Secondhand Lions Worth a second Glance and 3rd, 4th.....

One of most delightful movies of all time.



It is rich in relationships and great dialogue.  Michael Caine and Robert Duvall provide a perfect counter balance for one another.  Their back forth comments are superb and give insight into their characters.

I have watched this movie several times and grin almost the whole time I watch it. 

There are several scenes that evoke a chuckle just thinking about them: lion hunting, gardening, past adventures, café confrontation with young thugs, etc. 

The movie has many tender moments between the great nephew and the great uncles.

We liked it so much it is one of the few movies we bought on DVD in years.

Enjoy it as a family movie and treasure it often
