Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

texasrehab1 This movie is about forgiveness , the feeling for another needs which leads to helping , without expecting anything in return Mr Redford once again played his role like no other . He played the character of an understanding man from the country who was grief stricken and lived with a hurt soul which needed healing and compassion . Jennifer Lopez , in my opinion one of the best performers around , she is a natural , phenomenal actress which helped bring closure to his wounds.All the characters carried some type of minor wounds and all the characters worked toghter in the movie and reached tolerance They accepted each other and their beliefs even though they had their differences . Each one of the characters had to conquer what was holding them from truly living and with time they all were successful Morgan Freeman has always been one of my favorite actors. He has always brought deep intelligence , self control and courage into his character. His compassion always seems to shine thru as most awe- inspiring actors do. His bear attack created a trauma which required forgiveness of an animal , which was a bear. There was something magnetic about the bear , and he was entertaining.

Jerghal Why oh why did I watch it? I should have known: a Lasse Hallström film... This film is about learning to forgive people for their past sins and to forgive yourself for your own mistakes yada yada yada...watch the trailer or better yet, read the synopsis. It'll save you 108 mins of your life. The layer of emo-goo is laying on so thick that the slow moving plot almost gets stuck in it. If you've seen more than 50 movies in your life you've probably at least seen one of these. Unless you like seeing the same crap regurgitated over and over again I'd suggest you spend your time watching something you haven't seen before.

chriscsugaree robert redford is such a great actor. but someone point out any movie where jennifer lopez was in any danger of being nominated for an academy award! this was terrible and a formula movie that i only watched because of my respect for redford. jennifer lopez is a terrible actress. hell, even calling her an actress is an insult to all actors. there is fame, and there is talent. talent's shadow has never fallen on miss lopez. she should go back to bad singing. and with all due respect mr redford, read the script first and do not sign onto any more badly written movies like this. you are better than this badly written, formula trash... did this movie even have a writer? a 1 rating is too kind.

Prabhakaran So Its a story about forgiveness. Its about how Einar (Redford) tries to forgive his daughter-in-law Jean (Jennifer Lopez). The story happens in a hillside village where a bear that hit Einar's close friend Mitch (Morgan Freeman) once and wounded him badly. All these have something intertwined between them. Fate. Forgiveness.I liked this movie's tone. It is not compelling anything to the audience. No overdone or dramatized emotions. No tear-filling performances. But different ones. Simple family emotions. To this simple story this gives a feeling that 'nothing happened' at all. But that's what life is for most of us. Nothing happened but everything is changed thereafter.Morgan Freeman (e.g. moments before the bear),Robert Redford, Becca Gardner, Jennifer Lopez.. sorted order of likable performances. If you liked the Director's earlier movies then there is a good chance that you would like this movie. I liked the director's narration style. Its a very under-toned style. That makes it impossible to forget the characters for me. For you ? Watch and find out.
