Audience Member Really good and funny family watching movie here recommended James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas September 13, 2023 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/13/23 Full Review kevin w Generic family crowd pleaser, this one's about an orphan trying to find a family to belong to. The strings are ever so apparent throughout this production (which takes out a small bit of time to up the Navy ... okay, it's a lot of time! Yay, Navy!). It's not too offensive to the mind overall, but, er, predictable as all get out. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
