5.0 out of 5 stars A New Holiday Classic, November 22, 2003

PEDIATRICIAN IN PA (Sarver, PA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Angel Doll (DVD)

This movie is a story of love, sacrifice and giving. The film is set in the 1950s in North Carolina. A boy from an impoverished family tries to find a way to buy his younger sister with polio an angel doll for Christmas, to accompany her favorite book, "The Littlest Angel." The child actors are superb. The story is extemely touching. The movie is for everyone. It will be given to many of my friends and family this and every Christmas.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE ANGEL DOLL, March 11, 2005

mybabies "mybabies" (CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Angel Doll (DVD)

I have watched this movie at LEAST 3 times! The young boy who plays WHITEY is EXCELLENT! The rest of the cast are fantastic.

The movie touches on predjudices and on CHOOSING how to act and beleive.

This IS a sad movie but one EVERYONE should watch. EXTREMELY WONDERFUL!

That a boy should love his sister so much that he spends his salary to buy her a special doll, is so heartwarming. It also shows how special friendships can be.

If you have not seen it DO SO! You will miss out on a great movie if you do not!

3.0 out of 5 stars Inappropriate scenes for children, December 21, 2004

By

This review is from: The Angel Doll (DVD)

Angel Doll was a sweet, heart warming movie. Unfortunately, there were two scenes that ruined it as a family movie. The first was inappropriate shot of a customer's heavily endowed and exposed (on purpose) chest of one of the boy's customer on his paper route. The boys dicuss the display at a camp-out with the word "boob" being banted around excessively. Are they marketing this movie to families or to pre-teen boys? The other scense had nothing at all to contribute to the movie. It showed the main character showing his buddy how to rip off candy with out getting caught.
I thought the over all movie was great. I really enjoyed it when I didn't think about the inappropriate scenes to which I had just exposed my children.
