The Lil River Rats and the Adventure of the Lost Treasure Trailers

Nine-year-old Molly Brown lived and breathed "that river." After her mother died it was just her and her dad, Paul, and of course "cappy" her ailing grandfather, but with all cappy’s medical bills, Paul’s only choice is to sell everything, including the family home, and move away. But Molly can't leave her friends and the river, especially the river... it’s been her whole life! She has to make a plan!

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

This movie was in a family movie pack (which had other movies as well) that I got at Wal-Mart, so I wasn't expecting greatness. However, this movie was really bad. THe story isn't an original story either. The acting was terrible and the fact that a father leaves his daughter alone without a babysitter is just appalling.I was hoping for something somewhat decent, but instead got a bland poorly acted movie. I assume little kids might like it, if they're not bored with it, but I think that even kids will find this movie really boring.Hmm, I need ten lines, so I have no idea what more to say that I haven't said already. The movie wasn't good...okay hopefully this will be enough.

This was the WORST movie I have ever seen! Molly (molly hall) could not act AT ALL! she had no emotion it was all blah blah blah like she was reading out of a boring text book. The smart kid and the kid who loves food (there names weren't worth remembering) were so annoying it drove me crazy.When ever the talked it was about some scientific thing or food. Mollys Dad didn't show enough emotion about his daughter missing. The police officer and Mollys dad said the same thing like four times. it was just horrible. Everything was repeated way to much. Beatrice should have had something bad happen to her for being so mean. I just wasted a moment in my life by watching this movie!

We watched Lil River Rats last weekend and it was a great movie. My kids 10 and 8 love the movie and thought it was like a movie on the Disney Channel. The boat, river and bear were all very cool and it really looked like a Hollywood movie rather than an independent film. The end of the movie was very suspenseful. There was a lot of work that went into this film and I think it was shot on location in Indiana. We saw the first movie from this filmmaker 587 The Great Train Robbery and it was excellent too. I thought the kid that had the Hal 9000 computer was pretty funny. The water balloon fight was funny too. I wonder how they controlled the helicopters to drop the balloons. The story flowed along very well and all the kids did a great job acting. The sound effects and music were also done very well and added to the movie viewing experience.

My son got me out of bed on Sunday to watch this with him on cable. He had seen it before and wanted me to watch it with him again. I sat down with him and we watched this together, it was a real treat! It was on early on cable before we went to church, it had a good theme for kids, and parents. It was something we could do together. It was a fun family film. Good scenery, and funny parts through out. I liked the kids in the movie and so did he. The bear scenes were funny and scary to him. But the message of the movie he got. He wants to build a raft now. And go looking for treasure, but we don't live near a river so it's the pool in the backyard. I would recommend this movie to any family.
