The weakest spot in this story is the lack of conversation about Amanda's feelings concerning her schooling, and where she might want to live. She plays a pretty big role in the film, but until one of the last scenes we don't hear that her heart is in the town she's been living in with her father, even though she's been pretty vocal in other situations in the film.
How does an ex-girlfiend of the dad swoop in after an apparent two year absence and try to take over the lives of these two people without a peep from the child involved? I think the script writers get to take the blame for that.
The acting was well done, particularly the natural chemistry between the leads. It's too bad they didn't have a stronger script.
