Peter Canavese Celluloid Dreams There might've been a good film in the true story that provides the jumping off point, but it's not this badly scripted thriller that plays like a lost episode of Walker, Texas Ranger Rated: 1/4 May 14, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Robert M Good Sunday afternoon movie. Starts off slow but gains your interest if you stick with it. Interesting story and good ending. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/10/24 Full Review Rodriguez F Very enjoyable movie, based off a true story, of corrupt officials taking a hard working family's ranch, well done to the independent filmmakers! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/24 Full Review Pat J I thought this would be a father-daughter relationship movie, then, suddenly, it's a mystery and corruption story. "Inspired by true events," the drama builds and plays out well. The circumstances--an animal rights group destroying peoples lives--isn't so different from a situation in Los Angeles. The writing is solid, the performances are good. Christopher MacDonald is on-board with yet another villain role. But, hey, do what you good at, right? Worth watching. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/24 Full Review All Things Chelsea Incredible!!! I was literally on the edge of my seat. Beautifully shot with an impactful storyline. Must watch! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/10/23 Full Review yens p The corruption plot was pretty implausible, the preachiness against animal protection was over the top, and characters two dimensional. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review georgan g WARNING This was right-wing beliefs wrapped up in a flag. So the (may as well say "deep state") big guys are stealing stock from farmers for a profit??? Backed up by the (fake name to mean humane society) & entire police departments and government officials??? Despicable. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
