Dove Review

While I found this film entertaining and heartwarming, I cannot recommend it. The language is unnecessary as is the on screen sex scene. What can be taken away is that faithfulness is important in relationships as is an open dialog between spouses. The main characters never seem to connect on any level as they go about their own lives. While the story is told by Cristina, much of the dysfunction revolves around the Clasky’s and their inability to communicate with each other.
