At the time of writing this movie has an IMDb rating of 8.1 I guess those most closely associated with the movie (and their Mums) tend to get the first votes in and rating slides thereafter. By rights this should settle in the low 6s. The storyline is a little misleading - Moon Blake's father is a survivalist and he does die but Moon does not then "learn how to make a home in the modern world" but rather is captured by the law, imprisoned, escapes and goes back into the wild before beginning the process of making a home in the modern world. The law, in the form of Constable Sanders, is poorly played - anyone who ever saw the Dukes of Hazzard will know what to expect. It is fun to see John Goodman, albeit in a slight role. All in all, a very forgettable movie. My 3 year old daughter was quite caught up in it though.
