Arizona Summer

OK, somewhat cheesy in spots and while not an edge of your seat, thrill a minute, definitely a good family movie. The bully and braggart gets his comeuppance in a comical if predictable manner. The adult actors seemed somewhat stilted but the youngsters did an excellent job. It will be interesting to see where their careers go from here. I went to see this movie in order to support a local Arizona writer/actor. As a native of Prescott, Arizona, it was great to see my hometown featured. Great scenic shots. Take your kids to see it. You could do much worse. It's not bad for an independent making his first film. I hope to see more locals get a chance.

This is pretty much a kid's show. It's pleasant, but not strong in any way except for scenery. It's about a boy's summer camp in Arizona, but it's not obnoxious or crude. It's a mostly light-hearted, innocent fun. The movie follows two 8 year old friends and a small group of rivaling 16 year old camp leaders.

The background landscapes are great. The small lakes and hills are visually colorful and delightful to watch. However, the content and characters of the movie, while nice, can't quite match the scenery. It's a nice/OK movie, but maybe only worth watching if you're a young child.

One on the most pathetic movies I've ever seen. But I enjoyed it.

Maybe a little dopey at times but it has a "good guys win" message and no sex, language or significant violence to be concerned about. It is about young friendship, teenage crushes and dealing with bullies in the surrounds of an Arizona summer camp. If you just like clean movies and some humor on the silly side I think you will enjoy this one.

Disclaimer: watched this on Showtime and could only take 75 minutes of this trash. A family movie?? The kids are not even cute. The older teen counselors attempt "rising" above a horrid script and story.

Lee Majors is a plain-out awful actor since he first entered a sound-stage. He does not disappoint as the camp director. The script goes off in all directions with no conclusions. The bullying by the camp counselors toward each other as well as the little campers is totally unrealistic. They would have been fired in a real life setting. (I know this as I was a camp assistant director.) A waste of time and money.
