The Tiger Rising

Quite possibly one of the wort movies I've ever seen. Don't waste your time. Queen Latifah, Dennis Quaid disappointing. Plot was ok at the outset but just sort of crumbled at the end.

The movie is very slow paced and it was boring. This is a made for TV movie and should not have been a theater movie. I am glad we went during the day and did not pay full price.

If you can't get a decent performance out of Dennis Quaid, just quit. Horrible script and direction. I don't know how things like this get made. Just dismal.

We thought a movie with Dennis Quaid and Queen Latifah would be a sure bet, but their talents were wasted. The movie lacked direction and dragged for the most part. The three children in attendance were in and of the theater during the movie. Obviously, the movie failed to hold their attention (as well as ours). What started out as having potential turned turned into the hope that it would end soon so we could go home.

Posted sign on semi-remote Kentucky property said, "Trespassers Will Be Shot". Is that legal or ethical? Script was odd, perhaps because of mixed symbolism of children being bullied combined with a child's coping with loss of mother with both somehow connected to a caged tiger that is oddly located in a remote no where location. Ending bizarre.
