Watch Custody For Free

Must See Movie...

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Interesting film where an English professor, who is widowed, is forced to come to grips with the past when his daughter's real father suddenly shows up after 13 years.Seems that the real father walked out on his pregnant wife and she divorced him to marry the professor. Unfortunately, she dies of cancer at 36. Our "father" had never gone through the process of legally adopting Amanda, beautifully portrayed by Kay Pannabaker. Ms. Pannabaker is the sister of the Pannabaker who plays the daughter of James Woods in the television show "Shark." The sisters resemble each other. Speaking of resemblance, Rob Morrow, who plays the professor is a dead-ringer for Dustin Hoffman. The latter would have had a field day in the part.The story is interesting as the child is swept off her feet by her real father, John Sullivan. (James Denton) The fact is that he is a multimillionaire who shows his daughter the best of everything. Of course, he files for custody of his daughter and wins the case.It's here that this story begins to falter. Cliché driven themes take hold. Amanda is abandoned on Thanksgiving as Sullivan has to close a big business deal. Then there is the ultimate fight between dads where the usual Hollywood lines are repeated: "You weren't there when she broke her arm or cried for 6 months after her mother died."The end is satisfying and is not totally unexpected.

As a fan of Rob Morrow and Kay Panabaker, I was extremely excited to hear about this movie. When it premiered, I didn't know what to expect, exactly. I expected tears because, come on, it's a Lifetime movie!!! I was a great movie of the stress that is put on a child as well as the adults. There was high points and low points, like in every great movie. There was laughter, frustration, anger, confusion, sadness, and happiness. James Denton did a great job, too. There's a great message in this movie.The characters are believable, the plot is believable. That means one thing: Great movie for all ages to watch!!!!!! Next time it's on, I recommend everyone watch it.

This story starts out with a widower(Rob Morrow) raising his young daughter(Kay Panabaker). They have a wonderful relationship full of closeness and caring, only he is keeping a startling secret: He is not her birth father. After abandoning her pregnant mother 13 years ago her birth father(James Denton) comes into her life and wants so custody. It is a very well written story that follows the natural progression hitting on various details of custody battles, but I would have like it a little better had more of the court seen had been played out. Otherwise this is a great movie. I recommend watching it with a box of tissues at your side. The acting is first class and it feels very real.
