Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

This film was ridiculous! I hope Guttenburg was paid all his money upfront. The parents of a boy stuck down a well, continuously leave the site to go off and argue - continuously. Just when you think the dopey mother would shut up about what she thinks her almost divorced husband is guilty of, she starts up again and again and again. There is one segment of almost five minutes when they both (the mother could do it herself?) run up to the house to get a device so their drowning child can breath underwater and they stand in the attic for ages arguing interminably. Like that would happen! This mother leaves the well side all the time. No mother would. All ends well however, when the child who has drowned, is rescued and brought back to life by his father who has finally decided to spend some time with his son. And he (Guttenburg) and his dopey wife decide to try again, she grinning like she never hated his guts. Awful!

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.

The story obviously had potential. Your typical tragedy/thriller with a few twists, heart tugs, etc.There's one thing this movie lacked: Good acting.The acting was on the level of a porno, maybe one step above it.Other thoughts.I'm not sure why the husband was yelling the whole movie. I couldn't stop laughing, at first I thought it was a comedy skit.This is what happens when you read a review on blockbuster that says a movie was good. It had to be a paid poster or someone associated with the movie.The kid's speech impediment was driving me crazy.This movie would not make the USA network. That's how bad it was. It *might* make Lifetime for a unpaid movie.This movie made my top 10 list of all time worst movies.

Plot was unbelievable, they waited far too long to feed the kid, would be FIRST thing on a lads mind at that age, not throwing a tantrum at the bottom of a hole, Steves girlfriend admits she is a rockclimber yet fails to try to gear up and go down the hole that was to small for the men(she be quite tiny), and the mother watches her only child go under water from 20 ft above???????? NOT A CHANCE!!!!!!!, no parent would just stand and cry hysterically.........I was wholly unimpressed by the acting, overacting, and lack of acting.......the young lad and his throwing a temper tantrum in the bottom of a well after spending the night and most of the morning there and NOT asking for food right away??The first thing on a childs mind when lost is food the second they get hungry, NOT tossing a fit. absolutely unbelievable storyline...
