Honest and relevant, intense and riveting, it's a cause for rejoicing.

Bujold anchors the film and brings to it a crucial sense of multiple levels. She and Fletcher, although seen only in flashbacks as Esther, lend crucial support to Brenner, as do others. There's more to Finding Home than may meet the eye.

Rated: 3.5/5

It's an utter mess, I don't know what it was about, it drove me crazy.

Thomas Wolfe may have been right when he said you can't go home again. But, in this case, you really shouldn't.

Rated: 1.5/5

L.A. Weekly

[The film] moves slowly and deflates completely when the over-hyped family secret turns out to be a dramatic dud.

Captivating cinematography by Jeffrey Seckendorf and a charming performance by the still beautiful Genvieve Bujold highlight a multi-tiered love story inside a delightful mystery.

Rated: 8/10

When I first watch the scene that Amanda was cut and bled by the hand of Dave, I thought he cut her for a blood sacrifice ritual and that made me getting more and more excited. (I know the actor who starred Dave from Supernatural which is why I thought about something supernatural). Anyway, the movie is good. That guy turned out to be a very nice guy and it was a big surprise to me.

I LOVED THIS FILM I loved this movie, (I plan to elaborate more soon). Do not miss out on seeing it, just because of some very shallow minded reviews.

I liked this movie a lot. Some of the acting from the female leads was iffy, to put it mildly, which is why I only gave it 3.5.

Even though the acting is not that good this movie still was pleasurable. Maine is beautiful. Definitely have to go there someday. A lot of drama in this movie.

Too much going on in one film, it was hard to keep up with at times.
