Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This movie should have won many awards. It's great!
Review: This is definitely a movie every family should rent and enjoy. This wonderful movie is about innocence, a word America has not heard in a long time. Even on the subject of sex, the movie handles it with care and again, innocence. With this movie, families with children 8 to 20 yrs old are given the perfect opportunity to discuss matters such as: true friendships, love, sex, peer pressure,and most importantly, dealing with people who are mentally or physically handicap.

Our society does not open their arms to the mentally handicapped, but this movie suggest that we are missing one of God's greatest blessings, the ability to love unconditionally. Go rent the movie today!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Must See

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Joke
Review: Did anyone notice the inside sex joke about when the male retard finds out he failed...he bends down and Julie=tte has that..um costume. I noticed the joke the first time and I found it wildly amusing...but i think most people missed it. Watch for the puppy bend down scene and um..smile.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty entertaining.
Review: The movie is pretty entertaining. There are silly mnoments, dramatic moments, and tearjerker moments. The acting is fine and Juliette Lewis's walk was especially funny. Overall good movie, but don't exspect something too great.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Take the time to see this one, you won't be sorry.
Review: Overall the movie may have needed some improvement but I was so fixated on Juliette Lewis' performance that nothing else mattered. Her role has got to be one of the most difficult to perform. She stayed consistent adding real credibility to the character. I felt her frustration and her joy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: excellent!
Review: I just watched this movie and I am still smiling about it. It was such a heart warming movie that allowed me to cry and laugh at the same time. It is an excellent perfromance of two very good actors, and I think anyone who wishes to feel good about people, familes, and the world should watch it. But that is just one persons thoughts, one who will end up buying this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: God lives in Hollywood.
Review: Are you looking for proof that we live under a good God? Watch this movie. Full of real family situations, good and bad. It's hard to find movies w/out foul language and sex. This movie had a little of both, and yet never offends. The couple acting as though they are mentally handicapped, deserve Oscar's. To be able to laugh, cry and even cheer are the three things that I will never forget this movie for.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great family oriented, sit-down, tear-jerker of a movie!
Review: I saw this movie as soon as it hit the theatres, and as a 16 year old girl, my friend also 16, and I loved it. We thought it portrayed the family of a mildly handicapped child brilliantly. Some parts were hilarious, others were tear-jerking, with a great ending. I cant wait till it comes to video. Juliette Lewis and Giovanni Ribisi were excellent. Go see this movie!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I throughly enjoyed this movie.
Review: As a parent of a mildly retarded child I thought both actors did an excellent job. They both had the speech patterns and physical traits down well. I also thought the movie showed the strain that a special needs child places on a family. This was all done in this movie with a good dose of humor.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A sensitive subject that deserved much better. . .
Review: During the course of the movie it is important to ask yourself if you are really laughing with the two central characters or at them, at their innocence, their simplicity, their sincerity. It felt at times almost as if the words, dialogues were put into the mouths of these two characters and that they never would have said them had the been left to themselves. Cliches, american humor, everything...very disappointing. A subject that deserved much better treatment. A sensitive issue that perhaps should not have been handled the way it was. Very very disappointing.
