Long Lost Son (2006)

Mildly entertaining movie about the romance between a Mom and her hot Long Lost Son. Set in a tropical paradise, Mom and Son go on many romantic dates. You can cut the sexual tension with a knife.Chase Crawford makes his debut here in an admirable fashion. Gabrielle Anwar as his Mom/Girlfriend is adequate in her role, and wears a series of tiny fetching bikinis on her romps with her Son.*SPOILER* One does wonder why Mom doesn't tell her Son who she is soon after their first date, but perhaps that would have spoiled the mood and put an end to further dates.Perfect movie for Valentines Day.

Chace Crawford, an up and coming young actor, walks off with this movie for TV. He's charming and does a decent acting job with a featured role, his first. Story revolves around a man who takes his son and fakes a boat accident and disappears with the result that he and his son were lost at sea. This leaves the wife, a shrew, behind. She remarries and fifteen years go by when we discover the father and son aren't dead.As expected, the mother learns this and goes on a wild search to find them. This is where the film goes down hill. This woman seems to break every law in entering another country, which is impossible without a passport of which she has none, nor birth certificate. She actually becomes a rather insipid person and you root for the father and son to lose her.Gabrielle Anwar plays the long lost mother badly. Looking to young for the part, they try getting her hair up for the older woman, but then suddenly she's running along the beach with her long hair flowing behind her in the breeze. Her mouth also bothered me. Craig Sheffer does much better as the father and evokes sympathy from his audience as his reasons for the kidnapping make sense. To keep his son from becoming a mommies's boy. Unfortunately the shrew wins out. The farewell scene between the father and son, brought some heartfelt emotions from young Crawford.There is some spectacular scenery of the islands and the sea in this film. Gorgeous photography and the good looking Chace Crawford make it a film worth watching.

can anyone tell me the kind, type, or model of cabin cruiser boat owned by Craawford and his father in this movie??? It was the power boat that the son was on when the mother first contacted him. It was the boat the he used for "charters". Now i am just trying to fill up the ten line requirement for a posting This boat may be called a cabin cruiser or it may be called something else. Please respond to [email protected] thank you.The boat was big enough for a person to walk into standing up. The 3 of them were on the boat at the end of the movie. It had windows around the sides so you could see out .

I saw this movie because of the previews. Chase Crawford is one hot, clean, decent guy. I am glad I watched it because his dad was an old familiar face to me. I thought the woman playing the mother got in many ways what she deserved until the very end. I don't mean a mother should lose a child for any reason but her attitude really needed some work. I do not understand why there is no information on this movie as yet but at least it now shows up when I request the title. I think that over the next few years the name Chace Crawford will appear more and more. At least I hope so. He brought that special something that made me root for the entire family. Dad got what he deserved in the end too. A place to sit and reflect. ha ha. Such dedication from a mother is something I would like to see more of today on TV. Maybe the networks will soon drop those stupid reality shows and go back to things like LONG LOST SON. Anyway I highly recommend this movie. It is just one notch above a movie of the week and will bring out feelings you may have not felt in a long while with the stuff being put on TV today.
