A coming of age story of Moon brought up by his dad in the wilderness until his dad's death. Then the kid must learn about the real world around him the hard way. A little predictable and corny but, OK to watch.

Some kind of modern Tom Sawyer. Nothing exceptional, but good to spend an evening with the family.

ALABAMA MOON is big-hearted and sweet and likable, but it also feels rushed and truncated, as well as uneven in tone.

Rated: 2/5

At every step, director Tim McCanlies grinds the gears in his earnest, but ultimately clunky, adaptation.

Rated: 2/4

NYC Movie Guru

Big-hearted, inspirational and forgivably contrived with just the right amount of poignancy, excitement and comic relief to keep older and younger audiences captivated.
