Worth Watching if in the Mood
15 April 2001 - 6 out of 6 users found this review helpful.
Uplifting, if predictable, storyline with a spirited supporting cast and strong performances for a TV movie. Richard Crenna makes a surprisingly good cowboy and grandfather, and Chris Olivero as the smarmy teen becomes more interesting as he evolves. David Carradine and company are involved in the most entertaining scenes in the movie.
Left unresolved are explanations for the ending, and the reunion with the family. The parents are caricatures and seem distant from the story except as plot points.
If you're in the mood for melodrama and nice scenics, catch this when it comes on television.
