I literally though I had missed out on this film

Rating: 10/10 (9 July 2009)

I'm 17 years old and when I watched this movie earlier tonight I had no idea of the background, or when it was made. And honestly, the atmosphere of this movie made it seem like it was made in the early 90's and was a well renowned kids film. When I heard it was only made two years ago I was shocked, I was unfamiliar with all the lead roles except for Terrence Howard and Robin Williams, and they looked youthful as if this movie could have been made many years ago. It so well captured all the good aspects of the touching, tumultuous search of an orphan in search of something better. The whole way through I thought it was just some movie I had missed out on as a younger kid and I was thrilled to see they still make movies like this today.
