| User ReviewPrivate UI grew up watching this movie and I really liked the entire scenario...It's a little old, but it was good and clean, and I liked how Grandma was baking the cake the entire movie!!! |
| User ReviewKelly EI love this movie. It is also one of my favorites. I love how these siblings do anything to stay together. |
| User ReviewMatthew MI remember seeing this as a kid and enjoying it. So I finally found out what the title was by just scanning through salvation army and recognizing that the movie was in fact the one I remember watching as a kid. Refreshing my memory and figuring out why I liked it as a kid was fun. The nostalgic factor really helped me enjoy the picture but it was a fun and entertaining story. Glad I relived my childhood memories of the film. Also I enjoyed the soundtrack. The songs sung were frickin awesome. The movie I had was edited so I am kind of interested to see what they really see and if I can get myself on an unedited version. |
| User ReviewFreSh PI love dis show but it dont even come on kno more |
| User ReviewKathy PI learned so much from this epic film. Bravo! |
| User ReviewLiz M"Hold on (hold on) we're on our own...we can make it together..." Grew up on this movie, its old, but good:) It's amazing how the oldest boy in this movie got the hang of driving a stick shift SO fast....just plain ol' amazing... |
| User ReviewMatt HFollowing the death of their mom, four children take a road trip to search for their uncle and avoid foster care. |
| User ReviewJohn NI cherish many fond memories from numerous viewings of this nice little movie about a group of siblings trying to survive an oppressive, uncaring world. |
| User ReviewAshleigh SI remember watching this when I was a kid. The older sister's really annoying, and it would have been better without the old lady narrating every 10 minutes. |
| User ReviewCarolyn WI would be very curious to see what this movie was before Feature Films for Families awkwardly inserted the Christian-moral-compass grandmother character. It seems like a fun 80's romp with a heart, but Grandma just can't let those orphans get away with evading authorities and borrowing other peoples' cars without passing judgement on them.
