Journey to You

I rated this movie at 10 because it had all the elements of a wonderful and meaningful movie. It was actually filmed on the Camino de Santiago. The actors blended beautifully which which added to the depths of the story. The scenery was inspiring. But it was the story of how these people came together on a journey as strangers and became lifelong partners in the experience of the Camino de Santiago. This is a movie for a critical time on the planet where we need to become much more conscious. Instead of the me myself and I we need to become more aware of the "we". We are so much more when we gather together, especially on a journey of spirit.

One of the big draws for watching this movie is that it takes place on the Camino de Santiago French Way. (Which I have walked). Even if you are not familiar with that trail, the story is good, actually quite good - just different for Hallmark

At first, I was put off by the religious nature of this movie but then I needed to take in the simple fact that the Camino is a trail based on religion... so, the religious aspects fit.

In general, the movie is realistic and it does include several Camino components such as the use of a Camino passport and the albergues (hostels). Yes, it is a slow-paced movie but that totally fits what this trail is all about. Stop rushing, walk, and reflect.

My only complaint is the minimal use of place names in the movie. To anyone interested in this sort of adventure or this area, that is important. A few places were named but not enough. Still, this movie was good and fits the nature of the trail. Kudos to Hallmark for not including many of the normal tropes. I hope to see more adventure stories like this. There is, of course, a romance in the story but it is not the main component which is good.

Just loved this story. Great message and it flows great. Truly loved it, if you don't know the true story of Camino De Santiago please do yourself a favor and read up on it....then watch this great show. Great story of a grand dad, son and grand son who all take the walk but the real story was of a young woman from Boston who goes on the walk to soul search and follow the walk and path her parents did so long before. She hopes to reconnect her faith after some struggles back at work. Her mom convinced her to travel to Spain to start her journey on the way and her journey to go deep and find herself. Great story. Thank you Hallmark.

Yes, there is a different feel to this movie if you're used to watching hallmark. It's more thoughtful, and thankfully, as mentioned by another reviewer, does not use the typical tropes.

It's more thoughtful - sweet, kind, and yet realistic in its portrayal of the main characters. I for one appreciate the faith aspect which I do not think was overdone. The experience of the Trail is a religious one and it's refreshing that the characters were allowed to actually pray. Beautiful.

There were times when the dialogue was a little mundane and some of the acting wasn't quite as sharp as we might want, but overall it was a refreshing and enjoyable experience. I'd definitely watch it again. The best performance by far was by Solal Bellaiche, the son. The pace was in line with the theme and purpose( walking the Camino trail) of the movie. I've said before that we need to be in the right headspace to watch a lot of movies and this is one of them. Slow down and enjoy the beauty of this one.

OMG and not in a good way. Started out slow but when it turned into a spiritual journey walking beside God when had to quit watching the movie. Too bad most of the visible reviews are glowing with an average of almost seven we thought we hit the Hallmark jackpot. But like every lottery ticket you pay more than you win. Now for the required characters gibberish about the movie you get to see the movie and the movie you can see the movie you want in your head but not your face or your eyes are on your nose or your face and there we go with the movie review requirements that are just a waste of time!
