Reviews and Comments




Much Better Than Into The WildThis movie is awesome. Very moving. An excellent work of art. The movie has a great feeling and makes a great point about forgiveness and family. I enjoyed this movie and the story so much more than Into The Wild, which is a similar movie. The difference is that the main character in this movie is selfless and loving. This movie will stay with you and teaches some great lessons about life, family and love. It's one of the best films I have ever seen.




The Straight StoryWe really enjoyed this movie. Granted,it is a slow moving story (unlike a Die Hard flick) however, take time, sit back, relax and you will find the gold nuggets all through the film. And remember, this is true!




A Beautiful FilmI found this to be a rare film, free of profanity and sex, depicting a life and an age to which I can relate, as I am 74. This film, besides showing some beautiful scenic views of the midwest farmland, also gives us a glimpse into the mind of an old man (played by Richard Farnsworth) in his final years of life going to make peace with his brother who lives in another state and tells of the good and decent things of America he finds on the way. A beautiful and unforgetable film. Of all the films I have purchased from Amazon, I consider this film to be one of the best.
