While a cute story with a cute idea behind it this is one kids movie I can not get behind the plot was under developed not well though out and it seamed rushed to me the movie its self moved way to fat for the likes of me i would have liked more character development like more information on Gator and his background the dads Job and so fourth and so on . The story was under developed and very poorly executed the the idea of a kid Dective is not a bad one I agree with the idea of this film but it kneads a lot more work
this is a fil for the kids Not rely for us grown ups

Every young and young at heart adventurer should see this film over and over again, Ace Wonder is on his way to becoming the next big Sherlock Holmes. This film has a Dove Foundation approval making it enjoyable for the entire family to watch, a plus for those of us who like good clean movies. This flick has every emotion one could have and a plot to keep you hanging on. Gator and Derek play great leads and hold the movie together. John Moore has proved once again what a great and wonderful talent he has, kudos John. Keep up the excellent work and we all look forward to your next big hit, hopefully we see more of the Great Detective - Ace Wonder.
I love this movie. It has a good story line. It moved at a good pace, and kept my attention. The plot was well-woven. The use of the graphic novel sub-theme was very appealing. it's really a great movie for the whole family to watch together. And it's amazingly well-done for what seems to be a private venture. I did not know that many of the main characters were not professional actors until doing some research. I tried to find out more, without much success, but the Moore family are in the film using their real names, and were involved in the production and other aspects. What ever became of Gator Moore? I hope they read this, and would consider making more films like this one.
I disagree with the negative reviews, and highly recommend this movie as good clean family fun. There aren't many films that I can say that about in recent years.
I did not give it a ten, because I reserve that honor to only a select few, but this film came very close in my opinion.

I it is very curious how the few 10/10 ratings sound like promos for the movie. They all seem to have a lot of info about the production, have the same basic concepts in them and the overall feel of a sales pitch. On the other hand, the lower ratings are written with different styles and they each have their own thoughts about the movie. I also noticed the high ratings don't speak in the first person as all of the others do. The low ratings say stuff like "I thought" or "I felt like this part..." while the high ratings read like the back part of the DVD case.

I am so happy to have found this gem in Amazon Prime video. It was charmingly unaffected and very well put together. The plot was interesting from the first scene. It not only kept my attention, I was caught up in the mystery and enjoyed each and every moment that these wonderful characters were on screen working together. I found the main characters extremely likable and relatable. Some reviewers stated "how horrible" the acting was. They are apparently far to self-important to be able to appreciate this great film for what it is; a refreshingly fun, family friendly mystery with an interesting set of characters in a beautiful location that put a smile on my face. I hope you will give it a watch. I also hope that Mr. Moore and his family will be kind enough to grace us with at least another Ace Wonder movie.
