SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

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

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

This movie kept me on the edge of my La-Z-Boy. No joke. Not only does the fine cast of characters consistently deliver poignant performances, the writing and costuming are the best that I've ever seen in a made-for-television film. What sets this movie apart from other Lifetime movies is the incredible subtext:that of loneliness and the quest for fullness. (As an interesting aside, the first recorded use of lonely occurs in Wm Shakespeare's COriolanus.) Generally speaking, as part of an existential crisis,loneliness is comprised of feelings of emptiness and isolation.These feelings pervade a person's psyche and cause him to think that he is suffering from an interpersonal conflict, and shuns all human contact. The man in the woods, in this film, suffers from existential loneliness. Yet he overcomes it to help a young boy, and his problems dissolve at the end of this fine film. Truly, the issue of existential loneliness, its severity, and the ultimate resolution to such a serious problem, embedded within this film will make it a classic for years to come.

There's nothing new in this movie. It's one more story of a man who lives on his own in a forest because of something that happened to him in the past. His reclusion is destroyed when he finds a boy who had been kidnapped. Will he help the lad get home? Who took him? Is he still around?My rate 5/10
