Phoebe's character is the only positive thing about this movie. Everything else is a bit boring.

Phoebe was wonderful and hilarious, but I don't agree that it's boring. It was a beautiful, sad film with a lot of funny moments (not just from Phoebe). The music was great, too. And if you weren't crying at the end, then you are a robot!

When Phoebe's character is lolling about, drunk, on the bed and the phone rings (detective) you can hear the television in the background. She's WATCHING ALL MY CHILDREN!!! Michael Knight's character on that soap is named Thad (Tad?) and a female character is talking to him (you can hear it). Don't know if anyone else caught that too.

I caught that too. I think Tad and Brooke are arguing in that scene, lol!

If you can't be good, at least be good at it!

I was definitely crying at the end of the movie! I saw it with my Grandmother...may she rest in peace! Just one lovely memory that I am cherishing now.

She was hilarious, wearing her underwear on top of her pants. You've really gone over the edge. I loved her in this one.

I honestly thought she was prettier than the Angel.

Even she couldn't save this garbage movie about angels. Christian quackery.
