CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
stiffrohit That's Great !Its really loved the whole experience and will definitely provided relief. Its so very well work experience in detective agency. I have expressed about very well this detective agency. Its collect the true evidence through surveillance and they are providing highly satisfaction and reliability. They are able to stay for all surveillance, they try to facing the evidence for you. I agree that the concept is unique and the idea behind it is quite good. The story is telling detective agency at the entrance is original, and several case solved through these. That is a good responsible detective agency and easy for contact.
js-592-484449 My daughters (ages 9 & 7), wife, and I truly enjoyed it! Yes, it is a simple plot line, the acting is not going to win awards, but the family friendliness is welcome in our home. We enjoy good old fashioned movies, this one is great to watch on a Sunday afternoon after church or just when you are relaxing.You will read some reviews that pan this show for the acting - though it is not perfect I like it.We rented it and enjoyed it several times over the weekend. If you prefer blood, guts, guns and violence this is not the movie for you. However if you like a bit of suspense, good guys against bad guys and the good guys win, well give it a try.Our family enjoyed it, hope your family will enjoy it too.
Caveman_otr Is it just me?? But this seems to be an untalented rip off of the the Encyclopedia Brown series.. Similar characters, though due to writers limitations, not nearly as good. Even the character relationships tend to be direct rip offs Sam is the junior Detective,, His father happens to be the town detective.. his secretary Lenore is the brawn of the agency.. I think the writers assumed if they went back in time for inspiration, nobody would notice the theft, and their extreme lack of talent..If your kids are interested in detective stories look up the originals Encyclopedia Brown..
ballagher Movie is fun for younger kids. Lots of adventure and mystery. Parents typically end up watching movies with the kids and this one stood out as one of the worst acting performances from most of the characters that we've ever seen. Luckily the kids see past this but I can't help but think the movie would have been so much better if they used real actors. Poor Luke Perry...how his star has diminished. It's almost funny to see him try and do an accent. I don't even think this would warrant being considered a made for TV flick as it's so low budget. Still can't believe we pay for this garbage acting but as long as the kids like it, can't complain too much. Would think kids over 10 would be interested though...a little to simple a story.
