I could not help it but shed a few tears for this movie...its inspiring and when u leave the theater a feel good and appreciative of what u take for granted everyday!

In today's very disturbing, trying times, it is so refreshing to see such a heartwarming wholesome movie. I bought ticket to see it with our 11 year old and he was moved to tears! Such an inspiring story!

Great movie. Based on a true story.

A very good movie. Glad I came to see it!

Whether that be through exploring mental abolition versus determination or even activism versus an individual’s special needs, Hamm’s latest had the potential to say a lot more than what was accomplished. Instead, he doesn’t do much with either, and he relies a little too heavily on his actors to take this uninspiring script towards sincerity.

It's a call to action with no banner behind which to rally, sanitized to the point of being anodyne.
