ccthemovieman-1 - imdb.com
This was unusual: a modern-day film which was ultra-nice. In fact, it was so nice it bordered on being too hard to believe in parts. As I watching this based-on-a-real-life story, I was thinking, "nobody is this nice, this tolerant."... Full review

This is one of the best films I have ever seen! How anyone can knock this movie just befuddles my imagination! First of all, Gooding's and Harris's performances were simply spectacular, especially Gooding. That is the only way I can... Full review

Corniness Warning. As many fellow IMDb users already know, I'm not a corny, cheesy person. If you don't want to read this kind of review, then go.To tell you the truth, you're hearing this from a man who laughed through... Full review

Not much to it but a validation of small town values and the embracing of a mentally challenged young man into its heart.I read some of the reviews and was surprised at some of the hostility it engendered. I felt... Full review
IT'S JUST A TRULY GREAT FILM.

I thought Uptown Girls was the most touching movies of 2003. But after seeing this movie, I now think it comes in a tie with Uptown Girls. It's perfectly well acted by Ed Harris and Cuba Gooding Jr. The story... Full review
