Aunt Bam's Place

My wife and I watched this because the movies lying around weren't looking that good... And I bought this a few months ago - just never got around to watching it.

I expected this to be a sort of 'silly, Aunt Bam' story. It started off that way, too. I almost didn't make it past the first 15 minutes. Somehow, a quarter of the way into the presentation, it pivoted and the real story came out.

The acting was pretty good. The music was unexpectedly powerful - both the vocals and the backgrounds (loved that electric guitar).

The message was what a lot of people need to hear. If a man is thirsty... give him something to drink. If he is in pain, help him find relief. I think that is what this is about. Even those who don't know how to even come to grips with their pain.

I am shocked at the low reviews on this. Is it 'Haters'? I don't understand how a good, simple message of hope and compassion can be derided.... and mocked. It makes me wonder how many actually watched this work. Tragic.

Thank you for providing some decent 'entertainment' that I could sit and watch with my family and not be embarrassed because of the content. (OK, so my daughter teases me when I tear up....) Hope the rest of you enjoy this.
