Nothing bad to say. Really enjoyable film to watch. Follow the clues and don't jump to conclusions. One of the best movies to sit and watch with your kids. Don't believe negative reviews. May be too clean for some looking for more raunch. Best of all worlds. Clean, fun, mystery. Lot of action. Great characters. Gator is my favorite (ace). He pulls it all together. Christian family production who also did Widows Mite. You will be glad you watched this. Sequel should be in wings. Another Sherlock Holmes in the making. You try to piece the evidence to solve the mystery but you need the characters to help you. Teamwork. Don't give up. Great role models and lessons to learn
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.
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

Ace Wonder is a great movie for family night! This fun film has it all, action, humor, lovable characters, and a great mystery. This is one film you'll want to watch again and again with the whole family.
Ace Wonder is a boy detective, a Sherlock Holmes wannabe, but he has a hard time coming up with a "truly brilliant mystery." When his family's RV breaks down in a Podunk town, he stumbles upon a mystery involving messages from a dead man.
Derek is heartbroken upon his grandfathers death, regretful that he was unable to spend more time with him. When a mysterious message addressed to Derek appears at the funeral, he has to follow the clues. But it seems they all lead to only dead ends. What Derek needs is help, help from an expert detective. What he needs is Ace Wonder.
This is an adventure the whole family is sure to love. It's Sherlock Holmes and Indiana Jones wrapped up in a cute little kid.

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.
