This movie captured the hardships miners faced in the late 1800's during the Gold Rush to Alaska. To my surprise Alyssa Milano's character is a down to earth, real life characterization of a lady that really existed (True Story) & Alyssa was believable.I bought the movie because I'm a Bruce Campbell fan. Bruce played a really offbeat character, that was also believable.I've watched this movie multiple times; it's as enjoyable the 10 time as it was the 1st time.Excellent storyline, great photography, & well directed + it had a happy ending.

First time I saw this great movie and Alyssa, my star*, playing Frances Ella Fitz, was so great in this movie! It was just so real and her little dog so cute! I saw it the first time when I was like 11 years old and it was the best movie i had ever seen, and you know what? I still think so! 10/10 ********** = greatest ever!

Here is a movie of adventure, determination, heroism, & bravery. Plus, it's set back in the late 1800s which makes it even more interesting. It's a wonderful, adventurous storyline, and Alyssa Milano is wonderful at playing the wholesome, confident, no-nonsense Fizzy...a great role-model. This is one of my favorite movies. It is a movie to be watched again and again and will inspire you and enrich your life without a doubt. Not only is the storyline excellent, but the movie also has fabulous scenery and music and is wonderfully directed. This movie is as good as gold!

In this above average made for TV flick, Disney captures the excitement of searching for gold in Alaska at the turn of the century. Alyssa Milano gives a strong, spunky and lively performance as "Fizzy", who holds her own as the only female searching for gold among several men, most of them quite older than she is. The whole cast looks like they are having a blast making the film. I did feel bad when the man fell in love with and proposed to Fizzy and she turned him down. This is a really fun movie. Well done, Disney!
