This made-for-TV movie was made as a conclusion to the Grizzly Adams saga, which started several years earlier in the theatrical movie "The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams" and subsequently continued (briefly) in a TV series of the same name. I haven't seen the theatrical movie or the TV series, but this made-for-TV movie (made by the same hands) suggests I'm not missing anything. Except for a somewhat impressive tornado sequence that makes a lot of destruction, this movie looks very cheap and threadbare, even in the scenes taking place in the wilderness. The script is aimed at children who are not very smart, with a number of scenes that ring wrong, from a courtroom scene that doesn't seem to be following the rules of court very well to Adams recovering in just a few hours from a serious gunshot to his leg. Dan Haggerty is warm and likable as always, and Keenan Wynn adds some spark to his (limited) role, though Chuck Connors overacts to such a degree that it's hard to believe anyone would follow his character. It's easy to see why this movie has fallen into obscurity.
