Rex Reed Observer Honest and relevant, intense and riveting, it's a cause for rejoicing. Dec 20, 2005 Full Review Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times 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 Dec 15, 2005 Full Review Richard Roeper Ebert & Roeper It's an utter mess, I don't know what it was about, it drove me crazy. Nov 21, 2005 Full Review Norm Schrager Filmcritic.com 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 Feb 25, 2006 Full Review Chuck Wilson L.A. Weekly [The film] moves slowly and deflates completely when the over-hyped family secret turns out to be a dramatic dud. Dec 15, 2005 Full Review Tony Medley tonymedley.com 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 Dec 8, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member 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. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member A very sweet film about family reconciliation Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Too much going on in one film, it was hard to keep up with at times. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
