TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
shead23 Lovely heartwarming film, good pace, simply done but big subject of grief, belief, trust and all the ingredients of life!! Acting very good and not 'cheesy' in any way. A film for all to watch, clean, good straight forward storyline with a little magic thrown in. Don't know why this has a low rating as all reviews are very good??? The learning curve for a grieving dad who blames himself for his son's death and his relationship with his wife is delivered at a good believable pace. With a need to feel empathy for him and the grieving mother is well delivered so the ongoing happenings are a joy to you, the viewer, and you share the storyline. It needs at least an 8.5. Albeit there are only 5 reviews to date I know and 'I believe' you will enjoy!!!!.
mrpeace The Lamp is a wonderful, heart-warming movie for the whole family. . Louis Gossett Jr. is one of the greatest actors out there! I can relate to this movie I lost my son in 2007 to Leukemia he was 17. I kind of died inside and after watching this movie I can see I can not only change my life I could make someone else's life better. If you have a little imagination and want to see a good move this one is the Lamp to light your way! When you think your life has changed so drastically that nothing will ever make you happy again, you discover that God's plan, while different from yours, is always perfect if you "Just Believe"!
fourwinds4 ahhh! One of those wonderful movies that just makes you feel good... and reminds you that the most important things in life are people and animals....you know... LoveWell written, good acting... particularly from Louis Gossett Jnr & L. Scott Caldwell but also from the two main characters and rest of the cast. Predictable? Perhaps... but didn't matter at all...The addition of Rachel's character is inspired and the young actress who plays her does a sterling job. The movie has a tangible "magical" quality throughout and does just what it set out to do..... remind us all to believe. Wonderful! thank you!
Johnny Pineda A well made movie with the right cast to portray it. The familiar faces of the experienced cast immediately draws you in and makes you want to find out what they'll have to say.An often-overlooked perspective from a child helps to open someone's eyes and leads toward solutions. Even the dog is able to get through with solutions where humans couldn't. The premise of the lesson is apparent throughout, but you don't realize until the end.At times the story is predictable, but still keeps you looking for the twist. It does not disappoint. This is definitely a movie to be watched several times and called upon for reference or just to feel good and be reminded.I marked this as having a spoiler since I was granted pre-screening access, but didn't give away details, just generalities. You'll have to wait for it to come out, but be sure to see this one, it's worth everyone's precious time, just believe me!
