living in a society where it seems no one shares my belief in God, it is so nice to see a Christian film that celebrates belief, that treats belief with respect and shows people with faith as ones to be admired, not mocked.So often in these films, the acting in stilted at best. The locations are contrived, the music is bad. The whole thing just makes you cringe because you want good, Christian entertainment, but you want all of the "Hollywood" stuff as well. This movie delivers! You won't find any of them up for an Oscar, but that's getting to be a secular joke too, isn't it? No, this isn't the best movie I've ever seen. These aren't the best actors. But, this movie made me smile AND I didn't browse the internet while I listened to it, either. As soon as I finish this review, I intend to buy the DVD. Why? Because the next time I'm bored and it's too hot (it'll be too hot tomorrow and the day after, and the day after...) I'll have it here and I can watch it again.

Title: This DVD is a down to earth family type of video with forgotten values.
Review: This is a family-type video for people who do not want to see extreme or unexpected things that sometimes pop up in movies. (I would rate this as a P.G. movie).It is funny, and surprisingly down to earth in its plot. The plot is about a California general surgeon who leaves her California home and employment.She travels by herself, in her sportscar, with her house planted across the United States as she finds mischief and meets an unexpected colleague who challenges her to use spiritual instincts in her very skillful medical knowledge she had already developed earlier.During this journey, she quickly makes memorable friends and has a change of plans, as she discovers a new life, she never thought she had, while canceling the original ones.Life is not what you always expected, but mysteries can turn into new dreams!

Title:
Review: A beautiful story of human connection. A successful doctor comes to a town, in need, of a doctor, and through circumstances, she brought on herself, she learns the meaning of community and love and what is important in life. Money can't buy love or a sense of self worth. People - are the answer.

Review: It is nice to see a good movie with meaning & value's. A big movie budget does not mean a good movie.Amazon is stupid with this minimum number of word's to leave my grade of the item. More word's needed.
