The Girl on the Mountain

Jack Ward (Daniel O'Reilly) is a conductor who blames himself for the death of his daughter. He lives in the mountains and is suicidal. He meets a mute girl (Makenzie Sconce) who is on the run from an abusive father who killed her mother. She blames herself. After a week or so, after the two bond, the father (D. T. Carney) gets a posse to find and kill the girl who is a witness. The conductor being a Rambo survivalists didn't come off too well. Some could consider it heart warming, I couldn't get into it. Guide: no swearing, sex, or nudity.

HE was supposed to be in the wilderness but most of the paths he used were well used and lined with log. The four baddies were not very good actors or the director was happy with mediocre acting. The vehicle used by the Baddies must have the best battery in the world on a car, they went off into the forest leaving the headlights on but it started first time later. The death of the daughter was not very well thought out, a long straight road vehicle with headlights on and she walk 2/3 of the way across before being hit by the car.

The disgraceful thing about this movie is it should be good but the acting is cheesy and the script is worse, and the main baddie is so cliched that it's toe curling. One minute the mute kid is mute, the next she speaks then she's mute again. There's no depth to anything in this movie other than the mountains and wilderness.

This movie is like a suit with bad stitching. The most disappointing of it is the screenplay. So, given the screenplay, I would say that acting is OK most of the time, even though characters are barely sketched. I have to imagine the guilt and suffering of the man for loosing his daughter and to guess the emotion and the development of the bond and trust between the girl and the man, Big Al not really convincing, nor the fighting scenes, in the woods I would bet on the redneck, not on the orchestra conductor playing Rambo. Also the waitress at the end is quite hilarious getting scared by the knife.

Execution was awful. Just no common sense to a few details. The girls acting was superb. Jack's character was trying to be a hard mountain man but yet a sensitive artist. It just didn't work.

Daniel O'Reilly is definitely not suitable for this role (I don't know if he's suitable for any other role). If it's. Jim Caviezel.would have made the movie more profound and the plot it should be. Starting with the crying already make the movie looks crappy.

I want to watch this many times. I was filled with awe of the scenery. The impressive filming made me feel like I was flying. The main characters touched my heart. The story inspired me.

The Girl on the Mountain is an astonishingly beautiful, gorgeous film. Lead actors Daniel O'Reilly and Makenzie Sconce paint a powerful character sketch of loss, courage, redemption, and ultimate renewal. I expect both to become huge stars as they simply light up each scene they are in. O'Reilly is massively heroic as the flawed protagonist Jack Ward, and is truly handsome. Dana T. Carney carried the role of the antagonist leader Big Al, and made me hate him. We'll done! Director, cinematographer, and editor, Matt Sconce's obvious talent bolsters the story using a sweeping flourish of powerful scene choices that perfectly match the massive acting ability of the cast. Sconce paints the screen with soaring and scenic high mountain vistas, then continues his artistry through perfect direction of the cast. This is no digital effect, virtual effect film. It is a great story with ACTING. I was swept away as I happily experienced this film. It is simply wonderful. I immediately bought the film. Go see it!

The Girl in the Mountain is a terrible film. Slow pace, bad acting, made me laugh out loud because of how bad it was. This film tried too hard. 1 star rating. Let's be honest if you're giving this movie a 10 out of 10 you were probably part of the movie production or a friend of the director because there's no way a normal reviewer would give this film a 10 out of 10. More like a 1 out of 10. Update *The director Matt Sconce literally has asked his many Facebook followers to to leave a five star review whether they watched the film or not.

Not worth renting. Not worth watching. Bad acting bad storyline, bad everything. The director is asking his followers to give good ratings and reviews. Don't fall for the fake ratings and fake reviews. This is such a terrible film.
