    Doesn't deserve those ridiculous low ratings from some reviewers.
    I find it strange but mostly harsh to read so many one star reviews for a movie that was entertaining from beginning till the end. I agree that the end could have been better explained but overall it's still much better than any of those negative reviewers want you to believe. The story is about friendship and compassion, not so much a thriller (I wouldn't have categorized it in that genre), but more as a drama with some decent actors, especially the twelve year old Peyton Kennedy. I wouldn't listen too much to the negative reviewers, just watch it and make your own conclusion, I'm sure you'll find it better than those pathetic one star reviews (I guess those people only watch a movie once a month or so).
