Un enfant kidnappé chez les Amish

I'm giving this a 1 star, because I can't go any higher, but I am AMAZED at how ridiculously entertaining this was. I felt like I was watching an Amish soap opera.

The story line was so so. Those reviewing who questioned the portrayal of the Amish..get over it. It's a movie. It was respectful of their community and educational about their ways. Sara Canning is a fantastic underrated talent who I thoroughly enjoy watching anytime. I would like to know why a name such as Kimberly Sustad doesn't even get a mention in the cast credits...strange.

After the assault outside the court, why wasn't the exact husband arrested for assault? Then he shows up at the hospital?

That's when I turned it off.

This is a well-made TV movie with a plot that is all but of a departure from the norm. Sarah Canning's and Steve Byers's performances ans Annie and Jacob are both exceptional . I live in an area with lots of Amish folk and Steve Byers nailed the accent. This is an entertaining show with quality performances where you "love to hate" certain characters. Costuming and makeup spot on: While the I'd a tad reminiscent of an old Harrison Ford, the plot is still very different and highly entertaining. Grab a good friend, soda, candy, and popcorn and curl up on the couch for an evening of entertainment.

I guess I am at a disadvantage, since I live in the area where this movie is supposed to take place. Plus, I'm surrounded by Amish farms on three sides of my house, and I know a fair amount about their culture.

This movie shows caricatures of what Amish people are like, not the reality. They don't dress right, the buggies are all wrong, the accents are wrong, and more. I could go on and on about all the things misrepresented here. Heck, they couldn't even pronounce the name of the city "Lancaster" correctly; they used the west coast version, not the pronunciation used in Pennsylvania.

I could probably get past all that if the plot were better. But the part with the guy providing whiskey to two of the Amish was unnecessary. It was a way to hide the rest of the bad writing. As for the main plot, eh, boring, and a variation on a theme we've seen too many times.

I'm shocked at the overall rating this movie got. Even without the cultural errors, this is by far one of the lesser Lifetime efforts.
