I can not believe how amazing Expecting Amish was ; actually, it was in fact outstanding. Expecting Amish, wow I could not believe how emotional I got by the end especially when she followed her heart and left Samuel and ran off to Josh. It was very interesting and extremely entertaining.It was filled with such drama as the characters emotions and the dramatic situations. In my opinion, no one could have put the movie together any better than the original. I would not change a single thing. I highly recommend this to any one who enjoys classic drama movies. The way it is portrayed through the "Olden ways" to the new way of life for Hannah. It definitely deserved 10/10

Despite the reviews by others , I loved this movie and I hope they make another movie on Expecting Amish. This movie was very entertaining and I would give it a 10/10. Personally, I would watch this movie again. I recommend this to everyone who enjoys Drama and teen romances plus comedies. The choice of characters were amazing and i hope that if they were to make a number 2 of this movie , they would still be the characters chosen. Expecting Amish is full of : mixed emotion, comedy , romance and a continuance of drama throughout the movie. I do not think it could have been improved from the story line and the settings to the great costume designs .

First of all, a group of, apparently wealthy, Amish teenagers easily adapted into the pop culture in a very short period even drinking, going into clubs, buying revealing clothes, having a guy drive them home late into the night but worst of all, staying over a boy's home? Oh, come on.Second, the movie seems to be portraying the Amish culture in this bad light. And at the same time, paints the modern society in such a good light.Third, I just don't like how no one notices the wrong in what Hannah has done: She cheated. And she just doesn't seem the least guilty about her premarital affair.Fourth, Josh. Can someone really meet a very "perfect" guy in a matter of days who will "love" them so much that he would ask them to leave everything they know? (He is so "perfect" that he'll seduce a girl but would not use birth control.) On the same note, does love really come that fast? Last time I checked, young couples who get married too early are more likely to get divorced.

Although it might seem this is yet another TV movie about the Amish, for some reason they are endlessly fascinating a subject matter for TV. A group of young Amish people take a trip to LA to see the big city and decide it this is the life they want. No wonder you sometimes see Amish walking around Times Square. Anyway a sort of betrothed girl falls in love there. At first it seems like a light hearted comedy about their experiences with electronics and modern appliances and the big city but things turn more serious when she gets pregnant by her new LA boyfriend hence the title Expecting Amish. AJ Michalka isn't too beautiful so she looks quite okay and believable in the part. Her girlfriends seem a little skanky too fast when they don their city outfits. Her new boyfriend is played by Jesse McCartney who still looks a bit young to knock someone up. The Amish boyfriend is played by Jean Luc Bilodeau of Baby Daddy and he acts serious enough but why he would be such a doormat seems a bit strange. The shunning seems a bit over the top since they were given a chance to go to see the big city anyway. Brian Krause as the father looks a bit silly with the pasted on beard.Overall worth a watch for fans of Amish culture clash movies.
