Cynics beware! From the first sweeping chords of the soundtrack, it's clear that Love's Unending Legacy will continue Janette Oke's heartfelt tales of love, pluck, and Christian faith in the days of pioneers. Missy LaHaye (Erin Cottrell, repeating the role from Love's Long Journey and Love's Abiding Joy) comes back to her father and stepmother after the death of her husband, only to find herself adopting a teenage girl named Elinda and sparring verbally with the town's handsome young sheriff. Missy can't understand Elinda's rebellious ways until she discovers why the girl has been smuggling food to a boy at a nearby farm. Fans of the Love series (which began with Love Comes Softly) will be untroubled by the movie's modern notions of childhood (to say nothing of some very modern necklines) and the supernatural cleanliness of this frontier town; period realism matters less than a sincere portrayal of Christian values. (Some viewers, however, may feel that the movie's earnestness curdles into mawkishness.) Also featuring staunch Dale Midkiff, who's played Missy's staunch father Clark Davis in all five of the Love movies to date. --Bret Fetzer

- Great family series!!
This was another great piece of the puzzle.My family has enjoyed watching this serious; from the seven-year-old to the grandparents.

- What were they thinking?
First off, I don't think this movie is horrible. This was my first exposure to the series (I haven't read Janette Oke's books) and on my first viewing I thought it was a nice, enjoyable movie. Then I watched a few of the others and rewatched this one again, and it leaves me shaking my head. Why kill off Willie? As many viewers have said over and over, he was an excellent character, and the actor did a wonderful job of creating a soft-spoken, hard working, loving man--perfect romance hero material. ...

- Love's Unending Legacy
I enjoyed this addition to the Love Comes Softly series just as much as I have all of them and wait eagerly for the one to follow Love's Unfolding Dream.I love them all and sit down to watch the whole series all in a row quite often.I have not read the books as movies are very often not like the books they are based on.I give every one in the series a five star rating but my favorite is Love's Long Journey.

- Good story but not enough romance
I've watched all the previous movies, so was interested to see this one also.Like all the previous movies, though, there seems to be a certain lack of romance between the protagonists.
You could almost excuse the first movie, because that was the point of the title (that love comes softly), but all the movies have that strange situation where the protagonists suddenly realize they love each other in the last few minutes of the movie (well, mostly the women..the men are pretty ...
