Horror fan 4 @Horrorfan4life 6d What a sweet story about two teens who find each other in another world where each is dealing with something that they have to come to terms with. They need to decide to either stay put or go back. Hayden Panettiere lights up the screen with her smile and her presence on screen is so refreshing. Tim Treakle See more 10/10/2015 Very strange movie. I found it difficult to sink my teeth into it See more 07/04/2014 Just believe before you look. Ryan was involved in a horrible accident one day that left him scarred and a bit of a recluse. He doesn't like to hang out with other kids and he doesn't talk much, only to his friend Rocky. One day is grandmother dies and he starts thinking if that is the easy way out of his troubles. His grandfather tells him a tale of The Dust Factory where he mentally escapes and ultimately may help him deal with his problems. Once in the Dust Factory he meets a girl, Melanie, who teaches him he'll need to leap to live life and not just let it pass him by. "If there wasn't a God...that would be harsh." Eric Small, director of the 10,000 Days television series and the upcoming 10,000 Days movie, delivers The Dust Factory in his directorial debut. The storyline for this picture is a bit eccentric but definitely fun to watch unfold. I did enjoy the characters but the dialogue was a bit plain. The settings were cool and unique and the acting was pretty good. The cast includes Peter Horton, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Hayden Panettiere, Ryan Kelley, Kim Meyers, and Michael Angarano. "Grandpa doesn't even know that grandma is gone." I grabbed The Dust Factory off Netflix as a movie my daughter and I could watch together. Unfortunately, she's only 5 and this was about to fall off Netflix online so we watched it last weekend (she wasn't overly interested and probably felt this was a "daddy movie"). I will say the ultimate evolution of the main character was worth following but the overall film was very average and kind of blah. I do recommend watching this once, but this isn't on the level of My Girl or Stand by Me. "I'm definitely not big on jumping." Grade: C+ See more 03/08/2014 Interesting philosophical musings. And very weird altogether. See more 07/04/2013 It was intriguing at the start but it just did not keep me watching. I could not finish watching it. See more 01/10/2013 A charming and magical story with solid and powerful performances from it's main cast. See more Read all reviews
