As children, John... Now & Forever is a thought provoking dramatic love story combining elements of spirituality, heart and integrity…tragic in one sense, but illuminating and uplifting in the other. As children, John Myron, and Angela Wilson form a powerful bond born on loneliness. They are guided by their friendship and by the First Nations spirituality that binds John's people together. As they mature into adulthood, Angela sets into motion a series of events that will forever change both their lives. Six years after leaving the small town where they grew up, the burden of a terrible secret leads Angela back. Harboring a secret of his own, John guides Angela to a shocking realization that will uncover the past. And they discover that true love, has no boundaries. [More]

Clark's direction is professional enough, as are the lead performances, but the movie is doomed from the get-go by Bill Boyle's mawkish, cliché-ridden screenplay.

This unrated film is best suited for television exposure to young teenage girls, who might actually fall under the spell of its particular brand of hokum.

At least the title's accurate: This is a viewing experience that feels like it will never end.

This poorly executed film is riddled with every cliché in the book and then some.

A story told with all the subtlety of an old country song.

Even a Sixth Sense-style twist at the end isn't enough to redeem Now & Forever.

Perhaps it was the film's irrevocable destiny to eventually find its way to the big screen, where, like its heroine, it can live out its last days in peace.

Has some of the schmaltz but little of the appeal of Arthur Hiller's 'Love Story'.

Heaven help us avoid saccharine sentiments, especially if they're wrapped in a candy-colored package like Now & Forever.
