Charlie & Me
My family thought Charlie & Me was excellent.It is a family movie and is very touching to the heart. We can't wait till it comes out on DVD so it can be added to our collection. It is very loving when a grandpa steps in and helps be there for grandchild when parent can't. It also is a very bonding movie. I wouldn't change anything. We enjoyed the all of the movie but when she put up the lines from her home to gr-amps home so they could communicate back and forth that was very touching the whole movie was very touching. It is a real tear jerker my child and can relate since his father was never there for him. Grandpa was Casey's her whole world. But however, she needed her father also.

Charlie and Me was one of the best movies my husband and I have ever watched.
This movie was a movie that I would love to view with my grown children and my grandchildren. Tom Bosley is an excellent actor and the young girl who played Casey was amazing. It was so real watching Casey and her grandpa's closeness as she helped him and learned from him. Our daughter had this closeness with her grandpa, especially when he was sick and taken to the hospital and the doctors said there was no hope and she laid on his bedside and prayed that he would live. And he did for 10 more years. She was only 8 at the time. Taking time for the ones you love is so much more important that working your life away as we did sometimes as parents.
Tom Bosley is a force
I really appreciated this movie. While it was dramatic and sad, it was heartfelt and had a secular tone. In one of Tom Bosley's last roles, he plays a sweet and slightly curmudgeon grandfather who shares a special bond with his granddaughter. After a heart attack nearly costs him his life, Gramps gives her a sincere lesson on how to live a quality life and cope with loss. Gramps also helps her learn how to cope with her fear of public speaking and to interact with a male classmate.
The "tie in" (pun intended) to jazz music also strengthened this movie. For a Hallmark movie, the acting and scenery was strong. It's a perfect film for everyone, young and old.

Excellent Family Fare
A beautiful portrayal of a relationship between young and old. Most movies of this kind extend reality a bit as does this movie. The work the actress playing Casey was moving. If you are not touched by this movie you have no heart.
