Clancy

To me, a film is good if it accomplishes one or more of my list of desires as I watch a movie: entertainment, escape, teaching, beauty, display of great skill whether it's an actor, costumer, music score or whatever.

This movie, despite a lower budget than some, hits a home run with talent and teaching, and in the long run, beauty.

My suggestion would be to watch it and relax... enjoy the ride. Don't put expectations on it because.... it simply has something to teach you. But don't look for it... just let it roll into your heart.

I LOVED the relationship that develops between two unlikely characters. Really nice natural acting and the truth is there are valuable relationships all over the place between "unlikely" people. There are a lot of other important truths displayed in this wonderful film as well.

I highly recommend this film. Don't expect a classic or a lush budgeted movie. But if you appreciate deep truth I believe you'll like it a lot.

Appropriate for teens and above but for younger kids I'd view it first then decide. Not for little ones due to some necessary violence and intense issues. This film is worth seeking out.

This movie will bring you to tears, but it is all about God and how much love a person has for someone they didn't know

I was especially touched by "Clancy". The message of unconditional love through very trying and painful life circumstances grabbed at my heart. This film made it very clear that our attitudes in life toward what is happening to us is much more important than the trial itself (that we are going through). The message of the Cross of Christ really came through to me. When it says in the Bible that 'love covers many faults...', this underlying message is proclaimed in 'Clancy.' I also loved being able to see the results of loving as Christ loves. It changes everything about us and gives us hope for tomorrow. The simplicity of the gospel and the true power of unconditional love truly overwhelmed me in this film. The love of Christ can change our hearts, our relationships and ultimately--our world--if we would only choose to embrace it.

I loved the movie, it was simple but a clean family film. I shed tears and think more people need to watch films like this.

As an individual endeavoring to pursue a Christian lifestyle toward (hopefully) true and effective discipleship to Jesus Christ and who considers himself to be in the "final season" of his life I would recommend this film as a beneficial opportunity for self-examination. Though presented with different parental dynamics of dysfunctional relationship patterns I regard the severity of impact toward destructive self-behavior to be of similar magnitude. What tends to challenge my tendency toward skepticism about human behavior is the steadfastness of integrity and character that some people exhibit (Clancy in this case) through the trials and tribulations of this life. I followed an entirely different path commencing with confusion, loss of trust, fear, resentment and ultimately hatred and bitterness ("hardness of heart"), the affects of which I contend to this day in my walk with the Lord (Forgiveness but yet accountability for one's actions and choices). As with life, the ending may not be what we would have preferred but I appreciate the provocative elements of this films for the stimulation to my cerebral considerations about what I am going to do in response to life's confrontations and challenges.
