If you have a daughter or a young girl to take to this movie it is worth seeing.
While there is a lot of hype around about Dakota Fanning, I thought she was given a persona that was too wordly-wise and adult for her supposed age. She acted like a wizened urban teen - not a farm girl. I do not particularly like her actually. I will admit she has a strong stage presence.
Similarly, the mother was mis-cast. I thought the mother was far too pretty and smooth to be a credible "farm wife." I think the scenery was beautiful and well filmed. I felt that the evil guy was very well cast.
There should have been a dog in the film.
Kurt Russell did a superb job of acting. It was not that difficult of a role but he nailed it. And Kris K. did his normal effortless job of just being himself - and it worked to a tee.
