The Bouquet movie is a nine, because it is well written, directed and performed! This is a heartwarming movie and I really enjoyed it. I am going to buy another copy of this for my mother. As another reviewer stated, this film does not have any bad elements in it. The Bouquet has a lot in it for adults as well as children, but it is non-rated. This is a great example of how you can make a wonderful film for adults without adding vulgar language and immoral scenes.Please, movie makers, learn from how this movie was made. Also, know that many of us "adults" are decent people, who do not want garbage thrown into our movies! I am a Christian man and it is my prayer, that Christians, as well as people of other faiths, will request that more wholesome, non-rated movies be made. I really encourage others to buy and enjoy the Bouquet movie!

I'm not a big writer, but I want to recommend this movie to others. The Bouquet movie is a wonderful film, that shows the problems that many of us are challenged with. Most folks can relate to some of the situations in the Bouquet movie.This was a very well written and directed movie. The story is about a family that struggles with members, who are either self-centered or jealous of others. As a result of their tunnel vision, two sisters miss a special Easter dinner with their parents. The parents are sad that their girls are not with them during their Easter celebration. The only company that they have is a young man, who is a special friend to them. The guy really loves these folks and they are like parents to him.After their special meal, the elderly man has a heart attack and dies. The rest of the movie shows how the daughters grieve and are so sorry that they missed the last Easter with their dad. Then, the movie shows how the daughters help their mother in restoring a failing floral business. The flower business means a lot to the mom, so the daughters try to get along and help their mother. This is a process of healing in many ways!The story gets happier as the family overcome past misunderstandings and jealousy. There is, also, a little fun romance for the young women, as special friends help them to make the floral business a success. This movie shows how people of different cultures and backgrounds can help one another in sweet ways. Christian love is shown in this movie. I give Bouquet a "9" because of this. However, I would like to see movie makers be bolder about why genuine Christians are loving. Jesus makes us this way! Everyone who repents to God of his sins and ask Jesus into his heart to become his Lord and Savior, can lead a victorious, joyful life. Hallelujah!

I'm a tough movie grader, so when I give a film a "9", it's a great picture! Like a previous reviewer, I am thankful to the writer and producer of Bouquet for making this a non-rated film. Why do many movie makers think that we want PG, PG-13 an R rated movies, that are full of either obscenity, nudity or excessive violence? Yes, I concur with another reviewer about this negative situation. I am very pleased that Bouquet does not have junk in it that would make it the "child warning" ratings! I, also, want to give movie producers the plea to make more decent movies. I'd love to see more non-rated movies on the market.We especially need some more Christmas movies that convey the real meaning of Christmas. It's about Christ, the Savior, not about fictitious Santa Claus, Elves, or other goofiness. Please tell your children and grandchildren the real meaning of Christmas. Give them a gift that lasts forever!Okay, now back to the Bouquet movie... I won't tell you the story details, but it's a winning film!

Terri Benton (Kristy Swanson) is a busy professional in the city who suddenly gets let go. The family flower business back home is failing. Then her father dies leaving her mother Bonnie (Nicola Cavendish) alone. She and her social activist sister Mandy Benton (Alberta Mayne) have to return home to help out. Family friend reverend John (Danny Glover) tells them the truth. Sam (Michael Shanks) is a guy who's been working at the business. They try to update their business as an alternative to chemical laden grocery store flowers.It's a pretty sweet family movie. It's not anything surprising or big. It starts a little too slowly. The movie needs to gather the family a little sooner. The family relationships are where the drama exists. It's an OK TV movie with a good heart if the viewer has no expectations.
