Pray for Rain

No typo there, both works in a way. This is run of the mill sort of. There are obstacles and drama, but you know where this is going and I wouldn't fault the actors too much, not because I think they are great, but just because the core material does not give them much to play around with. Again the story is very simple and easy to follow.

You may like that or you may be annoyed by it. Whatever the case, this is not rough around the edges even if it gets violent from time to time and a bit "dangerous". So a TV movie of the week and it knows what it is. Also there have been worse movies than this particular one. Also nice to see some of the actors like Jane Seymour. Other than that, just don't expect much

An implausible plot financed by the Lucas Oil family to needlessly slag environmentalists and government officials. We're supposed to believe that California's water crisis isn't caused by fossil-fuel enabled climate change, over development, or poor planning and strategy with respect to water consumption. Nope, it's caused by evil environmentalists and lazy public employees.

On the plus side, Jane Seymour still looks good and she gives a credible performance. Much of the rest of the cast also does good work. But that doesn't take away from the fact that this film is pure disinformation.

Set in Central Valley, California, this film often plays like a Made- for-TV or B-movie. Annabelle Stephenson stars here, as Emma, a NYC writer for a fashion magazine, who is returning to her hometown of Bella Canejo, Ca., for her father's funeral.

Soon however, she'll be switching hats from fashion reporter to investigative sleuth, as she tries to get to the bottom of a large conspiracy involving the cutting off of desperately needed water to the local farmers by those who want to force them out and buy their land for pennies on the dollar.

Some of the decisions by the intrepid Emma had me shaking my head in disbelief as they became more and more ridiculous as the movie progressed. There was enough here though to keep me interested and want to know how it would all turn out, and it does have some twists near the end and a poignant finale.

Reading the review of critic Roger Moore, on Rotten Tomatoes outlining where the production of this film was coming from raised a lot of red flags for me, so buyer beware.

This movie touched me and this is what has to happen with a drama movie.

Strong characters, well played, i have no idea what movie the guy above me watched but this was absolutely a good movie.

It was even so good that i had to make a account here just to leave this review to tell you all to watch it when you have the chance.

You wont regret it, the score is definitely to low.

This is not a Denzel Washington movie. It is an engaging drama. The beginning was a little flat and familiar, but I enjoyed the plot twists. I did not see it as having any political message, but I can see how people with that predisposition may think it does.
