Dove Review

One young boy wants to leave behind a legacy, something for everyone to remember him by. Eventually he learns that “it’s not what we do that’s important, so much as how we do it.” That is the gift that this truth gives. This film has heart and is very compelling to watch. Children have an amazing way in looking at things differently from adults and these three boys see the world in a much simpler way. As the three young boys work together for one common cause, they also find out what motivates a school yard bully. They reach out to him to help, and for his help too. Along the way they learn a few lessons about life, friendship and how to treat others. This is a charming story for the family and even has a few subtle faith moments. Although there are a few scenes that may be frightening for younger children, we are pleased to award this movie our Dove “Family Approved” Seal for ages 12 and over.
