This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The acting in this movie is really good.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

This movie illustrates God's way of bringing faith-filled believers in Christ together in relationship. It is true, God's ways of bringing a couple together work and those ways are higher than our ways. I know true believing people who were obedient to The Lord and were brought together by God in unique and exquisite ways only our Creator can do.

This movie wants to teach teens what the bible says - that there are certain acts that are sacred. However, it does this in a totally unrealistic portrayal of American high school, not to mention not actually focusing on issues that teens face. It shows nothing of how a Christian teen of the noughties would deal with the dating scene, with sex, with raunchy culture, with porn, with peer pressure. In the instances that the film has a chance to even attempt to do that, it glosses over them. A teenage girl is pressured into sex with her boyfriend - that's not a Christian issue - that's an issue that EVERY American teen faces. And the message the film sends? Kissing is bad. The title character finds herself the subject of rumors of her kissing a boy. Again, this is glossed over. Girls in American high schools find far worse rumors spread over them, oftentimes for far less. And the film doesn't address this at all.If the message is that saving yourself is the best thing for you and your partner, ignoring the realities of American high school is not the way to do it. Show this film to any American high school and kids will snicker through the entire thing. It's not about kids of noughties or the nineties. It's about kids from 1954. Tell a more modern story, and the message - though not modern - might just stick.

Corny yet sweet. I totally understand their message of no sex before marriage but I think the "no kissing" idea and that the first kiss is going to be a gift for your husband on your wedding night- I think thats a little too ridiculous and 99% of the kids of today are not going to follow that. They might even miss the whole message of the movie because they view that statement as absurd. It also has no biblical merit or passage that I know of where you cant kiss or date. It sounds like a man-made idea/rule. I think when Pamela asked: "how do I meet my future husband if I cant date" -was a very realistic question. She also asked her dad to give her a passage from the bible that forbid dating. I don't think dad had any ammunition in that argument. He pretty much gave her a "because I'm your father" kind of an answer. She was right in her question and I think most kids watching that film would shake their head at the absurdity that you cant date your future spouse. It struck me as odd that she couldn't go to a basketball game with her friends and that guy- as a group- but yet it was OK with her dad for her to leave with his employee and go to the wilderness to look at rock formations all by themselves. Think about it, she had more chance of getting laid out there in the wilderness, with just he and her there, than she did by going to a basketball game with her friends and a guy and a huge crowd..... That rock formation scene really contradicted the whole theme of the movie, no dating, no boys. Remember when she asked if they could go to the ball game as friends and he shot her this look like "Uh No!!" you cant do that either. Yet she goes off alone with this guy to look at rocks. I found it odd that dad always talked in this preacher voice. What dad talks like that all the time? It seemed this movie had the right intentions but should have showed an alternative to being told no and then going upstairs where she is now sad and alone. I think if the writers would have inserted some alternative for her such as having friends over or getting together at Christian events it would have portrayed a better picture than a sad, bored, girl whose Christian beliefs have prevented her from having any type of fun and here she sits lonely on her bed sad and depressed. It paints the Chrisitan life as one of loneliness. This movie looked like it was from the 1980's. The guys hair styles were dead-on to the hairstyles of 1986. Even the production credits looked "old timey" I wonder if this movie was made in the 80's but not released until 1998?Lastly I think they could have left out the line that the dad said "Do you know what a Christian Film Library is"? I laughed out loud at the absurdity of that sentence. Its like asking "do you know how a boiled egg is cooked"?I think its the corny, cheesy, lines like this that turn people away from watching more Christian films. Most people view Christian films as lame and lacking in the writing with no suspense or drama. I think a lot people are hungry for a Christian movie but yet are bored with the lameness and blandness of Christian movies like this. Nothing against the Christian message, I just mean Christian films could be more intelligently written to appeal to the youth that are growing up in the 21st century. This isn't Amish country 1930. We can pretty much understand what a Christian Film Library is there's no need to ask if we know what it means. By the way I am a Christian so I am not trying to demean the message, just commenting on the way it was presented and how it was missing the mark in some ways.

This is a Christian film and is promoted that way. The story is about a teenager named Pamela who likes a young man and her personal turmoil of peer pressure as well as the normal pressures that teens put on their own personal beings. The young man knows of her beliefs and desires, but he still pushes for his own personal desires without carrying for her feelings.My 12 year old son watched this movie just recently and felt that it did not pertain to the real world of today (movie was made in 1998), but my wife explained the many different decisions that one must make when deciding on a sexual relationship.We highly recommend this film to any parent, Christian or not, simply to help open the doors for life altering discussions.
