Rating: Summary: VHS Much Better Review: Even though the movie is touching, it doesn't represent the Deaf population. Many of them have told me that it is a good movie and wants me to watch it but they do not understand that it is not anything to do with the culture of the Deaf. If you want to understand the Deaf culture, watch the appropriate videotape such as "Children of a Lesser God" or "Love is Never Silent." I would heartily recommended this movie.

Rating: Summary: wonderful toutching show!! Review: I loved this movie. It made me laugh as well as cry.... it's a great show, for the whole family! you won't have to worry about if your 5 year old is seeing something inappropriate.... there should be more movies like this one!!
Rating: Summary: VHS Much Better Review: I was waiting for the DVD format to become available as I loved this movie and was wearing out my tape from rewinding and fast forwarding to my favorite scenes.The VHS version contains interviews with the actors and behind the scenes making of the movie footage. I guess I expected that if footage was on the video, then it would be in the DVD. Boy was I wrong. The DVD version was good quality, but contained no extras whatsoever. So if you are like me and hoping to replace your VHS with the DVD, you'll be disappointed. Now I have two copies of this movie depending on if I just want to see a particular scene or the behind the scenes footage. I guess the VCR is sticking around a little while longer.
Rating: Summary: Great Story, Great Actors Review: I was wonderfully surprised with this movie. It ran the gambit of emotions for me: laughing, crying... Frankie Muniz and Mathew Modine were EXCELLENT in their roles. The rest of the cast was great as well. The story was interesting all along and you felt warmth and compassion for the 'deaf man' as he grew in stature. I've recommended this to anyone who'd listen. Good job!!!!!

Rating: Summary: It will touch the core of your heart! Review: It is a movie that you will watch again and again. You must see it once to realize how the first facts lead up to the end results. If you are a baby born to a unwed mother or if you are a unwed mother it will zero in on home. It shows that it does not matter who you are but what you are!
Rating: Summary: HEARTWARMING Review: THIS IS A HALLMARK MOVIE THE WHOLE FAMILY CAN WATCH. MATTHEW MODINE AND TOM SKERRIT ARE WONDERFUL. IT ALSO HAS A GREAT APPEARANCE BY JAMES EARL JONE. IF YOU WANT TO LAUGH AND FEEL GOOD AT THE END, THIS MOVIE IS FOR YOU. CHECK OUT OTHER HALLMARK MOVIES SUCH AS DECORATION DAY WITH JAMES GARNER.
Rating: Summary: Outstanding! Review: This is a show to be viewed by all, both young and old, big and small. It accentuates on kindness, hidden secrets, love, loyalty and don't forget, determination. I was impressed with it's quality and with it's humor and sentiment. I have only seen it once, when it was shown on television, but it has stayed with me for years, and will continue to be a desired DVD to add to our library.
Rating: Summary: One of the most up-lifting and feel-good movies ever! Review: This movie was one that truly made me feel better about the world when done watching it. The message was as simple as they come...the kindness of ones heart is the most important. Matthew Modine gave a wonderful performance while speaking only few words;along with a great ensemble cast including James Earl Jones,and Tom Skerret. This is one movie that I would recommend to anyone, old or young, and anyone in the mood for a heart-felt, touching story. Halmark has done it again.
