Irish American, Tom Murphy, is the first in his family to go to Ireland. His family sees this as an opportunity to marry "his own kind" so he must choose between his family's expectations and what his heart really wants.[3]
The film received mixed reviews upon release.
Lee Hazell of VultureHound.cok felt that the low budget and film style lacked discipline and production quality.[4] George Heymont of The Huffington Post felt it had strong comedic moments and was cleverly written.[5] Drew Hunt of the Chicago Reader wrote: The cliché dialogue, stereotypical characters, and cheesy, G-rated humor belong in a sitcom.[6]
