Good start, but then it gets ruined

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Do you remember how the movie studios tried to palm off Elvis Presley as a real macho racing car driver, who was an instant hit with the girls? Well, that old tried and true formula is dusted off once again, this time to "prove" what a macho person Kenny Rogers is. Te girls can't resist him, and he's fighting, slugging fit, both on and off the track. Well, at least there are no crummy process shots. Instead, clever editing gives the illusion that Rogers is actually out there, braving dangers head on! He can't help but be irresistible to the girls, but he has a heart of gold for these six orphaned kiddies, led by a delightfully nubile whom, of course, Kenny treats as a daughter -- and she likewise regards Kenny in a fatherly light, because she actually wants to meet boys her own age! So this is a movie that tries to have a bit of everything in car chases and comic sheriffs. And the odd thing is, that thanks to all the skills that gone into it making, the movie does succeed. It's agreeably acted, fast paced, has a nice music score, and makes good use of its natural locations. In all, I'd describe the film as familiar, but enjoyable!

Hello,I have sit here now for the past 20 minutes or so, while actually watching Six Pack, and I have written at least 4 different reviews on this movie, but I kept having to delete them and start over because i could just go on and on about how great and timeless this movie was and still is, even today. But after thinking about it over and over, i think I will just say that this movie is indeed a Timeless Classic, with an awesome cast and crew, and especially the little kids, who are just cute as a button (especially Little Harry).I have come to the conclusion that with all that I can say about this movie, very positive reviews, I have now become almost speechless. So I will give the following review with heart and sincerity:Watch This Movie!!!! It is funny, fun, and it'll touch your heart!!! But just watch it!! if you have Never seen this movie, you ought to be ashamed of yourself, and you owe yourself an apology! And if you have never seen it, go now; get off your duff and go rent this movie. Or find an internet movie site and rent it from there and watch it. This movie is Timeless, and I almost money-guarantee you that you will want to watch it again and again! I have No Idea why IMDb has given this outstanding movie only 5.2 stars, but it's evident that someone at IMDb doesn't know wonderful movies when they see them. Thanks for reading!!

KENNY ROGERS is delightful in this charming little film. The kids are great as well adding a lot of humour to the proceedings. You'll probably recognize the young actress who plays Breezy as it is DIANE LANE who has now gone on to become Hollywood A List material with 'The Perfect Storm', 'Murder At 1600', 'Streets of Fire' etc. She is fab in this movie! If you are a fan of 'nice' films, KENNY ROGERS or DIANE LANE you should definately check out 'SIX PACK'.

This is by far the best Kenny Rogers- Anthony Michael Hall collaboration ever in the history of movie making. It was just plain awesome. Just look at the equation Kenny Roger + Six Lovable Children = Pure Entertainment. If you have never seen this movie then you should go lay in the nearest interstate until a semi turns you into road gravy, or at least check it out. That ain't no lie.
