Well, done. Funny, and heart warmimg
lionpapa30 December 2017
The Promise. Is a very well thought out, well written, and wonderful feel good walk down the road of Mackenzie and George Miller's life in a season of time which has one Miller haunted by memories of the past and being afraid to move forward with his future, whule the other Miller just wants a chance to balance the life she has with the life she dreams of. While Mackenzie and her Grandpa George are all each other have after the passing of her parents and her grand mother, she longs for a "normal" life like every other woman dreams of from the time they are little girls: to find her Mr. Right and live happily ever after. But its a bit more complicated than that since Mackenzie made a promise to her grandmother before she passed away to always tske care of and watch over her grandfather. Makimg it worse yet is the fact that Grandpa George would do anything to keep Mackenzie to himself. Together they live, love, laugh, cry and try to find the common ground necessary to survive between the Promise and happily ever after.

Must see feel good family comedy!
justin-spicer239 November 2017
From the beginning to end the film is amazing. There is no other way to put it. You get a feel right away how much heart and soul was poured into making this nearly a decade old project come to life! The leads were drenched with professionalism! Full of friendly and very funny laughable moments! Highly recommend anyone and everyone to watch this film! I can assure you will not be disappointed!

BEAUTIFUL FILM WITH MUCH HEART
advlandvideo14 December 2017
A very promising film that should appeal to any teenager/young adult child, parent or grandparent. All will find a character that they can relate. Humor, heart break, embarrassment, fear, love and forgiveness abound. In addition to a great escape, I think every film is a silent teacher. Here, there is a clear message that a promise is both a sacred social contract and a self-imposed prison. Second, is a solid reminder that while love is great it requires some work. I want to say in closing that it has been an honor to watch the caliber of this company's productions improve.

Wonderful movie

Warning: Spoilers
This story line has a plot! It funny, lots of good clean fun! Very enjoyable through out the movie! The young lady who lost her parents at a young age sure was luck to have those wonderful grandparents to raise her up right! She made a promise to her grandma that she would tend to grandpa, even when he would embarrass the heck out of her! Those were the funny times! The young men that came a courting her was also very interesting! The ending will keep you happy but also better keep your Kleenex close for there are a sad side that goes along with this outstanding show!

Romantic comedy
zeke19477 May 2024
If you like to have your emotions tested, this award winning, independent, Christian film will have you laughing one minute and crying the next! Grandpa Miller is one crusty character you will just love to hate. His granddaughter just wants to live a normal life but grandpa is making that very difficult. The writing, the directing, the chemistry between the actors, the original music are all top notch! And, if you like happy endings, this is the film for you. Take some time to take a journey through the life of two people trying to, one, keep things the same, the other trying to move on. Well worth the journey.
