Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A warmly pulsating, captivating drama.

fresh:
The movie has almost everything: music, romance, kids, spectacular scenery, religion, sentiment, comedy high and low, and, at the end, intrigue and adventure.

rotten:
The septet of blond and beaming youngsters who have to act like so many Shirley Temples and Freddie Bartholomews when they were young do as well as could be expected with their assortedly artificial roles, but the adults are fairly horrendous.

fresh:
Call me a drongo, but this really is quite watchable (yes, I've seen it more than once).
