Well Deserved Praise

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

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.

Well it is almost Christmas 2011 and I just watched this film on cable. I enjoyed it immensely. What a sweet lovely family film! It has that delicious Christmas spirit that we sometime long for. It has that gentleness that one treasures in family style films. The film has a certain quality that is similar to THE PRINCESS BRIDE - the telling of a story.The film is great for any family of any religious background. It is a story of passion of sport, passion for life, passion for friendship, the magic of giving and sharing and the Christmas spirit.Enjoy the film! A delightful cast, wonderfully filmed, with a great script. It has all those elements we appreciate in a Christmas story, similar to IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE.Thank you for keeping this film alive on cable.

I just found it to be a great Christmas movie, that you can enjoy with your loved ones. I especially liked it since it's about living your dreams, plus it has no "bad Santa" or weird robots trying to destroy Christmas. I don't think that that kind of movie is that appropriate or in the spirit of Christmas. I'm not saying that the subject of this movie is actually real, but it seems to be closer to ones heart and I think it brings a lot of joy. Blizzard is very funny, and the little girl ice-skating is just too cute! It's a story about a very special friendship that will leave behind a lot of wonderful memories. Plus, it's about ice-skating, which I love! Have a great time watching it!

My family watched this last night during our Friday family film and pizza night. This is a really good, charming film! It's an engaging movie, with lots of positive lessons. It also tells a good Santa Claus tale that keeps the mystery of the North Pole intact for young viewers.I'd put this in with the league of quality family films like "Because of Winn-Dixie." My kids are 3, 6, and 11 years old. We all loved it. It even made my 6 year-old a bit weepy (he said he had dust in his eyes ;) This will be a holiday staple in our house for years to come. If you have kids, go out and rent or buy this little gem from Canada. Levar Burton has made a sweet family film here; he certainly appears to have a sense for what family moviegoers want to see.

This film was the most entertaining movie I've seen in a long time....and my kids just loved it!! So will yours!! It has the most amazing visual effects, but more important, it has a phenomenal story with great heart. Everyone should see this picture....it is destined to be a classic!
