I enjoy this movie and have watched more than once. The characters in the family are all appealing. They are people caught up in our high tech society who become stranded in a dying town. I loved how they started to enjoy life in the town and the ending was comforting and appealing. I gave it a couple extra stars because it is being rated so low by some people and does not deserve it. The cast is excellent. Besides, I'm a sucker for small town diners.

I hope to see more of azer, how do you pronounce his entire name, by the way. I know young men hate to be called precious, but that's exactly what he is. I'm a southern grandma, so I'm allowed.

and yes, I saw every episode of NCIS with his mom, ms. holly, and will watch her again, if cable gives me the chance. thank you for letting talent run in the family!

I also fell absolutely in love with the father, and will search IMDb for more chances to see his work. I'm betting I've been married longer than he's been alive, or at least close. 48 years, mr. Roberts? or you look young for your age, and thanks for an unexpected ending.

They need to make more movies like this. It's not slick but has a "good feeling". If they made more movies like this the price of admission could be a lot less at the box office. Yes it's fairly predictable but shows how these rural communities suffer.

It's about a yuppie family who gets stranded in the Colorado mountains and has their car breaks down and they have to stay over in this small town and adjust to rural life. A good lesson for any big city people (we've been both). Especially meaningful in these new depression times! How the other half lives!

If you want to learn the mindset of how these rural areas live and struggle. Has a good ending!
