Kid West

It was a heartwarming movie, but I don't suggest this movie as a kid friendly because it showed a rifle and kids near a fire also drawing of men hanging down, there is also a man smoking which doesn't imply positive messages to a child.

The plot is simple as a feisty girl tries to adjust and race against the new neighborhood gang of bullies with some mystical powers subsequently added into the story.

I support independent films and filmmakers but in this one I really didn't find anything so special to be talked about.

The acting was acceptable, Mary Bair did her job aptly.

The premise is very small, predictable, and that is one of the reasons why this movie doesn't seem to be stretched, it is to the point.

In the Soundtrack Department it features a country song "Forever My Girl" by Collin Malaney.

The CGI effect of fire was awful, but they did it in regard to child safe environment.

Henceforth, nothing to be treasured or cherished here except good defeats evil.

Well my review isnt going to say anything that no one else said, so I will just agree with all the positive comments. Its a great adventure movie the whole family can watch together, as there is nothing BAD in the movie (unlike 1 review said). Though it was funny when I seen them leaving the state of Missouri (the midwest, not the south) and head NORTH to the state of Minnesota (also the midwest). But there is a funny scene, in the scene where they are taking off, the truck already has Minnesota tags. For this being their first movie, they ever done, has a really good story line. Cant wait for a part 2.

I love movies with heart like this. It turns out it was made independently in Minnesota!

Fun movie that I think both parents and kids will both enjoy. The story is about a little girl, Kid West, who is trying to protect her mom from the same fate as her dad, a cop. She's also trying to replace her dad, financially. The movie starts when they leave the south and relocate to the Midwest. Kid West is told by her mom to stay out of trouble, but of course Kid West finds herself in a crazy adventure where she thinks a local Native American girl stole Ojibwe treasure from a museum.

Soon things get mixed up. Local bullies arrive, along with an odd older sheriff. I liked the story a lot and thought it was pretty interesting in that it portrayed the characters it did, females, Native Americans... There was some great little plot twists and I think probably some meaty metaphors in there as well.

Definitely worth watching!Only complaint is that it's too short!

Kid West is a fun and adventurous movie. It had a great original story, funny moments, and a clever mystery. It was a little like Indiana Jones, one of my all-time favorites! I was very impressed with the writing, directing, and acting. I could see this being turned into a series or having a sequel.
