How did I ever miss seeing this movie the first time it was released? This film is an absolute gem! Looking for something the whole family can watch together? Look no further. This re-release contains bonus material as well. Enjoy!
Its a fun, entertaining, feel good,(safe for any and everyone to see because it has morals and is appropriate ) story of love and hardship. They value all life and it showcases the God given grace families must have for one another to…

One of my favorite underrated movies of all time. It's a great heart-warming story that made me laugh and cry. It's family friendly and fun for all ages. Might need to go pop som popcorn and watch it again soon!

Secondhand Lions is an enjoyable family movie. I laughed a lot. The movie industry doesn't make many of these kind of movies anymore, so it gets 5 stars.
This family friendly comedy gives delightful insight into why the old and the young need each other. Youth can benefit from their elders wisdom and the elderly are reminded that there are still many adventures to be had.
I will never tire…

5 stars!! Great story, about REAL men - not politically correct. Duvall and Caine give wonderful, believable performances; story is hilarious at times. Scene with young punks in saloon is priceless. A great family film the kids should see.

VERY GOOD 2003 film with sophisticated aging plot - and more written by Tim McCanlies.
There is significant inner-outer/back and forth memory aspects as it mixes youth and old age 'growing up'.
Might have to see it a couple times for me…

Two aging actors reminiscent of the heady days when movies included acting, plot, suspense, smiles.... a worthy movie, a fun one, and a crying shame there aren't 50 years more coming from these two guys.

charming movie...wouldnt recommend it for children (gunplay, get lion so they can shoot it, mother dumps son, etc).
Think its more for adults who are willing to leave their "maturity" behind and indulge in some whimsy
