Movie Review-- Iron Will



Iron Will



Genre: Family/Adventure


Summary: A young man undertakes a treacherous dogsled race for his late father

My grade: %90

Pros:
  • Genuinely good entertainment
  • Good lessons about a young man growing up
  • Well-trained dogs
  • Not weak action
  • Good acting by Will- never seen again- and Kevin Spacey, the scoundrel
Cons:
  • The casual (quick) glance at Native American worship that really struck me as the pagan ceremony it truly is
  • Again, the "follow your dreams" undertone
  • A few swear words

One of my favorites. I agree on the pagan ritual scene. Sad, very sad. I am so thankful for Jesus who saved me from that!

Gabe, Lauren, and I just watched that movie a few days ago.

I was struck by the part where Will puts a gun to the husky guy's head and says, "You tried to hurt my dog! I should kill you!"

really?
