A great getaway film!
FILMS4EARTH121 October 2021
Eric Roberts comes through in this great independent film about loss & redemption! Beautiful scenery of the Pacific Northwest! If you love animals & nature this is a good one!

Worst movie ever?
InsightfulCritic28 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Yes, this is probably the worst movie ever made.

Eric Roberts is hardly in it and when he is it looks like it was shot on a 90s camcorder. The convoluted story follows a hiker through the woods, but trying to figure out what it is about, good luck.

It could have been bad as in bad funny, but, no, it's really just bad. This looks like it was shot and edited by student.

Just terrible... like really terrible
MovieCriticOnline28 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I guess you give amateurs a bit of slack, but not this much. This was quite embarrassing to watch. The production was below student entry, which isn't a good thing.

Story is supposed to be about a guy hiking through the wilderness, and let me tell you this is no "Into the Wild," or "Wild" with Reese Whiterspoon. It's almost like it was shot using video cameras from 1981. It's super amateurish, almost laughable. No, actually, very laughable.

I could barely understand the writing or characters.

BIG TIME SKIP!!

No...and Heck No...and more importantly Why?
fritz-11429 July 2023
Why anyone feels this bit of film deserves a 10 star review is beyond me....perhaps it was released in 2021 when everyone was in lockdown so they felt good about seeing someone outside without a mask in Oregon. Let me tell you if you think hiking alongside the I-84 is wilderness than maybe it is for you...the scenes are un-edited as far as I could tell...and the acting? Horrendous...spare yourself and pass this one up...even if you are an Eric Roberts fan this one is just plain not worth it! If you are a fan of the Columbia River Gorge you too will suffer dissapointment as this fails the cinematography bar for the area.

Really enjoyed this one!
davebecker-9987623 October 2021
This is a nice little indie film that follows a man in mourning with his dog through the wilderness to find peace & hope. This feels like an old school film with very memorable scenes & amazing snow transitions. The ending has a nice twist that I did not expect!

Good for the family
linaestrada-5287424 October 2021
My kids love it! Vary pretty outdoors with cute animals and no bad cussing. I like the man and dog journey through the woods looking at beautiful trees, rivers, waterfalls, animals. Music very peaceful make me cry at the end then happy too. Did not know secret at the end ;-) Kids watch it again too!

Great faith based film
qiangxing-7816824 October 2021
Good to see wholesome movie about faith and moving forward. The beautiful landscape is magnificent & the waterfalls are lovely. Oregon seems very majestic will have to visit there soon! This reminded me of the movie Wild & Into the Wild but with a pretty dog! We love Eric Roberts in China so get some popcorn & enjoy!

The dog is a star!
emiliog-6682425 October 2021
We love the dog Sofia & what she was able to accomplish on the long journey through sun, rain, sleet, & snow! The others actors did held their own with Sofia. We watched Wild the other day & this reminds us of that one. It does start slow but once Sofia gets on the trails its heaven on earth!

Soul Pursuit is a movie of HOPE
Lee09295421 October 2021
If you are going through a loss or just down in the dumps, Soul Pursuit could be what you need to feel better again. Yes this is a low budget indie film, but, it's truly full of heart & Soul, no pun intended. This is a great outdoor flick & good for the whole family. Ending bloopers are also fantastic!

A gorgeous outdoors movie!
Tanimal737321 October 2021
I watched this little film last night & immediately fell in love with it! So I had to write a nice review. This is a very haunting and enchanting film at the same time. As a dog lover this is as good as it gets for me! The lead character guy did a great job & so did the entire cast. Excited to see more from this filmmaker, Larry Humphrey.

Colorful journey through the woods...
selmarios4 November 2021
As a lover of the outdoors and movies of the like, I stumbled across this great little film on Tubi. This is a story of a person getting away to the wild in solitude. The stars play short but meaningful roles and the newbie lead character does an amazing job keeping you engaged. Kinda moves slow but in a perfect way!

Honestly a very sweet & enchanting film!
EricaQtc21 October 2021
This is a very powerful independent film about the ultimate loss & trying to find PEACE within it. I live in the dirty city & it's very nice to get out of it in a movie like this. It literally feels like your on a hike with the main character & his adorable dog. The waterfall shots, especially the one at the end, are truly breathtaking! If you like gorgeously slow & easy then you'll love it!
