Absolutely Fantastic
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
I loved this Christmas movie, and it was very enjoyable to watch with my mother. I recommend watching The Christmas Shoes, especially with your family, as it is a very cute, yet sad, story about love and families. It is a great movie for the holiday season and displays the importance of it with an amazing plot. The characters are very lovable and are easy to relate to. The acting was incredible and flawless Max Mower and Amber Marshall are perfect for the roles of two cute little kids, and their acting is very enjoyable to watch. This story really teaches us all a lesson, and along with being great for our entertainment, this movie has a a meaningful plot and ending. All in all, watching the movie with not be disappointing and will warm your heart.
I just watched this tonight and I had tears in my eyes. Wow, how can you not see the real meaning of life after watching this. Life is to short and to spend it chasing the all mighty dollar is a shame especially when you realize it can not bring a loved one back, only memories can! One can not have memories of a loved one if they do not spend time with them.This movie is a great Christmas movie and makes one realize what Christmas is really about. Sometimes the little gifts in life are the most treasured. I hope to see this movie again.
I rented this movie from my church and just got finished watching it. I never read the book but I've heard the song on the radio, and cried the first time i heard it. The acting was superb especially Rob Lowe as Robert Layton (he's one of my favorite actors). The boy who played Nathan was excellent his acting was so good and realistic that I cried with him. It's especially sad that his mom died at Christmastime. The choir who sang outside the home were beautiful they sounded like a professional choir. I'm not gonna ruin it for people who haven't seen it but I will say that I definitely recommend it to people who believe in miracles and how the smallest ones can change your life.
I remember listening to this song on the radio as it happened to be one of my mom's favorites (and is now one of mine). As I mulled over the tear-jerking, yet strangely uplifting story of the song, I thought about how awesome it would be if a movie was made of it. Thankfully, by the grace of God, someone else must have thought so too! This movie is, simply put, a blessing to watch. It is sad, yes, but it is uplifting in the sense that it shows its audience how small, random acts of kindness can make a significant difference in someone else's life. As Rob Lowe laid that money down on the counter, that little boy's life (and his mother's) was forever changed for the better. The man who Lowe played was quite wealthy. It didn't cost him anything substantial to help out another human soul, and yet that small, perhaps seemingly insignificant act of kindness was as ripples in a pond. As the back of the DVD (which we bought without hesitation) says, "If we're open to it, the smallest of miracles can change our lives." If you keep an open heart and mind while watching this movie, you will be blessed. That is a promise.
