This film is a family drama in which a son communicates with his father, dead for years, through a radio that, through some mysterious means and that the film does not clarify much, opens a temporary portal or something. All those who sayThis film is a family drama in which a son communicates with his father, dead for years, through a radio that, through some mysterious means and that the film does not clarify much, opens a temporary portal or something. All those who say this seems implausible have reason to say it, and I understand that because I also thought so. The problem with the script is that it has its origin in such a weak premise because otherwise the story is profound, touching and so pleasing that the logical weakness of the story ends up being forgiven. The characters are also easily appealing and pleasing, being well developed from the psychological point of view. Dennis Quaid and Jim Caviezel are the main actors of the cast and have lived up to expectations, achieving a very pleasant bond between them. The rest of the cast virtually does what it has to do and nothing else. Expand

Has a good heart and decent acting but the film is virtually a series of plot-holes.
