Secondhand Lions (2003)

Director: Tim McCanlies
Starring: Michael Caine, Robert Duvall, Haley Joel Osmet

Synopsis:
A boy is left in the care of his two great-uncles who are said to be in possession of a massive fortune they acquired through suspect means.

Impressions:
My mother really likes this movie, so I've seen it plenty of times. It's a nice coming-of-age story that plays well with this stage of Haley Joel Osmet's career. The real highlight is Robert Duvall and Michael Caine as the McCann Brothers, especially Duvall as Hub. The fantastical backstory is fun and I like how Hub acts as a role model for Walter. It's a rather good movie and well worth a watch if not a place in your collection.
