Happy Weekend, Friends! Are you ready to *take a shot* at the new movie premieres?
This Saturday night, Great American Family premieres their third film from the Great American Pure Flix library, Nothing is Impossible. This is an ideal movie for those who enjoy faith-based movies and basketball. I've seen this family-friendly film, and if you like, you can read my review below.
The Hallmark Channel will premiere its third Summer Nights movie, A Costa Rican Wedding, on Saturday night. This looks like a fun tropical adventure starring two well-known Hallmark actors; however, before watching, please be sure to read Maria's review below.

Storyline: Scott Beck's life has not gone according to plan. Working as a janitor at the high school where he was once the star of the basketball team, he's dealing with an ailing father, a busted truck, and memories of Ryan, the girl he loved long ago. Opportunity soon arises when Ryan, now the owner of the Knoxville Silver Knights, decides to hold open tryouts. Scott tries to make the impossible happen by not only making the team, but getting back the woman he loves.
Movie Review:
π Nothing is Impossible – Great American Pure Flix scores with another inspirational film! This movie delves into reflection, regret, and redemption. If you’ve ever seen a Christian film, like ‘God’s Not Dead,’ then you likely recognize the star of “Nothing is Impossible,” David A.R. White.
In “Nothing is Impossible,” David plays Scott Beck, who is fairly low on life and his future until he realizes he might have a second chance at two of his biggest dreams. Rediscovering his faith in God also plays a pivotal role in Scott overcoming past failures.
If you’ve ever watched the Soap Opera, “Days of Our Lives,” then you may recognize David’s co-star, Nadia Bjorlin (who has played Chloe Lane on and off since 1999).
“Nothing is Impossible” is a sports-themed, faith-based movie that will inspire and challenge its viewers to follow the path God has set before them. You’ll find yourself cheering Scott Beck on as he’s determined to pursue his life’s goals.
My family and I enjoyed this uplifting film and its inspiring message. ~Net

Storyline: A clumsy maid of honor (Fish) gets help from her handsome nemesis (Russell) when things go awry at her best friend’s Costa Rican wedding.
Movie Review:
☀ A Costa Rican Wedding has a mention of a gay couple. The couple is never shown, but they are confirmed to be in the background. Terribly disappointing. -Maria
