Miracle at Sage Creek (2005)

I love this movie so much

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

This was, to put it lightly, unwatchable garbage.My crap detector first went to orange alert when the two boys look for fire wood by sitting down and picking up the sticks in there immediate area and pile them together. This was then followed by a gun fight where people take cover behind barren shrubbery and don't get shot. Not only do they not get shot, they add in rickashay sound effects meaning that they aren't just retardedly bad shots, but the twigs are actually blocking to bullets.Who ever directed this film should be black listed and maybe checked for Alzheimer's or blindness.

I honestly can't see why all the critics on here; say bad things about good movies and good things about bad ones?Oh look at the scenery,oh pretty music,wow so real?One could not call this one realistic by any means.The husband gets attacked and shot by bad guys,falls over a cliff.They look for him once run into the bad guys give up looking.They did'nt tell anyone like the army, who is the law in them days that he's lost,shot,the bad guys?Never played up the feelings of the grandpa and Indian chief to get into the characters so we could feel good when they bonded?This was a very low,badly written movie.Take it for what it is, and it's a clean movie at least.Gary

My Dad and I just watched this movie, he's a pretty big fan of westerns like Lonesome Dove. We were confused at the beginning about the relationships of all the people. We finally figured out the main details (two families at odds with each other for various reasons). David Carradine was good and some of the other actors were OK. The main problem we had was about John (Tim Abell). He gets injured but when they cannot find him they just assume he's dead. What's up with that? I would at least want to find the body for a proper burial. Then the families all just decide to hang out for Christmas time dinner. John's wife doesn't even seem too upset - come on she thinks her husband just died! Starting at about 2/3 of the way into the movie my dad and I kept saying to each other "Where's John?". At the very end we got our answer but by then we didn't really even care. It seems like lots of you really liked the movie and I did like the spiritual messages. It is also a nice family movie. I just was a little annoyed with the John issue. Thanks.

I was particularly impressed with the story and the authenticity of the film. David Carridine was superb and I really liked the little boy who was cured by his grandfather. Wes Studi did a fantastic job. This is a great family film. I have children at home and it is really hard to find movies the whole family can enjoy together. The scenery in the movie was spectacular. The music was very appropriate as well. All in all, I would recommend this movie to all my friends and family. The story had so much to say about families and how important it is to stay together. Change is a part of life and we must learn to accept it. At the same time, however, we must respect the old ways as well. I believe this is the strong message in the film. I hope the producer of this film makes more like it. I will certainly like to see them. Thanks.
