- GoofsWhen Janet picks flowers, they give zero resistance to her pull and all come out with neatly clipped stems. It's very obvious that the flowers were pre-cut and inserted in the ground material by prop gaffers.

Featured review
Has the "look and feel" of a Disney adventure film
Two very young children who were on vacation visiting their father and stepmother are scheduled to be sent home by a commercial airline to their mother. Unfortunately the plane disappears and their estranged father who is a pilot immediately goes into search mode. The kids birth mother also is a pilot and she flies her own plane to the site where her children disappeared from.
The two estranged parents, both seasoned pilots, very quickly come to terms as to why they got divorced when the argument escalates regarding which is the best plan to find their missing children.
While the parents travel on alternate flight patterns searching the sky for their children in case they survived the crash, the audience sees how these two young children who miraculously survived the crash are now laid bare to the whims of the wilderness and the wild animals who hunt to kill. I felt this film had the look and feel of a family adventure film that the Walt Disney studio may have released.
The acting was good, the story line holds true to being an adventure film, and the ending which I will not give away was worth waiting for. I give this near seventy (70) year old film a decent 6 out of 10 IMDB rating and would recommend it to others as a two thumbs up film.
