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.

I just loved this movie! Refreshingly different from the usual Hallmark formula. Five (including the tour guide) people discovering themselves on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage hike. It was very "real" as they stayed in a hostel, wore the same clothes several days, carried just essentials in their backpacks, and the lead actress wore minimal makeup, making it all feel like an authentic experience. All the characters were interesting, and the family dynamics between grandfather, father and son was vey relatable. I look forward to watching this movie again! Thank you Hallmark for movies like this!

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.

Many will see a spiritual story about trusting God to lead in one's life, and it is that. But it is a generic God and could be the God of almost any faith. Each of the characters in the group that walked together was looking for that leading. The entire group bonded together.

The romantic part of the story was not the main focus, but still significant and it followed many of the usual Hallmark story lines. In broad terms it was predictable.

I am a huge Erin Cahill fan. If she is in it, I will watch it even to the point of at least one of the tense stalkerish stories on Lifetime. There is something about the personality she usually plays and she is a beautiful woman. In this story, her character started out too tightly wound, but that was the point.

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!
