CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

eyoremeup This is a gentle, simple film, based on true events, about honest people with kind hearts working together as a community. As such, it is not a "blockbuster". It does not have any special effects, violence, nudity, or action - other than some well orchestrated crowd scenes and use of a couple of helicopters. Therefore, it seems to have disappointed one or two reviewers.However, their disappointment speaks more to their unrealistic expectations of the film, rather than any failings of its creators to effectively tell their story - which they do with competence, heart, and production values appropriate to the material.Personally, I do NOT believe in God (or any other higher power), and I am usually irritated (at best) and enraged (at worst) by people with religious "faith" imposing their beliefs on all and sundry. However, I found nothing offensive or preachy in this film.The film depicts real people who DO have faith, and as far as I can tell it does so honestly, and with no agenda other than telling THEIR story. I didn't at any time feel that I was being subtly coerced into following their beliefs. Simply observing them interacting with each other in their own way. Yes, every one in it seemed to be a very good, kind-hearted person, and they no doubt attribute that to their faith. And in some respects so do I - not because I share their religious beliefs, but because I recognise their humanity, which is compatible with my own.I was moved by the kindness and selflessness of the people depicted, and the film successfully drew me in to share their fears, doubts, and ultimate relief. As a non-believer I don't begrudge them their joy. I personally think they got lucky - most people don't - and their good luck would naturally seem to them like the intervention of a benign and loving God. And maybe they're right about that. I can't disprove his existence. But my doubts about his existence are as strong as their (equally unprovable) faith.But none of that matters. In this instance, no one was harmed by the religion. A family was reunited, and during the time the boy was missing their "faith" kept them strong and gave them some comfort. And no doubt the kindness of the community was at least in part due to the religious connection between them all.So, the film kept me interested and invested throughout, I cared about the characters; I cared about the outcome; I was never bored; I was never distracted by irritation over the religious content. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed it. For what it was. A pleasant little TV movie, well-made, well acted, and with a happy ending. Sometimes that's all I need.

discarn8 This is a good clean family movie. The storyline is thought provoking, suspenseful and touching all at once. The producer does a wonderful job of using the disappearance of an adorable two year old boy, in the midst of one family's hustle and bustle. The sudden interruption in their daily routine causes not only them - but the entire community - to pause, call upon God and reflect on the important things in life. All done without nudity, cussing or drugs. But..... it would have been even better if the genius filming it would have spent another $100 for a decent camera tripod. The camera nauseatingly bounces all over like they're filming in a heard of buffalo, making over half of the movie unwatchable. A sad way to ruin what could have been a good film.Storyline: 6 Quality: 3

bonniebengal Good Grief! I was a blubbery mess by the time this movie was over! What a great Christian film, and a great family film. There aren't enough of those out there. Don't miss this, and don't listen to people giving it a low rating because God is mentioned. This is a must see. It's about putting God and your family before everything else. To the person who said it's not believable, It's based on a true story, so obviously believable. There is a whole town as eye witnesses. It also shows how a community will show up to help a family in need. Please don't pass this by just because this family turned to the Lord in their greatest time of need. I know I certainly did. Many people do. They also wrote a book about it called Our Way Home which has a lot more detail. Highly recommend for families to watch this and remember the most valuable thing we have is...each other.

msestes-167-739641 This was a wonderful movie and showed the example that God wants us to love our neighbors. We are to be God's hands and feet and that's what these neighbors did. I don't understand the previous reviewer who said that he and his wife sat down on a Saturday night thinking that the film would be action, drama, or comedy. He was annoyed that this kind of film is allowed in the main-stream and that such a film can be put upon so many innocent viewers. First of all, are you really an innocent viewer? Didn't you read a synopsis of the movie before you rented/watched it? My husband and I always do that to see if we're interested. If you don't like the synopsis, then I suggest you don't watch it. But you are mistaken when you say that the film was put upon you. You chose to view it obviously without checking out the content of the film. As far as your comment about the film being "allowed in the main-stream", when did you become judge and juror of what films should be allowed to be viewed? The last I heard the USA was a free country and we are allowed to view any movie we want. I would much rather see this type of heart-warming movie than a gory, violent, full of vulgarity sort of movie. And the story is most believable; God performs miracles everyday. This movie was not an experience in religion, but a story of hope, faith, and dependence upon Our Creator, God. And yes, I am a devout Christian who believes that God wants us to love Him with all our hearts and love thy neighbor as thyself. And that's what these neighbors did. If I was unfortunate enough to be in such a situation, I would want neighbors like these to be here for me. As God's creation, we have free-will to choose Him and His love or reject it. I pray that you will not reject it. The joy of knowing God is too extraordinary for description! Peace and Grace to you and your wife.
