"The Hill" has its heart in the right place, that's for sure. It's a sincere movie. It tells its story in a nice way. The cast is, for the most part, likeable. The performances, for the most part, are well done. The standouts are Dennis Quaid and Jesse Berry. There one weak link, however. The normally dependable Bonnie Bedelia. Bedelia is 75 years old. She is by any definition an old lady. In "The Hill" plays an old lady like an "old lady". For the longest time I though they cast a young actress to play the part. After an hour or so I checked IMDB and discovered it was actually Bedelia in the movie.
