Tom Keogh Seattle Times There's a sense of unstructured play about "Different Drummers," a kind of ambling from one whimsical activity to the next without much regard for following rules of tidy, traditional storytelling. Rated: 3/4 Mar 13, 2014 Full Review Josh Terry Deseret News (Salt Lake City) The simple problem with Different Drummers is that it is playing out of its league.

tony h It could possibly have been a pretty good film, but as it is, it's barely watchable, as it's far too cheesy and childish. Maybe it was meant to be a kiddies' film after all? Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member What a lovely tender and warm movie. Great for the family Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member This was an excellent film! Great child actors, beautiful story, and well written. Not the ending I expected. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Very touching movie. Inspirational story. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Bad acting and bad scripting make this earnest attempt at a wholesome depiction of late childhood unintentionally laughable on multiple occasions. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
