Great to have a movie for the kids that's not animated - even better that it's a true story. The way they handled the scenes with Reagan was just terrible, but other than that we thoroughly enjoyed the film.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Great "Feel Good" Movie

"Big Miracle" plays to all audiences and is a "Feel Good" movie. It's entertaining, emotional, light-hearted and at times funny.
Based on a true story, local newsman Adam Carlson (Krasinski) is about to leave his "Coldest" assignment to date. He's been reporting the news from the northern most tip of Alaska where the temperatures dip to -50 degrees (Brrrrrrr). Adam has been looking forward to returning to the "Big News" market and some warmer temperatures, but after he reports a minor story about 3 trapped whales in this far away cold Alaskan town it draws attention from a lot of news people and the head of Green Peace (Barrymore) who then come to Alaska and chase the story along with him. The story unfolds from there...
This is a very well told story. It's a bit long, but does arrive at the end intact. There is a lot of real life news footage showing Peter Jennings, Tom Brokaw and Dan Rather, this really gives the story meaning.
There are lots of panoramic views of a very snowy, icy and cold Alaskan Landscape!!
"Big Miracle" tells a very humane story. It's not just another "Whale" tale. It's definitely worth seeing.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

They kept closer to the actual story than I expected. I enjoed the pictures and videos of the real people at the end.
I went prepared with a handful of tissues used them all. Really loved the movie, the entire theater clapped at the end.
Heartwarming family movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Took the grand kids to see this movie on opening day, along with their mother and grandmother. All of us thought it was a great movie. A little heart wrenching in places, but it wasn't overwhelming for an 8 year old. Also a great look back in history.
And stay for the credits where they show the real-life persons associated with this story next to their counterpart actors.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
