Far Haven

It felt like a Hallmark version of a western with not much of a script. The acting is barely there. The writing is nonexistent. You can easily figure out where the plot is heading; there's no mystery. Not a single curse word used I believe. There's no tension. Nothing to make me want to stay invested in the movie which I found myself almost falling asleep through several times. I can only imagine that this movie appeals to a certain group of people that it's aimed towards. Once again, no cursing, no sex and no nudity. The movie overall has almost a religious overtone. You have been warned! I wished I could reclaim the lost time I spent watching this thing.

How do I hate this movie, let me count the ways Stilted, hollow dialogue Flat, slow acting Boring, excruciatingly slow paced, non-existent plot Unrealistic props, well, unrealistic everything, so this one probably doesn't count That horrific blue stage coach The sequel promoting ending- surely they do not intend to make another one, or worse, a series of them 😳 That blond girl whose only contribution was a never ending sappy smile

If you enjoy westerns, maybe visit the ones made in the 1940-1960s. The 25 minutes I watched hurt. I kept thinking it was probably made in the 70s during those bad western years (you know the ones where all the actors had the 70s style hair) but nope.

I'm sorry. I wanted to like this movie. It's awful. Obviously fans, friends and family of the cast are rating it much higher than it deserves. I don't think it's the fault of the cast as all are wonderful. The material is very poorly written and I don't feel the story conveys what they described in interviews. It's too much crammed into a short film. It jumps around. It's on the level of a cheaply made for TV movie. It's a hallmark feature with a happy ending. What it's not is a western. If you really like this film go watch True Grit, The Outlaw Josey Wales, Shane then come update your review.

THIS MOVIE BRINGS LIGHT OUT OF DARKNESS! YES ! A FEEL GOOD MOVIE!

GIVES HOPE TO THOSE THAT ARE HOPELESS.

IT INSPIRES ! IT CREATES WHAT WAS TO A GREATER DEGREE! IT LEAVES YOU FILLED WITH ENERGY! AND HOPE FOR OTHERS!

IT MAKES YOU WANT TO LOOK FOR A OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW LOVE AND ASSIST OTHERS IN BUILDING THEIR ON BRIDGE OUT TROUBLESOME SITUATIONS.

THE HEART OF MEN WERE SHOWN IN THIS MOVIE SOME GREEDY PULLING ALL TO THEMSELVES. SOME HEARTS OVERFLOWING WITH CARE FOR OTHERS THAT HAD NO ONE ELSE TO PICK THEM UP!

EVERYDAY MEN AND WOMEN DISCOVERING STRENGTH,BOLDNESS THAT THEY DID NOT REALIZE WAS INSIDE OF THEM! TILL LOVE BECAME THEIR POWER!

Probably one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Everything smacked of a cheap production, poor script, poor soundtrack and acting. Did not like the religious undertone, as if the movie was sponsored by a church group. They must have got a special on neckscarves as everyone seems to be wearing one. Most of the characters have crisp, clean clothes and replica Winchester Rifles that do not even look authentic.

The gunbelts and holsters appear to be new as if a leathermaker whipped up a bunch for the movie.

The "kid", Luke, looked so stupid with his Paul Newman Hat. It got to the point that we watchers could say what the characters were going to say before they said it.

Anyways, it was painful to watch and I am so glad I got it at the library for free and did not have to pay to see it. A classic example of the trash movies that are coming out today. The hero is supposed to be the strong silent type but came across as someone not very bright. Grrrrrrrr !!!!!!!
