Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

black_rose0997 This movie was in a family movie pack (which had other movies as well) that I got at Wal-Mart, so I wasn't expecting greatness. However, this movie was really bad. THe story isn't an original story either. The acting was terrible and the fact that a father leaves his daughter alone without a babysitter is just appalling.I was hoping for something somewhat decent, but instead got a bland poorly acted movie. I assume little kids might like it, if they're not bored with it, but I think that even kids will find this movie really boring.Hmm, I need ten lines, so I have no idea what more to say that I haven't said already. The movie wasn't good...okay hopefully this will be enough.

vizmofilms Kids loved it. Some of the adult actors were not so good. Most of the kids were believable. Locations were good. Shot in Indiana Has a bear in it that may be scary to some small children. Best to watch with parentsMy kids want to bulid a raft and float down the creek. This was an independent film that the producer's daughter starred in.She did a good job. Special effects were good especially the "HAl 9000" I liked the message of the film. Faith Truth and Couorage.I recommend this film for any school age children. Very good family film.

pmgproducer We watched Lil River Rats last weekend and it was a great movie. My kids 10 and 8 love the movie and thought it was like a movie on the Disney Channel. The boat, river and bear were all very cool and it really looked like a Hollywood movie rather than an independent film. The end of the movie was very suspenseful. There was a lot of work that went into this film and I think it was shot on location in Indiana. We saw the first movie from this filmmaker 587 The Great Train Robbery and it was excellent too. I thought the kid that had the Hal 9000 computer was pretty funny. The water balloon fight was funny too. I wonder how they controlled the helicopters to drop the balloons. The story flowed along very well and all the kids did a great job acting. The sound effects and music were also done very well and added to the movie viewing experience.

pjohnsonfamily My son got me out of bed on Sunday to watch this with him on cable. He had seen it before and wanted me to watch it with him again. I sat down with him and we watched this together, it was a real treat! It was on early on cable before we went to church, it had a good theme for kids, and parents. It was something we could do together. It was a fun family film. Good scenery, and funny parts through out. I liked the kids in the movie and so did he. The bear scenes were funny and scary to him. But the message of the movie he got. He wants to build a raft now. And go looking for treasure, but we don't live near a river so it's the pool in the backyard. I would recommend this movie to any family.
