Review of Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain (1995) by Ded-Meet C — 01 Jan 2013

A typical family movie, but a little bit more grown up story wise, and not even remotely as predictable as I feared. All in all it´s a pretty decent movie.

These sorts of films are usually quite predictable and cheesy, and with absolutely nothing too upsetting (or interesting) going on in the story/plot so as not to upset anyone - at all, anywhere, ever... Boooring.

This movie is a nice exception from those rules. It has a good cast and takes place in some very beautiful settings (cleverly worked into the plot), sceneries which I personally appreciate a lot. The basic plot of the storyline is rather simple, but as mentioned above not everything is portrayed candy sweet - people actually have real people issues and problems which really turns up the drama a lot, and they are worked into the plot of the movie in a good way.

So - a good, beautiful, dramatic film about two girls, friendship and some mysterious gold.
