Great movie - enjoyed by whole family
11 June 2011
My whole family, husband, 13yo daughter, and 10yo son loved the movie. Appreciated the positive message and real life summaries at the end. My son normally likes only action movies, but wanted to buy this one (we watched on Netflix) after the movie was over. A friend of ours has a young son battling cancer - this story was more personal to us as a result. Considering the budget for the movie, it was well-acted, great script, riveting. While the movie had a Christian message, it is based on a true story about the life of a Christian boy and how he impacted others. Regarding the negative reviews because of the Christian content, I wish there was similar outrage over foul language and the pervasive sexuality in nearly every movie that comes out of Hollywood. I was hesitant to watch this movie because of the low reviews, but my daughter's friends had seen it and said it was good, so I agreed to watch it. So glad I did. Will recommend to everyone - just make sure to have a tissue box nearby - it is a tear jerker throughout.
