Even more of the same

Warning: Spoilers
For those who have seen the first two "Wilderness Family" movies, the opening of "Mountain Family Robinson" will come as a surprise. That's because the opening of the movie suggests that there will actually be some kind of plot, with the family being threatened with eviction. However, after this threat is introduced, it is promptly forgotten for the next hour or so! During this hour, there is absolutely nothing of consequence. Sure, the mother at one point leaves the family, but several minutes later she is back and her leaving is forgotten.

When the plot does start up again, there is some interest, but it won't take long to quickly conclude what will happen in the end. But at least this series entry has SOME plot! Apart from this plot, there's nothing you haven't seen in the previous entries. There are cute animals, gorgeous scenery, and a dim-witted young son who does some stupid things that will make you want to slap him in the back of the head. If you want to see all this stuff again, fine. Myself, I was glad that the series came to an end at this point because frankly I was starting to get real tired of seeing the same old stuff again.
