Overview
When her mother sends her on a quest to complete a teenage bucket list, a young woman uncovers family secrets, finds romance — and rediscovers herself.
In this genre of films, there is rarely a new idea. The success of these paint-by-numbers films often comes down to how well the film can deliver heartfelt moments that don’t feel contrived. In other words, does it not look like it belongs on a Saturday afternoon on the lifetime channel. Fortunately, the cast in this film is very good and the film does rise above that low bar. I have to admit that I enjoyed it (Connie Britton should have been a bigger star).
