Growing the Big One // Movie Review

About the Movie:
Radio DJ Emma Silver leads a chic city life in Seattle until she finds out her beloved grandfather has died. Traveling to his farm in quaint Valleyville, Washington to take care of the details, she is stunned to learn her grandfather has left her his farm, along with a sizable amount of debt. To keep the bank from foreclosing, Emma must find a way to raise the money, or face seeing her grandfather’s precious land end up as a parking lot. Following her grandfather’s famed legacy, Emma decides to enter Valleyville’s annual pumpkin growing contest with his prized seeds and grow the world-record biggest gourd. If she can win the grand prize of $50,000, she can save the farm.
With the help of her neighbor, Seth, Emma takes on the challenge, but the two end up cultivating something much more evergreen.


Growing the Big One is a sweet, fun, romantic comedy. I really enjoyed it when I first watched it last fall, and I’ve enjoyed it since then. This is definitely a fun movie to watch during the fall since a lot of it has to do with pumpkins and festivals and all. I will admit though, that the giant pumpkins are pretty fake looking, but it is still a really fun movie! :)


I give this movie 8 out of 10 R's
