Dove Review

“The Reckoning” is a dramatic, romantic film about honoring your heritage, making choices, and following your own heart. Katie Leclerc is outstanding as Katherine Mayfield, formerly known as “Katie” Lapp when an Amish family raised her. She now has inherited her mother’s estate and works with a man named Justin, the director of her foundation, a man she has feelings for. She used to love Daniel Fisher, who she believes is dead. When Daniel unexpectedly returns, her emotions rise and fall. She is very angry with him at first but must decide whether to forgive him for not telling her sooner. Ultimately, she has to decide who she really is and who best completes her: Justin or Daniel?

We are pleased to award our Dove “Family-Approved” Seal to this engaging film.
