Movie Reviews of Follow Me, Boys!
Movie Review: A wonderful gift...
Summary: 5 Stars
Follow Me Boys is a wonderful Disney classic. The movie follows the life of a man who is looking for a way to settle down, and volunteers to become the town's Boy Scout Master more as a vehicle to impress a lady than anything else.
The character does give the Scouts his all, and overtime grows to care for the boys as if they were his own sons. We see the boys grow up and in the end see how one of the most troubled becomes the town's doctor.
As a Scout Leader myself, I think this movie is a wonderful tribute to thsoe people who voluntarily give so much of themselves to shape the lives of our children. This film is a wonderful gift to give to the Scout Leader, and a wonderful family film too.
Movie Review: very wonderful family film
Summary: 5 Stars
Likely a lot of kids will not relate to this film, because this sort of family film is rarely made these days. Fred MacMurry (My Three Sons) decides three sons is not enough and takes on a whole troop of them - other peoples as he becomes a reluctant scoutmaster. Slowly he throws himself into the idea. As I say, kids my not warm to this Baden-Powell wholesomeness, but who knows, they might surprise you. A very young Kurt Russell plays tough boy that MacMurry wins over.Interesting point: at the end when you see his "boys" all grown up, take note of William Reynolds as Hoodoo Henderson as a Man (FBI, The Thing That Couldn't Die). He played MacMurray's son in There's Always Tomorrow (1956).
Movie Review: Down Memory Lane
Summary: 5 Stars
I first saw this movie in the theater in 1966. It was rated as "too hokey and sugar sweet". At that time, as a high school student, I was compelled to write a letter to the local newspaper in defense of this wholesome and inspiring movie. I have been searching for a copy for the past 16 years since my son joined scouting. Today, at last, I am a proud owner of this terrific, inspirational film. The quality of both sound and picture is terrific, and it is refreshing to remember a world where people cared for and loved one another. It is also a great testimonial to the spirit of scounting. This is a must have for your collection!Movie Review: Great Movie for Families and Scouters
Summary: 5 Stars
I found out about this movie from my Scoutmaster, it was one of his favorite movies and He was sad that all he owned was an old VHS recording from the Disney Channel "Back in the Day" I was going to transfer it to DVD when I found this on Amazon.com. A great buy and a great movie. Ordered a copy for myself and I know that he ordered one for himself. I have shared my copy with many friends, all of whom liked it a lot, and a few even whent and bought their own copy. Great Family Film and a Great Perspective on scouting. If you have ever been a scout or support Scouting in any way I Highly recomend buying this film.Movie Review: AHHHH those were the days...
Summary: 5 Stars
The days when a man could be a boy scout leader and no one suspects hanky panky. it's sad, isn't it? how we got to be so corrupt and suspicious. anyway, the movie - it's GREAT! back in the day when a boy could play outside and get dirty, and have friends, and go camping and hiking - instead of being planted in front of the dam boob tube, or Nintendo -
Fred MacMurray is wonderfull, the kid - Kurt Russell's debute, by the way, was sweet and believable. the mom, sweet and so June Cleaver-ish. the heartach, the joys - it's all good.
i guess i can say, i really like this movie. buy it.
