This movie has the same passion and triumph that Hossiers had. If you have any heart at all, you will love this film. Many jaded critics will point out that some of the acting was poor or over-the-top, but that is secondary to the story, which is truly inspiring. I know some leeway was probably taken with the actual story, but if even half of it is true, it is simply amazing. It also points out the simple truism of film that most Hollywood filmakers have forgotten (except Pixar), THE STORY IS EVERYTHING. Finally, Sandra Bullock has pulled off her first great role. After being typecast for almost all her career, she finally got a role that displays she is an actor. Go see this film, you will not be sorry.
