I read a few reviews before deciding this may be a worthwhile watch. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. Whilst there is no avoiding the messages coming from this film. Like do unto others etc., the way this message of good over sadness and some evil gets lost in a sea of sugar coated sentimental twaddle. At best, this is a film for a lazy Sunday afternoon. Uncomplicated in the extreme. Predictable and shallow. The best line in the film is at the funeral of Christian Ganiere's character when Frank, having been thanked by the boy's mother for attending crassly says " I wouldn't have missed it for the world". Who writes that stuff. If you like fluffy animals and candy floss, and you are twelve years old, this is the film for you.
