★★★★ · Has it all · Kentworth · 2014-05-30

This film has it all - drama, romance, comedy, city, country, good guys and bad guys, animals (one of them in particular is pretty smart), good plot, good sets and scenery, and the acting was more than acceptable. I enjoyed this, and would recommend it. Not quite the 5-star rating, but a solid 4. It just needed to be a bit more in-depth in some spots, and less so in others. Hang the editors! Praise the writing and directing.

★★★★ · Great little movie · ghostmadl · 2013-08-07

This was a great story line with the ranger acting just stupid enough on the outside to throw the bad guy off!

★★★ · Pretty good · kareneliot · 2010-11-19

It was pretty good "Hide-out from the cops" movie. I was entertained by it. I especially enjoyed what happened to the sweater at the end. I almost gave it 4 stars, and halfsies aren't an option...
