Gave it a shot after seeing the rating on Amazon(it was quite high).

Who is reviewing this thing? It feels like a made-for-tv movie and slowly it all begins to dawn on you - it's a CHRISTIAN MOVIE. The only one who seems to have any common sense(the daughter) is constantly talking about the bible and Jesus. At first I thought it was being ironic but no - THIS IS IT. It's a CHRISTIAN MOVIE.

Acting was bad. Story was bad and predictable. Dialogue was almost like a self-aware satire. I shut it off when the "bullies" in the school said something about the daughter - it was the most ridiculous, poorly executed line (at that point in the movie) that I actually had to stop watching. I've seen more sensible dialogue in The Room.

Counterpoints shown are the typical movie trope reasons anyone is an atheist or less than obsessed with church on Sundays. Christianity is the only answer in this movie and the salvation of all characters. Please, just label these movies for what they are - popcorn flicks for cultists. It certainly tricked me based upon the description and reviews, I won't be tricked again.

This was a powerful story of love and redemption, and a story worth telling. Sure, it is a B film, not the best acting, etc, but if you're willing to overlook that, hidden here is a true gem of a film.

Her dad needed her as much as she needed him. Thank the good Lord he put these two together. They saved one another! A good man and a really sweet, loving, young girl! I, personally could not have denied her the love and care she needed as she was quite inspiring and really got the best out of people. Great movie with a good lesson of life for a girl and her father (does it matter?). More movies should be made of such loving realities! She saved him with her love in a time she really needed him as a father. Great story, good but not great end.

I only lasted 50 minutes and that was pushing it. Clichéd, lame, saccharine, pick your negative adjective. The little girl has a future ahead of her as an actress, the rest not so much. If you like your religion served up simple, this is for you.

Quite possibly the worst movie I've ever seen, bar none. The acting is horrendous, the characters are awash in a sea of ethical violations, poor parenting and...Jesus. Predictable, hard to watch. For giggles, search up why it's "based on a true story". FYI: it's not.

This was so ridiculous. A young girl finds her father who was a Marine. He smokes and drinks, and this little girl tells him what he can and cannot do. Seriously, little girl is a Bible thumper who tells her father what to do. We couldn’t get past the beginning. And this was based on a true story. Waste of money.

Wonderful message. Great movie. Warning it is a tear jerker but has redeeming message.

This is one of the best movies out there. I saw it in the theater like three times I had a copy of it on DVD and ended up letting somebody borrow it and never got it back so I ordered it off of Amazon prime but I am going to try to get another DVD of it. But every time makes me cry but it's a wonderful movie.
