12/19/2017 I love the movie and its stupid and off the wall comedy. See more 01/11/2016 It was a fun movie for me as a kid, but looking back at it, the movie wasn't very good, but had a good story. See more 10/08/2013 The movie info provided is completely wrong. This was the most inaccurate movie I have ever seen. THere were literally like 100+ differences. For example, the main character, Johnny Dorsett, was renamed Andrew and looks completely different than described. He supposed to be a red head with freckles but was a blonde boy with rosy cheeks. See more 08/04/2013 A very funny movie made for everyone to enjoy from a short story, to a black and white movie now to this! Ransom of Red chief will always be my heart See more 07/20/2012 Strange and funny, but weird See more 02/21/2011 Cute movie! Haley Joel Osment at his best and cutest. Great cast, and funny as heck. Good family movie. See more Read all reviews
