|
Well produced, great story line, full of emotion, poignant ending. Main characters exhibit strong moral character. Christianity is respected. Except for a questionable scene with boys checking out a woman's bosom, great family movie. |

Favorable responses with strong reactions to the mature themes. "It moved along, not fast or slow, but just right to keep you interested." "It was sad for me to watch some parts." "It made us realize how lucky we are." "Looked like real life." |
