Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Yazmin Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
ccthemovieman-1 I enjoyed two of the three movies in the "Sarah, Plain & Tall" trilogy. This, the final of the three, was definitely one of the "good ones. " It is an excellent family film with wonderful acting by the three adult stars: Christopher Walken, Glenn Close and Jack Palance. The storyline is simple but well-told. The only sub-par performance was by one of the kids. It was interesting to see how the kids had grown since that first movie. Of the three, that initial "Sarah," was the best- filmed with some beautiful cinematography. This movie didn't have that, but it had the best story. It had some genuinely-tearful sentimental moments and a very nice ending. Highly recommended.
HobbitHole This third installment of the Sarah, Plain and Tall series exceeds television standards of today while not being some boring, laugh track filled, 1950's television show. The values of a family and unconditional love in spite of difficulties in relationships is priceless. Glenn Close and Christopher Walken again do a great job of playing a couple committed to each other and to their children (amazing in these days of every family member for themselves)! As an added treat, Jack Palance turns in a fine performance. This is a man that Bette Davis insisted play in his first starring role as a bad guy. It's fitting that he plays a guy who was a bad father, but figures that he should make that right before his time on earth is done.Two former 'bad guy' actors, show that maybe Hollywood should stop type casting actors and allow them to explore other sides. Walken and Palance turn in heart-warming performances, even as they initially clash with each other due to their lack of relationship.If you want to see a great story that the whole family can enjoy, check this one out. If you want a typical scary Walken picture, this one's not for you.
sherwin-1 What a joy to watch this family grow up and see the same children acting in this series eight years later. Anna (Lexi Randall) is a beautiful young lady, working for a physician in town. She is in love with his son Justin, who went away in the army and was injured in war. And the newest daughter of Jacob and Sarah, Cassie, is an outspoken cutie, so transparently honest she often is embarrassing.On a cold winter day a stranger shows up at the farm. He is slow to reveal his identity. When they find out he is Jacobs father, John Witting, thought long ago dead, hard questions about the past are difficult to get answered. Glenn Close is magnificent as a loving mother, who wants only the best for all her family, and is constantly wrestling with the forces that tend to separate them. Sarah talking to Jacob said, "It's all so fragile, this life. Anything can happen in the blink of an eye. I could have died in that blizzard. Think of Justin, and John. probably more ill than we know. Time moves on. The moment passes, then it's too late. It's a shame, don't you think?"Life lessons on honesty and forgiveness make this a meaningful evenings entertainment.
pacfit Excellent story of lives that need repair....one of those rare films that I could watch with my 7 and 8 year old daughters... Glenn Close was excellent in the title role. It was also nice to see Christopher Walken in a more normal role.
