Maureen O'Hara shines! - Reviewed on 2007-11-10
3 customers found this review helpful.
I have long been a fan of Maureen O'Hara. When this filmed aired on TV, I watched it, taped it, and loved it! Ms. O'Hara truly shines, reminding her audience that she truly is a great actress.
As in several of her more recent films, Ms. O'Hara's character begins this film somewhat cold and distant -- even cranky. She soon warms up though, and she and Jason Beghe have great chemistry together. Jason Beghe's Mike character begins what he believes is a short fare, only t find himself on a long roadtrip.
Catherine Bell and Haley Joel Osment also have wonderful scenes together. There are so many very touching moments in this film. Efrem Zimbalist Jr also has a small role, and it is definitely wonderful to see him here.
I am very glad that this film has made its way to DVD. It's a movie for the whole family with a postitive message. Maureen O'Hara is wonderful, and she should work more often.
If you're looking to buy this film, don't hesitate -- it's well worth the small pricetag.

Finally! Been waiting a long time for Cab to Canada to make it to DVD...Lifetime Movie Network doesn't show the movie near enough, and it is a very good, heart-warming film.
Maureen O'Hara is her usual brilliant self. She and Jason Beghe, as the crusty-yet-lovable Mike, are good as the cabbie and his "fare" & to watch them become friends on their journey is touching.
The other side is Catherine Bell as Sandy, Mike's girlfriend, who helps care for his irresponsible neighbor's little boy, played by a young Haley Joel Osmant. The scenes with Bell/Osmant are touching as well, as you watch them forge into a respect and friendship with each other.
All in all a great feel-good, heartwarming movie, about the value of friendship and the joy of being alive. I'd recommend it to anyone, and as said, THANK YOU FOR PUTTING THIS OUT ON DVD!
