Nonureva Really Surprised!
LouHomey From my favorite movies..
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
SnoopyStyle 12 year old Casey Baker (Jordy Benattar) lost her mother 8 years before. Her father Jeffrey (James Gallanders) hides in his work. She's left with her grandfather Charlie (Tom Bosley) often. While Jeffrey is away on a business trip, Charlie has a heart attack but he doesn't want to spend his remaining time dealing with his illness. Dr. Robert Graham (Barclay Hope) may have a clinical trial and Jeffrey can't deal with the possibility of losing Charlie. Dr. Fran Gilford (Cara Pifko) works with Dr. Graham as well as his ex.It's real nice to see Tom Bosley doing work and he looks great in one of his last few movies. He looks sharp. Jordy Benattar is cute and has some spunk to her. They have a nice sweet chemistry together. I would be fine if this movie is only about them. On the other, I found the father rather bland and I don't really feel invested in his relationship with Dr. Gilford. It's a TV movie and it has about that level of production value. I also wish the writing was sharper for Bosley to play with. Little Jordy is able to bring the emotional punch. It's a nice low key family movie.
wopstaff This movie was a movie that I would love to view with my grown children and my grandchildren. Tom Bosley is an excellent actor and the young girl who played Casey was amazing. It was so real watching Casey and her grandpa's closeness as she helped him and learned from him. Our daughter had this closeness with her grandpa, especially when he was sick and taken to the hospital and the doctors said there was no hope and she laid on his bedside and prayed that he would live. And he did for 10 more years. She was only 8 at the time. Taking time for the ones you love is so much more important that working your life away as we did sometimes as parents.
janetleadarnell My family thought Charlie & Me was excellent.It is a family movie and is very touching to the heart. We can't wait till it comes out on DVD so it can be added to our collection. It is very loving when a grandpa steps in and helps be there for grandchild when parent can't. It also is a very bonding movie. I wouldn't change anything. We enjoyed the all of the movie but when she put up the lines from her home to gr-amps home so they could communicate back and forth that was very touching the whole movie was very touching. It is a real tear jerker my child and can relate since his father was never there for him. Grandpa was Casey's her whole world. But however, she needed her father also.
edwagreen We've seen it so many times before. Grandpa is stricken with a severe coronary, but this time the precocious and often obnoxious little girl lies to protect him. She is invariably afraid of the surgery he may have to have to survive. Of course, it turns out that the girl was right and we're supposed to listen to her rather than the physician, the latter played by Barclay Hope, young, with a cold veneer but hungry for love.Grandpa Tom Bosley gives his all to the story, but the writing is so obvious.Despite a surprise ending, we've seen so much of this before. Of course, love doesn't bloom between Grandpa's widower son and the doctor's ex-girl friend.
