thompsonlarry-35168 This is what indie film can be! The look and direction of the film by Don Swanson is excellent and accentuated all the more by the haunting score by Mark D'Errico. The two leads, Naysa Altmeyer and Alexa Mechling, shine in their parts and Conner McClain does a nice job as Derrick considering the material he was working from as the writing is this movie's weak point. The plot around Derrick gets muddled and a lot of his dialogue is just bad, which brings me to the writer and producer, Aaron Dunbar. He gave a Q/A after the screening and managed to never really mention anybody that made his book into a movie for him; needless to say I was less than impressed. However, despite a few pitfalls, the production and cast of A Wish for Giants raises this film beyond what it easily could've been and is a shining example of what independent filmmaking can be!

piterry The filmmakers did a professional job, the music was excellent and what a take on the big hairy guy, very well done! The rich kid was a little much, but the story of the two lead girls and the wish was handled and portrayed beautifully - great job!

ahlittlefield-88730 I really enjoyed this independent film. The performances from the actors were very solid and the adaption to film from the source material was really well done. It's a truly inspiring film to be enjoyed by all ages. This will hopefully give some spotlight to the hardworking indie filmmakers from this area of the country that we sometimes overlook. Definitely recommend a viewing.

sandystittler I got the chance to check this out this weekend and thought that the actors all did a great job and that the movie looked and felt like a real movie, but the story was a mess. Without going into spoilers, there are characters and subplots that don't do anything other than take away from the main story of the little sick girl and the woman working to grant her wish. It looks professional with good performances, but it just doesn't make a lot of sense.
