Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

smlivingstone-01394 ...to even trust a thing about this movie. I don't believe I've ever seen more relatives, friends and/or the filmmakers themselves try to weight the reviews and ratings for a movie more egregiously than this. Each 10 star review is written to one of two exact same formats, using the exact same style and praising the exact same things about the movie; even one of the reviewer's last name was the same as the family of filmmakers who produced this well meaning but gigantic yawn of a film.Like I said, the film is at least well meaning and inoffensive. If that is all you require for your viewing pleasure, then go for it. But there are enough good films out there, even family and/or Christian oriented ones, to occupy the little time we all have to spend on entertainment. Don't waste a precious 1 hour and 23 minutes of your life on semi- professional movie-making that will leave you scratching your head over the plot and mourning the death of your brain cells.

kcterrell-25046 OK a hundred things wrong with this movie; and a hundred things right. But, in the end everything works out the way everyone wants. The high point of the film is David Carradine, an exceptionally under-rated actor. His character transformation is too sudden, but hey John Ford didn't direct this. There is nice cinematography and good acting all around, backed by a story that is fairly believable and satisfying. Wouldn't watch it again, but didn't feel cheated watching it this time.

suedunkirk This film was shown at our Church's Movie Night and was very well received. Not only was the scenery beautiful, but there were many moral messages shown through several of the characters. The friendship of a young boy with an Idian boy and survival of that relationship through difficulties caused by others was heartwarming. Personality traits of all of us are depicted in the various characters. We are shown that forgiveness is possible in extremely trying situations. There was a broad range of emotions including humorous incidents which added to the content. The music was excellent and added to the tone of the scenes. A few scenes might be a bit too violent for younger viewers.

weeziepepper My Dad and I just watched this movie, he's a pretty big fan of westerns like Lonesome Dove. We were confused at the beginning about the relationships of all the people. We finally figured out the main details (two families at odds with each other for various reasons). David Carradine was good and some of the other actors were OK. The main problem we had was about John (Tim Abell). He gets injured but when they cannot find him they just assume he's dead. What's up with that? I would at least want to find the body for a proper burial. Then the families all just decide to hang out for Christmas time dinner. John's wife doesn't even seem too upset - come on she thinks her husband just died! Starting at about 2/3 of the way into the movie my dad and I kept saying to each other "Where's John?". At the very end we got our answer but by then we didn't really even care. It seems like lots of you really liked the movie and I did like the spiritual messages. It is also a nice family movie. I just was a little annoyed with the John issue. Thanks.
