Movie Reviews of Hidden PlacesMovie Review: "There's An Angel Behind Every Blade Of Grass" Summary: 5 Stars
While `Hidden Places' ('06) isn't a Hallmark Production it certainly has the feel of one; strong production values, endearing cast, simple straightforward plot and a happy ending designed to warm the heart of the most jaded amongst us.
The lovely Sydney Penny is absolutely fantastic as Eliza and Jason Gedrick delivers a strong but subdued performance as the new man in her life. They work quite well together and it is their chemistry that raises this film to another level. The supporting cast is also first rate, adding lots of personality and texture to the story. I'm sure you'll recognize a number of them; Shirley Jones, Barry Corbin and Tom Bosley lead the list.
The story is good, old fashioned drama/romance emphasizing the importance of faith, family, and community. If you enjoy wholesome, family-oriented entertainment similar to "Little House On The Prarie" you'll love this one. Gather the family together and get the popcorn!
Movie Review: A Hidden Gem Summary: 5 Stars
This film is a gem. Sydney Penny is perfect in this lovely story as a young, beautiful widow with two children who has her faith tested when everything seems to go wrong in her life. There is something about Penny's performance that is subtle yet strong, as well as delicate but very moving. And of course she is such a natural beauty that all those qualities become even more appealing. And Jason Gedrick also does a fine job as the mysterious war veteran with the goood manners and kind ways that draws Penny into a sweet relationship with this gentle but strong man. Throw in the great Shirley Jones as the ever prodding and full-of-faith Aunt Batty, and you have a wonderful story and beautifully produced film that tugs at the heart and delivers such a heart-warming finish that you will want to play this one over again, and again. It is a little "jewel", just like the lead actress, Sydney Penny.

Movie Review: Thumbs Up Summary: 5 Stars
I thoroughly enjoy this movie. It is a refreshing respite from violence and trash-talk films.
I recommend it as a wholesome movie for the whole family. It takes place in a more innocent time when people truly cared about each other. The storyline is believable and the cast does a superb job. If you like movies like "Cross Creek" then you will benefit from buying this movie.
Movie Review: Hallmark brings another gem Summary: 5 Stars
I found this movie on amazon.com by searching for Hallmark movies. My experience with these movies has been very satisfying. I am always looking for clean stories based on family values. I don't add anything to my collection that I would be embarrassed to share with any friend or family member. This is such a heart warming story and so well acted.
