Directed by Michael Landon, Jr., Saving Sarah Cain is a sweet film with an Afterschool Special vibe about a family thrown together by unfortunate circumstances. When her Amish sister dies, Sarah (Lisa Pepper, What About Brian) is forced to question her priorities. Should she move to Pennsylvania where the children feel safe within their Amish community, or should she relocate them to Oregon where she has a successful career as a newspaper columnist? Presuming that the children are more adaptable than she is, Sarah opts for the latter and gives it a shot at making the kids feel at home. But the five orphans have a difficult time trying to fit in to the modern world. They also are still grieving the loss of their mother, whose ways were much different than that of their more abrupt aunt. Like his father, the younger Landon has a deft touch at creating scenarios that are heart-tugging, but not too maudlin. The fish-out-of-water concept isn't a new one, but it's executed well by both Pepper and the young actors portraying the children. Though the film tries to force a surprise ending, the outcome is expected and welcome. And while no one has a miraculous change of heart, the viewer can see that the sextet is creating its own kind of family--one that works for within the frame of their unique circumstances. --Jae-Ha Kim

Disappointed November 24, 2008
My wife and I watched this movie together and were very disappointed in it as a supposed movie of Christian values. The immodest and worldly dress, particularly of Sarah Cain and her competition writer at the newspaper made it difficult to watch. There was absolutely no reason to have their cleavage, and more, showing. (What was the purpose?) The story would have been just as powerful as far as getting the point across of the differences between the Amish and the city people without their cleavage showing and the tight clothes. This has been billed as a family movie, but we would NOT recommend this movie to ANYONE because of the immodest dress. We will not watch it again. Also, I was quite disappointed that there are so many reviews claiming it was a movie you could watch with your family, seemingly ignoring the immodest dress. From the reviews, it seems we are the exception in this day and age with concerns about immodest dress.

Grab a tissue and be ready for a beautiful story! November 24, 2008
If you aren't familiar with Amish family life, this will give a a little insight. A non-amish family member becomes the guardian to five amish children through an unusual turn of events. You will love this movie. It was funny, interesting, inspirational and a real tearjerker. It gave you insight into a world that is different for most people. I highly reccommend it. Bevery Lewis,the author of the book,is one of my favorite authors.

The Priceless Value of Family October 19, 2008
We purchased this movie after seeing an interview with the director and watching some of the highlights. Television and movies have been absent of great programs that promote the family and benefits of family values for to long. Our whole family enjoyed this movie together and we all shed a few tears and at the end we all agreed that it was a very good movie.

Good message but SAD October 10, 2008
When will christian based movies not have tragedy in them?!! There were a few good things that i was able to use to teach my children about being an influence for christ and not becoming culturally polluted with the world's living. So, that was good. BUT, the whole movie, save about 10 minutes is sad. Death, loneliness, lying, despair...the list goes on. It's moving, and convicting to stay strong to your beliefs in Christ Jesus, but i know there must be other ways to do it without adding such sorrow. Acting was good, quality was great; story line sad.
