    I loved it! I thought it was one of few best ones I had come across in the last 5 years. I thought the cast was great and the story is real enough!

    This was charming! I was drawn into the world of this little boy and, like his parents, wanted so badly to help him through his adventure. What a wonderful, funny tale.

    I laughed, I cried. A perfect recreation of first love, beautifully acted and crafted. Enjoy!

    Good Film, It was suprisingly enjoyable and had a half decent storyline. As others said it was charming and different with a good base and idea. But everyone knows this doesen't deserve a 9.7 user score

    Who is this movie's target audience, anyway? Preteens will be bored stupid, while adults are unlikely to want to revisit puppy love in such grueling detail. The lingering, soft-focus, slo-mo shots of Rosemary that punctuate the action suggest a constituency I'd rather not contemplate.
  2. While the juvenile performances are bright and engaging, and there's no shortage of genuinely humorous observations about love and life in the Big Apple, there's an inescapable small-screen dynamic to the scope and rhythm of the production.

    Resting almost entirely on the shoulders of its young leads, both they and the pic lack the sparkle to sustain what seeks to be a whimsical premise but, except for a few moments, proves ponderous instead.
