All spoiled kids should be forced to watch this movie

Rating: 9/10 (22 February 2006)

Really an amazing movie. Ron Howard's best work by far. All of the performances were at least above average, most of them were fantastic. Giamatti and Crowe were extremely fun to watch and I even liked Zellwegger who normally drives me right up a tree. This is a great sports movie no doubt, but it's so much more than just that. It really has it all from excitement to humor to tremendous amounts of pure raw emotion. I was almost moved to tears on a few occasions and that just doesn't happen to me normally. Seeing what this man went through and what that era must have been like for families was just unbelievably touching to watch. Some of my children are not yet old enough for this movie, but they will eventually all watch it - in my opinion, its message is really that important.
Enjoy it - because if you don't, something must be missing from inside of you.
