feel good movie of the year

Rating: 10/10 (18 December 2006)

First, let me state that I am a 20 year old female with no interest in football. I list fashion, indie music, and sleeping as my top three interests. However, I really loved this movie. Is it a masterpiece film? No, not at all. But is IS a movie that will leave you feeling warm inside. A lot of times during movies, I get nervous. While I appreciate a good suspense, every once in a while I like a movie without too much drama or conflict, a movie I can smile all the way through--and that is what Invincible was to me. It had a little bit of conflict, enough to keep you interested, but from a certain point it just went from hopeful to heartwarming and never went back. Combine that with the fact that it is based on a true story, and you have THE inspirational film of the year.
