Rex Reed Observer Dec 20, 2005
Honest and relevant, intense and riveting, it's a cause for rejoicing. Go to Full Review
Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times Dec 15, 2005
3.5/5
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. Go to Full Review

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

Thomas Wolfe may have been right when he said you can't go home again. But, in this case, you really shouldn't. Go to Full Review
Chuck Wilson L.A. Weekly Dec 15, 2005
[The film] moves slowly and deflates completely when the over-hyped family secret turns out to be a dramatic dud. Go to Full Review

8/10
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. Go to Full Review

Aug 27, 2015 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. See more Oct 7, 2013 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. See more Dec 7, 2012 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. See more Jun 10, 2012 A very sweet film about family reconciliation See more May 21, 2012 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. See more Jan 28, 2012 Too much going on in one film, it was hard to keep up with at times. See more Read all reviews
