Hearing tales of their exotic adventures involving kidnapped princesses Arabian sheiks and lost treasure not only brings him closer to his uncles but also teaches him what it means to believe in something... whether it's true or not.Running Time: 109 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: CHILDREN/FAMILY UPC: 794043690426

If you can get past its thick layer of syrup and molasses, Secondhand Lions reveals itself as a thoroughly decent family film that anyone can enjoy. It gets a little sappy sometimes, but there's something to be said for a movie in which Michael Caine and Robert Duvall play eccentric old brothers who take the easy approach to fishing: instead of a peaceful rod and reel, they use 12-gauge shotguns. When 14-year-old Walter (Haley Joel Osment, teetering on puberty) spends an eventful summer with his great-uncles on their vast Texas farmland (he's been dumped there by his delinquent mom, played by Kyra Sedgwick), he soon discovers they've lived lives full of adventure, excitement, passion, and mystery. Either that or they're old-time bank robbers with a long criminal record, and writer-director Tim McCanlies (who invested similar warmth into The Iron Giant) does a nice job of concealing the truth until the very end. Full of enriching lessons and homespun humor, Secondhand Lions has more substance than most family films. If you enjoyed Holes, you'll probably enjoy this movie, too. --Jeff Shannon

Rating:  - defective DVD
The DVDs were delivered in a timely manner, however one of the DVDs was so scratched that we were unable to view it. We ordered 2 copies; one for us and one as a gift. Luckily we opened the defective one.
Rating:  - Secondhand Lions
This is the third or fourth dvd that I have obtained through amazon, and the first one with quality problems. There are a couple of areas in the dvd where skips appear.If I had bought this dvd at a local store I would have returned it for replacement.
As to delivery, no problem.
Rating: - "Take it from me JUST WATCH!"
This is a great movie about a kid with an imagination, a mother whose not so bright, and two amazing old men [with attitude!].
It's adventure, its comedy, and its a must watch if you like either. Take it from me JUST WATCH! You won't be disappointed.
