filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Adam Jozsa How to make 90 minutes out of getting a kid out of a pit? Ask the director. I've seen it on TV and had nothing better to watch. It was so annoying that at some point it became funny. Spoiler Alert! The obstacles of getting the kid out were GOD AWFUL, seriously. If you want to rescue someone, you do it in 10 minutes. Horrible and hilarious.The story was so badly written, they had to make a 5 minutes scene in one and a half hour. I honestly think you need real talent to make such an awful film.

lord-of-lichtenfels I agree with most of the previous comments: This movie is bad. I bought it because I saw that "Mahoney" was in it and thought it was some kind of comedy. Definitely not. Bad acting, and a storyline full of holes (not just the one the child fell in). Here some more errors. 1. The movie starts with an upcoming child custody hearing, supposedly in Germany, near or in Berlin. In Germany, if the mother is German and her child is with her in Germany, NO one will hand over the child to the father from abroad, so there would most likely be no hearing in the first place (it is even extremely difficult for a German father in Germany). 2. The child lies in rising ice cold water for about 1 h, without getting unconscious. Probably it served in the US marines or the CIA before, training such extreme situations. At least it stops speaking when finally submerged (about time). 3. Although the movie was apparently partially shot in Germany, and the ambulance as well as the firetruck appear to be German, the paramedics as well as the firefighters wear uniforms with badly glued on signs on their regular uniforms, identifying them as "fire dept" and "ambulance". Why should German Uniforms look bad and have English descriptions? 4. Nobody in the village dares entering the woods, because they are "cursed" because people vanish in them, but nobody keeps looking for them and nobody knows about the mine shafts, although they were in operation 100 years ago. Hello? The mine is by the way far to small for an operation in the early 1900s, and NOBODY in Germany believes in cursed woods (except maybe some people in mental institutions and little children). 5. In the end, the fathers closes the mineshaft with the cheapest, thinnest wood from the home-depot, so "that nobody would have to endure what we had to". The construction will definitely rot away within a few months in German climate. Fill the shaft with sand or soil, that it will stay closed. I have seen worse movies, but not many.

jstevens5072 Could have been a good movie but I was hoping the kid in the well would die because he was so irritating and such a terrible "actor". The kid destroyed this movie. The kid talked like a 2 year old spoiled brat and I hoped the well would collapse. The boys mother was almost as bad and Guttenberg was the only one that had an ounce of ability. The other guy is almost as bad as the kid. Smartest thing they did was send down the toy truck in to the well to keep the kid quiet, his voice and baby talk was worse than finger nails on the chalk board. Only thing that could have made the movie better is if his mother fell in with him. The grandfather was probably the best actor in the movie, he didn't speak too much and sound like a complete idiot.

Len9876 This film is stunning, and is an award winner. It has the feel of a fantasy, in the midst of Michael's dark secret. There is denial in the midst of a real-life tragedy. This cannot be happening, but it is. Will the past keep two people from being freed in the present? Will a mother unlock the secrets that keep her from happiness? Will a father learn to stop running, and stay with the woman and son that he loves? Will a family be rescued?You have to see this movie to savor the richness of genuine love. The road to life is sometimes laden with great difficulty, but is it worth the effort to overcome and experience the things that are cherished in life's walk? The film is riddled with many questions, but its ending provides much introspection.Well done, and a Steve Guttenberg triumph beyond any cocoon. I rank this film a 10 out of 10. If you let out all of the stops, you will be able to release all of your emotions, and you will be able to appreciate the essence of life. Yes, stop and smell the roses.
