Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
ThiefHott Too much of everything
Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
jeffhaller Can't blame the actors. This movie just has NO DRAMA. You know what is going to happen every second; no surprises. And let that music keep swelling when the oh so happy conclusion is about to arrive.Hey I am happy they found their lost son. But God/Jesus had nothing to do with bringing him home and nothing to do with his getting lost.What about all the families who have a situation like this yet it ends tragically. Guess God just hated them and their kids.This movie is, in the end, unkind and unsympathetic.Poor God. Poor Jesus. They get blamed and credited for all the wrong things.
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.
matt28-2 The way home is a true story about a major event in the Simpkin's family lives and is very well done if i do say so myself. Dean Cain is spectacular and really makes you feel for his character. Lori Edgerman is really good with being a concerned mother but has her occasional over the top accent. Some of the supporting cast is a bit undeveloped and distracting. the highlight of this film is dean in the woods praying for his son to be alright. The pace of the film is well planned out as is the story. the film will pull you into this major event of a struggling family's life i think you will be wanting this to be finding The Way Home to your DVD collection!
