March 10, 2008Mormon movies could be good if they didn't feel like a bunch of Utah mormons made them, all with the exact same Utah mormon humor. But, I guess they were made by Utah mormons, so go figure.

April 22, 2010I thought this Movie Was SOOOO Super Cute and Really Funny :) :) :)
Loved it :) :) :) it makes me miss the church again I think I am going to start going to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints again I was stupid for leaving to begin with -
October 23, 2007Funny stuff. Right on key with the singles mormon community. But sometimes, it makes you realize all you can do in those awkward situations is just, laugh.

March 3, 2007Mostly only fun for inside jokes and geographical references. Ooh, and cameos, but really a blah movie all and all.

February 8, 2007I'm in it! well, ok, maybe a silhouette of my hands is there for like a second or something. But I was an extra!
Somewhat amusing but still lame. Most of these "mormon movies" are shit-tastic. -

Theirs is a simple and heart-warming story, full of mirth that should charm all but the most cynical. Full Review

[D]oesn't bother being as cloying or preachy as equivalent evangelical Christian movies -- maybe the filmmakers know that the likely audience will already be among the faithful.

It all plays out ... like a high-end John Hughes comedy, a kind of Elder Bueller's Time Out. Full Review

Those unfamiliar with Mormon traditions may find The Singles Ward occasionally bewildering. Full Review

William Arnold, Seattle Post-Intelligencer
There's no conversion effort, much of the writing is genuinely witty and both stars are appealing enough to probably have a good shot at a Hollywood career, if they want one. Full Review

A word of advice to the makers of The Singles Ward: Celebrity cameos do not automatically equal laughs. And neither do cliches, no matter how 'inside' they are. Full Review
