I liked this movie much more the first time I saw it, when my child was very young, and my parental "radar" was still a bit less conscious. But when I bought this copy to share with her, I was very glad I pre-viewed it! There's lots of sexy stuff in it (do I REALLY need my 14 year old daughter seeing pole-dancing in a strip club???) and bedroom scenes with unmarried folks. It just doesn't outweigh the positives, to my mind. The book is a better story (as books always are), but even THAT has LOTS and I mean - LOTS - of sexual stuff, some of it even nastier and more graphic than the movie, so I'd hold off on sharing this with my kids until at least age 16-18. I think it's a very sad thing that writers seem to believe that gratuitous sex must be incorporated into everything these days in order to "sell" books and movies. Family-oriented choices for good reading and viewing just keep getting fewer and fewer. This story could have been such an excellent as help parents teach their children about giving of themselves to the world and its positive results, but the icky sex stuff just ruins it.Vollständige Rezension lesen
This was a great value for a great movie! The character development was awesome! I won't tell you any spoilers but this movie is very interesting. If you want to be inspired to help others in ways they don't expect, this is the movie for you. A Social Studies asks his students to write about this: What can I do to change the World? What can I do to put it to ACTION?

I really like the point of the movie, instead of paying back a kindness someone has shown you, you....pay it forward. Wouldn't the world be a nicer place if everyone practised this. :o) Helen Humt did an excellent job of playing a single Mom who's an alcoholic, trying to raise a 10 year old boy by herself. It was a down to earth movie, with not such a "happy ending" by any means, but the point is, life isn't always fair, yet even bad things can have good in them, if you just look for them. The only thing I didn't like was it had some strong language, not suitable for children.
This movie was "required" viewing by a very strong team-building consultant. My team consists of 12 managerial employees that work together daily. We had our own "silos" within the same company........our president, a very wise man, hired a consultant to bring us together...........long story short:::: we are the strongest team within the company, work with each other, have each others back, and actually look for the opportunity to help each other out. No such thing as "the hole is in your side of the boat"..........I guess the best way to describe the team building is to say that we went in as workers and coworkers, we are now friends, strong friends and we are having fun!! This movie sets an example for us all to follow, I won't spoil the content but the two hour viewing is superb........my wife and granddaughter are watching it for the sheer enjoyment........I can not say enough good about the movie........now for the transaction!!!, the CD was purchased at an outstanding price, delivered within four days which was completely unexpected, and in like new condition. I could not have been happier with the movie, the transaction but particularly the results.Vollständige Rezension lesen
