 Sad but very watchable family movie September 19, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This movie is in the tradition of "Old Yeller" and "The Red Pony" -- it's taken from a popular children's book, and it has been made into a very watchable film. Journeyman actors such as Keith Carradine are very convincing in a story about a family's life and survival in the wilderness.
This makes a good movie for a family movie night, but I would then mix it up with something lighter to make for a nice contrast. Two of my older children, teenaged girls, who were baby-sitting three younger cousins (2 boys and one girl under age ten), and my husband, myself and my dad all watched this together and we were all enthralled. The three girls cried, and I was a little misty myself. So I was glad to put in "Enchanted" afterwards, which we all loved, also. (see my review Enchanted (Widescreen Edition)
Very good but very sad February 20, 2008

This was a very sad movie, it made me cry several times, but this was a real picture, no sugar coated fairy tale, of a life back in time when new settler's were going to the unknown and dealing with illness and wild west. I have two kids, son and daughter, so I very well could relate to the mom in this story. Heartbreaking, but true.
 Great story of commitment and perseverance February 13, 2008

The Sign of the Beaver is a story of inspiration for the entire family. My fourth grade son read the book at school and said that it was the best book he had ever read. We watched the movie for family movie night and we loved it. It demonstrates a family's love, perseverance, and committment.
