The Review

This movie had a vision, unfortunately it's vision was archaic instead of old fashioned. Old fashioned is respect, courtesy and ideals that reflect the beauty in one another. What we see here is not quite that. An antique store owner that has a jaded past turns his life around with faith. A free spirit needs a place to stay and there is an empty apartment above the store. As they meet and begin interacting, there is a distance between them. This is because he has gotten so lost in his faith as well as facts and figures that he has distanced himself from everyone. She on the other hand is wanting to get to know him... Even if it's at his pace. The things that they do together run into stop light signals along the way with very few greens. He won't let go of some of his control issues and it could end up costing him everything. What lies beneath this calm and cool exterior? Is she willing to change for him or is the attraction simply wanting something we can't have. This unusual romance story isn't much of a romance at all. It is a story of redemption and forgiveness. This setting and story are out of place in any time period. The characters are both off putting and relatable. The issue of control is as much part of this story as it is in a story this tries to contradict. The control manifests itself in different ways but it just as prevalent without having the flexibility that a relationship requires. A cute story that just falls short...
