Description of Secondhand Lions [Blu-ray]:
If you can get past its thick layer of syrup and molasses, Secondhand Lions reveals itself as a thoroughly decent family film that anyone can enjoy. It gets a little sappy sometimes, but there's something to be said for a movie in which Michael Caine and Robert Duvall play eccentric old brothers who take the easy approach to fishing: instead of a peaceful rod and reel, they use 12-gauge shotguns. When 14-year-old Walter (Haley Joel Osment, teetering on puberty) spends an eventful summer with his great-uncles on their vast Texas farmland (he's been dumped there by his delinquent mom, played by Kyra Sedgwick), he soon discovers they've lived lives full of adventure, excitement, passion, and mystery. Either that or they're old-time bank robbers with a long criminal record, and writer-director Tim McCanlies (who invested similar warmth into The Iron Giant) does a nice job of concealing the truth until the very end. Full of enriching lessons and homespun humor, Secondhand Lions has more substance than most family films. If you enjoyed Holes, you'll probably enjoy this movie, too. --Jeff Shannon

Two Screen Veterans Rise Above a Mediocre Script
2009-11-29 - "Secondhand Lions" is about shy young Walter (Haley Joel Osment) who is sent to spend the summer with his eccentric uncles (Michael Caine, Robert Duvall) by his Mom (Kyra Sedgwick) so he can secretly discover the millions the old guys are reputed to be sitting on. At first shocked by his uncles' unconventional behavior, which includes ordering African lions through the mail, the boy soon becomes enthralled with unraveling the mystery that has followed his uncles for years. Hearing tales of their exotic adventures involving kidnapped princesses, Arabian shieks, and lost treasure not only brings him closer to his uncles but also teaches him what it means to believe in something, whether it's true or not. Osment isn't much of an actor here, especially when he has to share the screen with pros Caine and Duvall. The film never really convinces, but Caine and Duvall have fun with their outlandish roles. Bonus extras include alternate scenes (including an alternate ending), three featurettes, director commentary, and deleted scenes.
