Perfect cast and a good story
It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Blistering performances.
When somebody ask me what is my favorite movie of my childhood, I will say this one. I saw It when I was ten or something near that. It's fully impressive to me that kid - as we called it Adam - have same years that I. I was a kid, just like Adam. I liked go to big shop whit my mom hen I was a kid, just like Adam was. And deep shocking me when in the movie I realized that Adam was dead. It's kinda very emotional and very serious movie and so close o reality and base on the true events.I search google very hard but I haven't find where can I download it! I know this is TV movie, but it's best what TV can offer to us since then 'till now. Anybody who have this movie, can plese may upload on the warezBB and tell me on my e-mail: [email protected]
THe movie of Adam based on the tragic tale of Adam Walsh is heartbreaking. It chronicles the tragedy of a young boy's life who was snuffed out from under us. His death was not in vain because his parents became advocates for missing children in real life. The movie ends with photos of missing children. The tragedy of missing child is often worse than knowing their fate. This film is faithful to the story. Daniel J. Travanti and JoBeth Williams play Adam's parents and they could not have done a better job. THe film may be over 20 years old but it is still very effective in bring human emotion to a story like Adam Walsh. He became the symbol for missing children. When Reve is reading those letters from people who have been through the hell that the Walshes have been through, it is heartbreaking. Rather than wallow in self-pity, they pursue justice for others who have been through the same. THey realize that they are not the only ones. The Walshes lives changed forever when Reve went to inquire about a lamp at the mall. She turns around and their little boy is gone forever. I remember the scene where they go to the car, leave the doors unlocked, and prepare if Adam comes home. That's probably the most memorable moment in the film.
It was THE best TV movie ever. You would think after making this movie, parents would be more cautious of the wear abouts of their kids. But you still hear about so many child abduction cases throughout the USA. I think every police station or places that post missing children notices in the country should have a picture of Adam on their missing child wall. I don't think that there will be a greater TV movie made better than this. Good acting and a great history of what happened to ADAM. I still cry at the end with the funeral services. A definite A+ movie. I can't believe this movie is 21 years old now. I was 4 years old when this came out. I first saw this movie when I was 6 and still have the movie.
I have seen Adam countless times (the first time when it it aired in 83, I was nine years old) I am moved everytime I see it.. its such a sad movie yet so uplifting for its strong message..The message of a father (John Walsh of America's Most Wanted, a living saint in my eyes) who after his son is brutally murdered stands up and fights the system to get rights for child victims!! John Walsh could have easily went back to his life and quietly mourned little Adam, I wonder than if anyone else would have had the guts to stand up for the children..Thank God John did.
