Shillingburg (freely adapted from the novel by Jim Stovall) feel of a piece with the entire production. So he promptly buys it back by creating a вЂњfoundationвЂќ for generically altruistic purposes.ДЄt least the narrative sloppiness and ineptly delivered themes in the script by Brian Bird and Lisa G. ItвЂ™s only once the unapologetically greedy Red has selfishly amassed his own wealth (by stepping on or exploiting an untold number of вЂњsheepвЂќ in the process), that he realizes heвЂ™s lost his soul. Struggling to make ends meet during the Depression, Red learns a valuable Ayn Randian lesson from a wealthy land owner ( Peter Fonda, onscreen for about three minutes): Most people are sheep, while successful men are bellwethers. Meanwhile, Hanna (now played by Elizabeth Ann Bennett) inexplicably loses her spark and fades into the background to care for the coupleвЂ™s four interchangeable children as any dutiful wife (apparently) should.Д«eyond the dispiriting gender politics, the picвЂ™s social agenda emerges as hopelessly muddled. HeвЂ™s like Daniel Plainview, only whinier and less homicidal. Unfortunately, after a strange detour into WWII (and a single battle scene that manages less verisimilitude than anything Max Fischer staged in вЂњRushmoreвЂќ), the teens grow up and the focus falls solely on adult RedвЂ™s obsessive quest to find his fortune in oil. Largely dismal thesping briefly perks up during an early stretch carried by appealing young performers Austin James as teenage Red and Abigail Mavity as his feisty love interest, Hanna. Thus the bulk of the film unfolds in flashbacks charting how Red (primarily played by Drew Waters) went from rags to riches, and takes an awfully long time to deliver an awfully trite message: Money only matters if you have someone special to share it with. Alexia (Ali Hillis), and only a thorough reading of the journals of his deceased billionaire grandfather, Red ( James Garner, onscreen for less than a minute), can set him straight.

Picking up three years after the events of вЂњGift,вЂќ busy young mogul Jason Stevens (Logan Bartholomew, taking over for Drew Fuller) has hit a rough patch with g.f. displays great determination, and even more folly, in his attempt to mount a вЂњGiantвЂќ-sized family saga with the production values of вЂњSharknado.вЂќ Terminally dull result faces grim theatrical prospects on its way to endless Hallmark Channel reruns, where it will challenge even the most forgiving viewers to stay awake and alert throughout. Frequent faith-based filmmaker Michael Landon Jr. Both a prequel and a sequel to 2007вЂ™s inspirational theatrical bomb (but DVD hit) вЂњThe Ultimate Gift,вЂќ вЂњThe Ultimate LifeвЂќ once again soft-pedals gentle messages of Christian charity and family values destined to appeal strictly to the converted.
