Captivating! After you get over all that fabulous game play and almost interesting sub plots, you can settle into the many positive messages in the film. I just discovered this series and have watched it 2 or three times. Being new to gaming, I truly enjoy watching the game play in this series. I have learned a lot about approaching this kind of game play. The "movie" itself is rather uplifting and reminds me that regardless, friends and family are ALWAYS important and if you so choose, you can always forgive and move on. I like the light in the series and appreciate that it is not "dark" when things are on the dark side for anyone. It is a "feel good" movie. I will be watching it again and again!
