Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

HobbitHole This third installment of the Sarah, Plain and Tall series exceeds television standards of today while not being some boring, laugh track filled, 1950's television show. The values of a family and unconditional love in spite of difficulties in relationships is priceless. Glenn Close and Christopher Walken again do a great job of playing a couple committed to each other and to their children (amazing in these days of every family member for themselves)! As an added treat, Jack Palance turns in a fine performance. This is a man that Bette Davis insisted play in his first starring role as a bad guy. It's fitting that he plays a guy who was a bad father, but figures that he should make that right before his time on earth is done.Two former 'bad guy' actors, show that maybe Hollywood should stop type casting actors and allow them to explore other sides. Walken and Palance turn in heart-warming performances, even as they initially clash with each other due to their lack of relationship.If you want to see a great story that the whole family can enjoy, check this one out. If you want a typical scary Walken picture, this one's not for you.
gazzo-2 I think anytime you cast Jack Palance as Christopher Walken's father, throw in Glenn Close as the wife and Haley 'I see Dead People' Osment's kid sister into the mix-you have a pretty inspired set of castings.I enjoyed also how the two kids in the first couple shows were brought back here-so nice to see the girl as a nurse and the boy as a young farmer. It's believable and well done, it's also the only things that either actor had done for some time, the transition to adulthood from kid actor is notoriously hard.Some of the snowstorm contrivances were sheer Hollywood-but don't be fooled, there's a lotta heart and fine acting to go around here. The show never loses sight of it's ideals or center.***
KimAC5 I had borrowed the three Sarah movies from a friend, and had watched them while sick in bed during one weekend. I thoroughly enjoyed every one of them. I enjoyed how the last movie gave a glimpse of what Caleb and his sister were like when they grew up. In addition, I liked the carry-through of the "Billy-boy" song that first was heard during the credits of the first movie, the title "Sarah, Plain and Tall." However, the one thing in Winter's End that I didn't like was the youngest daughter. She was a very cute little girl, but she just had too much spirit and looked like a brat compared to the other kids, even compared to talkative but still good-natured Caleb when he was younger.
