Watch True Heart For Free

I'll tell you why so serious

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The faults I see with the movie start at the beginning right away.Missed opportunity to educate people on real life basic first aid skills. You don't slap around someone that is unconscious in a plane crash without checking that they are breathing, not bleeding and have not broken anything in their body. Nor did they check the pilot and the other person that was thrown from the aircraft.I don't think making the assumption that poachers would look to do harm to people in a crashed plane is reasonable as well. There are some poachers that would help others in need when encountered but I'll leave that to the storyline.Later in the movie some survival skills are explained and even some basic tracking skills which was nice to see but it was rare.I question why a pit trap would have florescent tubes around it. .The movie might be fine for younger kids kid below the age of 8 but I don't see why they would be exposed to it when there is probably better things they could be watching.

Spoilers herein.This is an absolutely dreadful film in every way except for the appearance of the remarkable Dunst.She has turned out to be an ordinary adult actress, but as a child she was spellbinding. Here, the role is undemanding, but see the mark of a good actress in that she gives more than the pedestrian director demands.Part of that young talent was in understanding how to create and use the `Lolita mouth,' that reverse smile that can persist through the whole character. It is derived from a pout but turned into a token of engaged personality. We lost something when she grew up.Ted's Evaluation -- 1 of 4: You can find something better to do with this part of your life.

kirsten dunst can't even save this movie with its wooden, awful acting... the two teenagers are truly ignorant of their surroundings and the plight of wildlife so what they doing there anyways?... they repeatedly do stupid things... it could have been really well done but is pretty much unwatchable except for the beautiful scenery and nice music... but that's just not enough to save it... good message for children and family time though...

This is an entertaining family movie, with gorgeous scenery and wonderful native music throughout. While the plot gets a little far-fetched in spots, it is still fun to watch. Kirsten Dunst turned in a terrific performance, and the subtle moral lesson is an added bonus.My only real problem with this movie is the repeated reference to the Kodiak. This movie takes place in British Columbia, Canada, but the Kodiak Bear (a sub-species of the Brown or Grizzly Bear) is only found on the isolated Kodiak Island, Alaska.
