I laughed and cried but was mostly inspired.

Rating: 10/10 (22 September 2006)

I loved this movie and recommended it highly. It handles the subject of overcoming obstacles in a practical and realistic manner. Not the usual Pollyania. I liked being reminded that our battles lie within us.
The movie is a story about being a hero. Not a superman, but a wise and seasoned mentor who provides service. This service is given in exchange for much personal introspection. The movie has moments of humor but also some profound moments.
I respect the struggles that Dan Millman has overcome and felt inspired when I left the theater. That has not happened to me in years. Thank you Dan Millman (author and actor who portrayed him) and thank you Nick Nolte for inspiring me.
