Loved the film from beginning to end. The story line was relatable to what a lot of people are going through in the job market these days. I wanted the family to succeed in their struggles, which were plentiful. Great laughs throughout, it was a witty humor with some fully belly laughs. There were several scenes that made me tear up, highly relatable to the struggles of modern day life of having to pick up and start over, and then having to do it again. I left with hope and happiness for the characters. Great flick for the whole family!!!

It was great to see a movie that had an absolutely "G" rated script tell a wonderful story with a good message. It was well written, well acted, and well "put together". Loved it!!!

"Shifting Gears" is a fun, family-friendly, and touching film. Terrific cast. Adam Hicks shined as the youngest Williamson, the sincere, loveable teenager whose relationship with his father Tom drives much of the story. R. Keith Harris's performance is enjoyable whether he is provoking tears or laughter. C. Thomas Howell offered timely comedic moments while John Ratzenberger was a convincing nemesis, quite the opposite of gentle, fun-loving Cliff. Emmet Walsh was perfect for the Cheerwine-soaked-snuff-spitting bench-sitting man of mystery, and Brooke Langton was just right for the role of Carol, Tom's wife, bringing wisdom and warmth, keeping us, and her husband, grounded. The car racing scenes were authentic, if a bit too sparse. The engine sounds could have been amplified a bit more. Occasionally, serious material was treated with a bit of comedic effect that came across as out of place, as with the "Eat My Dust," "Kiss My Grits" verbal father-son sparing, a critical moment in their relationship that called for something a bit less silly-sounding. All in all, though, an enjoyable, feel good movie for everyone.

This is a great family film that deals with the challenges of pride, neglect and a father's desire to do the very best for his family. This is a must-see? movie.

Great family movie with a positive message. Living in NC, I found it very authentic to both the area and temperament of people living in this space. Everybody loves a racing moving and the location and actors were incredible tools to tell this interesting story. Great job. I wish that more movies had inspirational themes and were as interesting to watch.

Great movie about dirt track racing and not giving up.

Fantastic all the way around. A must see for the entire family. Keith Harris is a star!

Great family movie! Lots of laughs and a wonderful cast!

I watched this with my son over the weekend and had a blast. This is exactly the kind of fun, laugh filled, family film that is great to kick back and enjoy with a huge tub of popcorn. The entire cast was great, particularly Keith Harris and I love that it was filmed in NC. We need more films like this! I loved it.
