Love's Long Journey (2005 TV Movie)
5/10
Love's Long Journey -It's Still the Same Old Story **1/2
7 April 2009
Warning: Spoilers
Cliché ridden film with a young couple setting out to settle in the west. They're religious and Missy hasn't told her husband that she is with child.

He hires ranch hands who run the gamut from different groups. Of course, there is a menacing trio who keep putting on scarfs by their faces as they go along robbing along the countryside.

There are Indians next to our couple and it looks like our husband is about to be bias towards them until his loving lord fearing wife sets him straight on that matter.

Missy teaches the Indian children and when winter comes, school is let out. What would our current education secretary say about that?

One of the young robbers has a younger brother who idolizes him. The gang eventually threatens our lovely couple along with their hired hands. Sonny, the older brother, takes a bullet when he realizes that he is doing wrong. There is a brief dying scene by him as the preacher tells him about where he is going. Naturally, with his death, the young couple raise the younger brother as their own.

Along comes the baby and there is a season for everything. It's such a sweet Hallmark film. The theme has been repeated over and over again. Great for those in love with the settling of the frontier.
