Austin Chronicle Rated: 1/5 Apr 14, 2012 Full Review Marjorie Baumgarten Austin Chronicle The filmmaking is lugubrious and heavy-handed, and the dramatic arc stagnant and airless. Rated: 1/5 Apr 13, 2012 Full Review Mark Feeney Boston Globe "October Baby" looks and feels like a Lifetime movie waiting not to happen. Rated: 1/4 Apr 12, 2012 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com A film that wears its faith on its sleeves yet leaves enough room at the table for all who choose to join in. Rated: 3.5/4.0 Sep 18, 2020 Full Review Megan Basham WORLD The Erwins get the biggest thing right: telling Hannah's story-and just Hannah's story-simply and sincerely. Jun 25, 2018 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews A well-intentioned yet hopelessly ineffective drama... Rated: 1.5/4 Jul 28, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

Joshua W There were a lot of corny moments to this movie, but overall it was a really good film. I'd imagine the low critic rating is because of the pro-life aspect, but this is a very enjoyable and touching movie. Yes, there are moments to roll your eyes at, but as a whole, this movie worked. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I don’t really remember ever giving any movie this high of a rating but the story in this is really amazing Everyone out there needs to watch this James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas, May 24, 2023 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/24/23 Full Review simonomis I'm still in love with this movie! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/30/22 Full Review lance k Quirky and really good. John Schneider plays the control freak dad well. Deals with the movie topic well. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member As a Christian believer~I think this is probably the best movie I have seen on Pure Flix. The acting is real, the topic sensitive but it is full of the Spirit, full of love and honesty, integrity, complex relationships and sorting out difficult, challenging feelings. But it was done beautifully. It's for a more mature audience and I am not going to elaborate further. I will touch your heart and soul! ❤ That said, worldly people won't 'get it'. (jmo) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I loved the purpose of the movie which was to teach us to forgive those who have hurt us. This movie is very close to my heart. An Original and very valuable lesson. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
