I had absolutely zero sympathy for Lauren Graham's character in the end
Spoilers ahead, obviously.
I am sorry, but you're a grown woman. If you're stupid enough to believe any random guy who writes a book claiming to speak directly to God... you deserve to feel like a total idiot when he reveals he was lying all along. Because you ARE an idiot. Religious or not, how could you be so gullible to believe what just ANYONE tells you?
I went into this movie with no idea what it was going to be about and I must say I was actually very disappointed to see Jeff Daniels in a steaming pile of sentimental crap like this. I don't know much about Jeff Daniels, but he's made quite a few movies that I do enjoy and I no longer look at him the same way.
