It's a family film that deals with real problems and teaches real values, and yet is exciting and entertaining.
70
An honorable, squeaky-clean children's drama, this is notable for its relatively penetrating morality and for Scott Wilson's fine performance as the meanest man in town.
70
Solid family fare. Like its source material, the Missouri-shot Saving Shiloh is down-home country without condescending to hicks from the sticks.
70
May be naive and narratively simple, but it's prime fare for the always underserved family audience.

Saving Shiloh takes place in 2005, but in its setting and sensibility, it feels like 1930s Walton's Mountain.
50
Based on the last book in Phyllis Reynolds Naylor's award-winning trilogy, this third installment in the family-friendly "Shiloh" series is perfect for anyone who wishes "The Waltons" was still around.

An OK kids movie passing through on the way to video.

This may be a personal bias as I grew up with this film as a child and loved it and would have ignored a lot of its flaws in the writing but this was personally one of my most beloved films as a child, Highly recommended for those who love films relating to dogs.
