Dove Review

In this day and age there are many topics that need to be approached with teenagers. This is definitely a movie that will have an impact on the family discussions. “Only Once” brings to life the the every day pressures of High School life for teens.

This movie is one that should be watched by teens and parents together. Teenage or any unmarried sexual relationship is not condoned but this movie shows the reality of the situation. Hopefully this will help open the lines of communication between teens and adults regarding adolescent pregnancy. According to the film one million happen each year in America.

Dove awards this film the Dove “Family-Approved” Seal for 12+ .
