That was an excellent one.

Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

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

This film was ridiculous! I hope Guttenburg was paid all his money upfront. The parents of a boy stuck down a well, continuously leave the site to go off and argue - continuously. Just when you think the dopey mother would shut up about what she thinks her almost divorced husband is guilty of, she starts up again and again and again. There is one segment of almost five minutes when they both (the mother could do it herself?) run up to the house to get a device so their drowning child can breath underwater and they stand in the attic for ages arguing interminably. Like that would happen! This mother leaves the well side all the time. No mother would. All ends well however, when the child who has drowned, is rescued and brought back to life by his father who has finally decided to spend some time with his son. And he (Guttenburg) and his dopey wife decide to try again, she grinning like she never hated his guts. Awful!

Could have been a good movie but I was hoping the kid in the well would die because he was so irritating and such a terrible "actor". The kid destroyed this movie. The kid talked like a 2 year old spoiled brat and I hoped the well would collapse. The boys mother was almost as bad and Guttenberg was the only one that had an ounce of ability. The other guy is almost as bad as the kid. Smartest thing they did was send down the toy truck in to the well to keep the kid quiet, his voice and baby talk was worse than finger nails on the chalk board. Only thing that could have made the movie better is if his mother fell in with him. The grandfather was probably the best actor in the movie, he didn't speak too much and sound like a complete idiot.

Are you on drugs or something? This has to be one of the worst films ever made. Poor acting combined with a stupid story makes this 90 minutes wasted of your life...absolutely laughable at times.The kid who falls down the hole should be left there for one of the worst acting performances of all time. The fireman trying to rescue the boy was like an American version of Frank Spencer, all that was missing was the beret and rain mac.The arguing parents have the solution, by sending the toy car down the hole to amuse the stranded lad...they would have been better sending down a "beginners guide to acting" book.View this movie, only if you want a good laugh.

This film is stunning, and is an award winner. It has the feel of a fantasy, in the midst of Michael's dark secret. There is denial in the midst of a real-life tragedy. This cannot be happening, but it is. Will the past keep two people from being freed in the present? Will a mother unlock the secrets that keep her from happiness? Will a father learn to stop running, and stay with the woman and son that he loves? Will a family be rescued?You have to see this movie to savor the richness of genuine love. The road to life is sometimes laden with great difficulty, but is it worth the effort to overcome and experience the things that are cherished in life's walk? The film is riddled with many questions, but its ending provides much introspection.Well done, and a Steve Guttenberg triumph beyond any cocoon. I rank this film a 10 out of 10. If you let out all of the stops, you will be able to release all of your emotions, and you will be able to appreciate the essence of life. Yes, stop and smell the roses.
