      Rebecca R I genuinely loved this heartwarming, positive, inspirational, anti-bullying movie. It was rated G, & a breath of fresh air. The characters were perfect, with some super stars in the lead roles. It would be a great place to start a conversation about bullying. Hollywood give us more movies like this. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/31/23 Full Review Audience Member moondance Alexander was a incredible movie I definitely enjoyed this film because horses are my number 1 favourite animal in the world this inspired me to get involved in horse jumping I would definitely watch this movie again ð? Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member This was a very sweet underdog story. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Stephen S Not bad. Kind of middle-of-the-road hallmark film. Still interesting to watch. Kay Panabaker is a fantastic lead though...I don't know if this is some kind of saga/book series or anything, but she was a great choice to play the protagonist. Anyway, this film isn't anything special, but still enjoyable to watch, and that's the point, isn't it? Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/11/14 Full Review Audience Member It's not terrible, but hugely disappointing and so cliche. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Moondance Alexander is a Wonderful Family film, Directed by Michael Damian. He's as Talented in Directing as he is in Singing & Acting. This is a Heartwarming Film, that will have you in Tears on occasion. So please make sure you have a Box of Tissue with you handy. :) I Love this movie. It's One of My Favorites. :) Way to Go Michael! You Rock! :) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Sean P. Means Salt Lake Tribune This family drama... tries so hard to be warm and uplifting that you keep rooting for it to be better than it is. Rated: 2/4 Oct 20, 2007 Full Review Jeff Vice Deseret News (Salt Lake City) It's certainly not terrible, but why the filmmakers didn't just ship it straight to video or cable is anyone's guess. Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 19, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews
