Top CriticAn undemandingly pleasant coming-of-age dramedy.
09/18/08
Top CriticReasonably affecting despite uneven performances and a certain overfondness for familiar stock characters.
09/15/08
The story is thin. The characters are slight. And pretty as the scenery is, well, summer vacation's over.
09/12/08
An often charming romantic drama that outstays its welcome at nearly two hours.
09/12/08
A pleasant coming-of-age story about an enthusiastic young woman who learns how to change her tidy life plan and to go with the flow.

Top CriticThis is a two-hankie weeper that doesn't really earn its tears. But it's a sweet little movie nonetheless.

Despite its predictable story, "Greetings" does not wear out its welcome thanks to the casting of the radiant beauty, Kim Shaw.
