Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens For whatever reason, it seems that creative independent filmmakers like Morgan J. Freeman have a knack for turning out films that, for the most part, speak to the heart, the conscience, the average Joe.

Audience Member Oengagerande och tråkig film. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Hooked me at the start, and had plenty of heart. But halfway through it started to get pointless/repetitive. The ending did not provide enough closure. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Ugh! This movie was really good until the ending! What a way to RUIN a good movie! So disappointing :( Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Simply wonderful. A heartwarming story about pure and simple love. The cynic in all of us just can't believe what we see on the screen, although the innocence of love that is hidden way back somewhere inside of all of us hopes that it could be true. You have to see this and then you will know what I mean. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Pic relies too heavily on the undeniable adorableness of its diminutive star, but Freeman's uncompromising straight-ahead approach manages to cut through a good bit of the schmaltz. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
