Rating:  - Family movie
I received this movie in a very timely manner. This is important.
The movie is a nice family movie.
Rating:  - Feel Good Movie to Watch Over and Over Again
This is a feel good movie that I watch over and over again.

Rating: - An unexpected joy...
Wow. I wasn't expecting to like this movie as much as I did. I'm a fan of John Cusack. I love him. I know, I know. Shut up. But I do. The kid though... wow. The kid nearly stole the show on this one.

Rating: - Touching portrait and parent and child connecting
This a small, gentle movie that is great to watch with family members or someone you love. It's not groundbreaking or anything, but it has great actors - particularly Cusak - and a touching story. Worth checking out if you want a break from guns and explosions.

The first half is very complex and detailed which adds to the charm and honesty of a widowed, foster parent getting to know what makes his new son tick. About in the middle things go off a little bit too much maybe to an awkward point but the ending ... Read More
