Good movie. Recommend for believers and non-believers alike.
This movie was a pleasant surprise. Ending up watching it on a whim with my sister who loves any movie based on a true story. And, yes, while the film is very heavy-handed with the religious propaganda, it's understandable given the film's circumstances. Truly a very emotionally gripping story led by a truly outstanding performance by Chrissy Metz. Seriously, she carries the film and acts her butt off. The rest of the surprisingly all-star cast play their role well. Would definitely recommend for believers and non-believers alike.

Book Rating
Chrissy Metz stars on the NBC hit show, This is US as Kate Pearson, one of the triplets. If you have never seen this show, you don't need to have, to read this book, but I think you might afterwards. This book chronicles her life from when she was a young child to her life today after making it on such a great show. It goes through her struggles with her weight and being accepted by family as well as outsiders. And her main focus is being happy with the person she is no matter her size or job.

I would categorize this book as a Self-Help Memoir. Chrissy gives explains how she overcame many obstacles in her life and shares these lessons with her readers. She is a strong independent woman, moving her whole life from Gainsville, Florida to Los Angeles, California to pursue her acting career. This was not something that came easy for her and she spent 9 years as a agent helping others with their acting careers before she was able to really start her own.

I could relate to Chrissy in a lot of aspects in this book, her advice is stuff we've all heard before, but her examples of how she applied it to her own circumstances, made the book more relateable to me.

Chrissy Metz is Kate Pearson. She explains this in her book of how the struggles Kate goes through are exactly the issues she had, as if the role was written specifically for her. Chrissy seems very down to earth and a person who you would want to be friends with. I look forward to following her journey on This is US and any other projects she may be involved in.

Chrissy Metz performs her heart out. When she smiles you'll smile and when she cries; your heart will melt. She is the star of the show. (0 more)
In my hubby's opinion, it left his dinner and bed unmade for 3 days. Sorry xxx (0 more)
One of America's well written box sets. It will keep most bottoms stuck to the sofas.
The production team and the cast have delivered a first rate box set drama that will have you goggle eyed and lazy. You will laugh out loud and be left wiping away tears as you come to know and love the many characters.

The show jumps between decades informing you of the characters past and present. I know this can be not only annoying but also confusing. This is not the case in "This is us" Hat off to the production team and writers
