Audience Member Sweet, slow-paced family film about finding your path. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Was so refreshing to watch a movie without a bunch of explosions and violence and foul language. AND that had an actual plot with a surprising and tear jerking ending. For the 40 and over crowd... drop the kids off to watch "Guardians of the Galaxy" then go home and watch this movie. Believe me, you'll be a lot better off. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Great ending, took forever to get there. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member I recently told a friend about a screenwriter I know who keeps a file of potential scenes. When he hits a rough spot in a new script he looks through the file to find a solution. The cocept for The Gordon Family Tree is great, but I fear the file of potential scenes would be empty by half way through. In addition to a thin story, the score was poorly mixed, in many scenes it overpowered the dialogue. If this were re-edited and remixed into a 45-60 minute short, it could likely win more recognizable film awards. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member I am moved to tears every time I watch this. I worked on this film and am biased- but I seriously cry every time out of the 30 times I've seen it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
