Mai lontano da qui

This is a simplistic review as it reflects a simplistic but touching story.

I grew up in the NRV. Giles county was just over Cloyd's Mountain. The plot of the film is spotty in places, slow to develop and lacks real continuity, with fits and starts. The cinematography does well to catch the nuances of the Valley though there are some hiccups.

Ellen Burstyn, Mackenzie Foy, Alano Miller all do extremely well in their respective roles. Josh Lucas as a compassionate attorney and Ned Bellamy as the primary antagonist contribute well to the stories inside the story.

The last few scenes are rushed and somewhat trite, but I recommend 'Wish You Well' as an escape to another place, another time that seem more relevant than ever.

Pop some corn, find a comfortable place and enjoy the scenery, the slow pace and throw in some Dots to complete this 101 minutes of a rather good movie.

No, it's not action packed as is usually the case with a lot of movies now, but more importantly it took me to another time and place. A place that I didn't want to leave. I'm not going into details, I want you to watch this. I honestly savored every minute of this movie and took my sweet time watching it. Very well crafted and edited and I was honestly surprised at the seemingly simple ease at going back in time, to another place and taking you right along with them. I cannot recommend this enough.

Wish You Well is a surprisingly Great film with an awesome cast. It is Super to have a feel good real life film that everyone in the family can see together. It is a need alternative to the plethora of action adventure and dark movies that have prevalent the past several years.

The film is very well acted. Great scenes. Believable. I think it has the potential for numerous awards.

Brought tears to most viewers eyes.

Baldacci is a fantastic author and this, although out of his usual genre, is one not to be skipped over. I hope he does more films.

WIsh You Well should be on the Annual Watch list along with Miracle on 34th Street and Its a Wonderful Life!

I would highly recommend this to virtually everyone.

Heartwarming story of love, loss and greed and how it affects people across generations.

I had such a nice time seeing this film for the festival in Indianapolis. I was particularly impressed by its content. It is sure to be a family favorite. There aren't many films that are fit to take children to see. This film is both appropriate and enjoyable for the entire family. It was heartbreaking at times to walk the life of these young children. the film easily moved a mother to tears. tears of sadness and confusion on how a mother could lose her connection to her children. And then to tears of joy as she reclaims her position as a loving mother. The shots from autumn in Virginia were gorgeous with their valleys of crimson and amber. The crew did an amazing job capturing the beauty of this area. The leading characters also gave a very memorable performance. I hope that many others will have the opportunity to see this film on the big screen. Family films like Wish You Well are what's my mothers are hoping to see more of in the theaters.
