Alabama Moon - Abenteuer Leben

Simple but sweet. First phrase I mention about this film. For the family film, this film have lack of comedy and it's gonna be unusual for its kind lover. But in the fact, the film successfully bring us to its story, to feel the sadness, emotion, friendship and its drama. You will find the dead tragedy, a losing, to survive and to moving on. Moreover, center of view from this film is about a kid and his survival and adventure, and it really increase the power of drama. One more time I mention, this film is lack of comedy, the power is placed on the drama. This film is right to all peoples, especially for kid. It's simple. The message is easy to understand. It's fresh, nothing less, nothing. Suggestion: Watch it with your kid-heart position.

I really enjoyed this film. Not a complex story, per se, but smart acting. Moon is such a great character, and the focus on friendship and human interaction, and love is great. Watch this.

Alabama Moon is a lovable movie, as long as you can remember what's being a child and dreaming about a grand forest adventure, living off nature, standing by yourself, dodge bullies, defy all odds and make some great friends in the process.

It is, as well, a film about dead, losing and moving on, in life. So fun? yes, simple? ditto, addressed to children? spot on, simplistic? no, I don't think so, the answers Alabama Moon gives to the great questions of life might be simple, perhaps too simple for an adult, but in a world who dodges anything related to death and loss a film that raised this question should not be easily forgotten.

Watch with your 11 years old heart on.

Afternoon Session version of two great dramas "Captain Fantástico" and "Sem Rastro" here the initial drama gives way to a children's adventure, filled with cuteness and chased by the bumbling villain, all very cute and fluffy to watch with the kids...

This movie was one of those nice surprises you find, something totally unexpected!! Even had John Goodman which I didn't know till I started watching and I love some of his roles, this was one of those.Too it is one of those movies that can be watched by one of any age, family, or by yourself. For me I was looking for something while recooperating from hip replacement surgery and took a chance. Sometimes these films can be some of the best! Really had some surprises and not where I thought the story was headed. Story of a sheltered kid who had lived out most of his life in poverty with his Dad in the wild (actually a cave) after his Mom's passing. Actually they were living in a forest cave and growing their own food, kind of like "Captain Fantastic" if you have seen that movie- somewhat similar, but different! Plot simple to follow, but a nice enjoyable ride, with Cint Howard (Ron Howards brother) playing the role of the hick sheriff. If your looking for a movie on a rainy day or a boring day this is one that can fill the void and brighten your day! A nice ray of sunshine, just what I needed while convalescing!
