Kate says – 3 1/2 stars…but I have to tell the truth here.  I have not seen this movie.  This rating is based on an average rating from my daughters and friends.   I am not brave enough to see this movie.  I have seen the preview  5 times in theaters over the past several weeks, and guess what?  I can’t even make it through the preview without crying.    My daughters, who rarely ever tear up over a flick, say they cried almost the whole movie.  I would be a complete basket-case.

Ebert: 3 1/2 stars

Reelviews: 3 1/2 stars
