Featured review
A Warm Family Movie
This movie is very much a "Sunday Movie". One that you and the whole family would sit down to watch all cozied up.
It is lovely and quite emotional.
I think it's PG rating does show ever so slightly with some of the humour being a little bit childish. I mean it tends to come from the kids so maybe it was a choice.
The acting was good but nothing to write home about. I really enjoyed the young lead. I thought he was great and made the character believable and likeable.
I think you could watch it. It was pretty good
