Why in the world would casting put Sklyer Shaye as Teri Polo's daughter. Terrible dialogue; terrible acting; terrible storyline.

I recently tried to watch a when calls the heart movie without having seen the show. this was worse. the family is massively dysfunctional. the movie starts with an argument and doesn't go more than two minutes without at least one more. not only is there drama within the family (more what you'd expect from dallas than hallmark), but there are multiple tangled plot lines including the whole town. there is no introduction to the characters that isn't drama free making all of them unlikeable from the start and they don't get better in the first half. i stopped watching.

Watching paint dry could be more exciting. Bad plot, script, bad acting. I cannot believe that people are capable of producing such bad film. I had to stop watching. An insult to intellect. A very bad copy of the series "Dallas". Need I say more?

Plastic, fake ... so overdone with surgery and makeup, her acting completely underwhelming.

Voight and Caan turn in convincing performances but the movie plays like a pilot for a series. Its let down a bit by details such as California plated vehicles on a "Texas" ranch which is actually in Kentucky. Its entertaining but leaves you hanging a bit since they don't actually wrap things up. I know some political wackos will have their heads explode making a rancher the hero but the story is really a family feud storyline.

I'm no expert, but I don't think livestock in Kentucky is in danger from wolves. I didn't realize this was supposed to be Kentucky until the reviews said it. I assumed it was like Montana or somewhere where there might possibly be a wolf, and that much snow. I also found the plot that Caan's character shot his own son very bazaar. If Voight's character had been the Sheriff at that time, wouldn't he have known that the fellow rancher shot his own son?? If he didn't know, were they trying to say he shot his son, kept it a secret, buried the body and just said he ran off and never came back?? Why did his wife, who I assume was the mother, making her the grandmother of Polo's daughter, just sit there at the restaurant ?? Did she not know her husband shot their son?? Did he just bury his son in a pasture and tell everyone he ran away? If people knew about it, why was there no consequences for him? Very confusing plot!! I just watched this for the first time, because I saw the new one was on and hadn't seen the original one. I guess maybe I just think too much, but there were a lot of confusing and nonsensical plot lines here. You can't just shoot people and carry guns into federal agents homes. How did he even know where the agent lived!?! Anyhoo... I'll watch the new one, I may be even more flummoxed after that!!

A couple of veterans Jon Voight and James Caan are the patriarchs of a pair of Texas Montagues and Capulets and have had a family feud going on back 3 generations. It has to do with the involvement of Caan's son and Voight's daughter and what happened with them started the feud. Caan's grown rich in material things and Voight has a nice family and a big ranch and makes out OK. But Caan for reasons both venal and egotistical is trying very hard by hook or crook to steal some more of Voigt's land. That piece has a well and waters his and other neighbors around him. The two vets outstrip the others in the cast. Just calling them vets makes me feel old as I remember them both as breakout stars. The ending is right out of Frank Capra. Nice film for family wntertainment.

But why is no talent Melanie Griffith in it? How does this woman have an acting career. She talks like a little girl (which made her endearing un Working Girl - I guess she never grew up...). Not a fan of the young woman who plays the granddaughter either. She's just a mean person. This could gave been good with better casting and use of the GOOD cast (Voight, Caan, Polo).

I enjoyed it! Just seeing it for the first time! What a rich cast. I think it's rather cute--especially the part played so well by Jon Voight! CAn't wait to see the sequel! I wasn't expecting "Dallas"; that was truly a powerful feature series. And in a different era. We don't even get ANY westerns anymore--if not for Kevin Kostner, once in awhile. I just don't get why so many people went out of their way to be so critical and down right mean in their reviews.
