Movie Monday: The Way Home

Faith and Family Reviews received the following product in exchange for writing a review. While we consider it a privilege to receive free products to review, our reviews are our honest opinion and thoughts of the product.

This movie is a real tear jerker! The Way Home is a true story about a family who are in the middle of getting ready for a vacation when their two year old son just disappears. Since they live on a vastly wooded area filled with lakes and ponds the family is very concerned. What starts as a family packing for a vacation turns into a massive search for little Joe. That involves almost the entire community in helping to look for this little boy.

Our family really enjoyed The Way Home. It is a wonderful movie that is a good quality film by Lions Gate. This movie has some thematic elements so if you have children that get scared easily this isn’t the movie for them. The Way Home is rate PG because of the thematic elements and brief tobacco smoking by a older gentlemen in the movie. But, our children didn’t get too scared while watching The Way Home. Just some tears when little Joe went missing. We really didn’t find any flaws with this movie at all so we were impressed.

We highly recommend The Way Home as a wonderful Christian movie for all family’s.

You may purchase The Way Home here for $21.99. Please check out The Way Home’s website for more information on The Way Home.

The Book of Ruth DVD

I received the following book in exchange for writing a review. While I consider it a privilege to receive free products to review, my review is my honest opinion and thoughts of the book.

We had the privilege of reviewing another movie produced by PureFlix Entertainment last weekend called The Book of Ruth. It is interesting that this was the next movie to review because last month our family watched another version of Ruth and were slightly disappointed in the discrepancies throughout it. Pureflix’s version was pretty much right on in their depiction of the biblical story and characters. They did not take liberties like the other version did and we appreciated that fact.

We really enjoyed this movie. With everything going on though, we did not preview it one beforehand but there really wasn’t any need to. It is a very family-friendly movie. We loved that the characters were portrayed like their real characters, showing their sorrow, as well as their joy and servitude towards one another. Just imagine what the world would be like if more people would think of others before themselves, it’d be a whole different place wouldn’t it?

I loved the wonderful relationship between Ruth and her mother-in-law. So often in the real world, mother-in-laws and daughter-in-laws get a bad rap from one another, but this movie showed how a daughter through marriage can be a devoted and loving daughter – by choice, by example and by love.

We have been very pleased with these two films we have received from Pureflix and highly recommend them to families seeking family-friendly, Christian entertainment.
