8/10
coming of age adventure flick
3 August 2005
I first saw this movie as a young teen and loved it then. It would be great if mca would release it for distribution/sale in DVD format. It is a rare occasion when you get a film that is entertaining without the violence, nudity and language these days. Hayley and John Mills are great together as father and daughter. This is a great story about a daughter and father realizing that it is time to let go of each other with a little romance thrown in with pirates and the hunt for buried treasure. Appealing to all ages but especially to young teens in my generation. I keep watching the TV guide hoping that it will be programmed so that I can sit down with my grandchildren to watch it again. What about a sequel " The truth about fall"!
