The Golden Seal (1983)
Member Rating:  
The Golden Seal manages to be excellent family entertainment without ever resorting to gimmickry or phony sentimentality. The story focuses on a family living in the Aleutian Islands. The father, Jim Lee (Steve Railsback), has long been awaiting the return of the fabled golden seal, which comes to the islands to give birth every seven years. Like many of the other locals, Jim intends to capture the seal and turn it in for a huge reward. But Jim's 10-year-old son Eric (Torquil Campbell) endeavors to save the golden seal from harm. Told in a leisurely, unforced fashion, The Golden Seal is a fairly faithful adaptation of A River Ran Out of Eden, a novel by James Vance Marshall. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    The sleeve on this says, "manages to be excellent family entertainment..." NOT! There are several curse words, lots of fighting, and at one point a character says, "I won't rape your sister." Lovely. Fortunately, my kids left the room disgusted. Total waste of time.

    I really didn't like this movie. It was very slow paced and also used a lot of bad language, even the kid uses the bad language quite a few times. Not really for children, as I expected it to be.

    Really bad - waste of time - full of unneeded curse words and just really terrible acting.
