I had never heard of this movie, and it happened to be starting when I was channel surfing. Everything about this is movie is wonderful. The story, the themes, the characters and the performances. Everything.Appropriate for the entire family and thoroughly enjoyable for everyone.

The movie is about how time and opportunity helps us to define who we are. And who we become later, our ultimate destination. And how teachers, great teachers mean a lot and can show the way and recognize our potentials. Motivating and uplifting, also greatly elaborated and poetic language, which Andy is using to tell his tale. Romantic story line is also very endearing. Mary Clear is definitely a very special character in this movie, and Andy's travel through this tunnel from the boy to a man is very symbolic and exciting to watch. I really enjoyed the movie and found characters to be very realistic. Just go ahead and dream, over the limitations of your school walls, prejudices and bigots, or local bullies. Cause life is not what it seems, not what it is in those teenager years.

Great performances by Ed Harris and entire cast that she'd light on bullying and growing up as a kid..Molly Parker really stole our hearts throughout the engaging and warm movie. And McG with his akwardness and charismatic ways had us on his side the entire film. Truly a well made film by WWE and they should make more films like this as opposed to their lesser Genre's. Remarkably made and great ending .Overall this motion picture had a very thought provoking message. I especially like the ending credits of where they are all now and by the way the Swedish Supermodel Yvette is the Famous model Yvette Rachelle. I highly recommend this movie for all ages as it has a great lesson to be learned by folks of all ages.

When I saw this I didn't read anything about it. All I knew was that it was made by WWE and Randy Orton was in it. Obviously I jumped to conclusions and thought this movie was about fighting/wrestling. Another pointless movie. I was so surprised just watching the first 15 minutes. This movie is an eye opener. So much heart is in this movie. I fell in love with every one in it. Stanley "Big G" The big ginger smart guy that takes crap from everyone but doesn't let it get him down. Andy the kinda popular kid that has ended up befriending Stanley. The homosexual teacher who everyone loves. How the children don't judge him even though they are new to the whole sexuality. Mr Simon is the main homosexual teacher who is someone that would make the perfect teacher. Every school should have a teacher like him. He has respect for the pupils and the pupils respect him. And I loved him in the movie. He made the movie =) This movie is for everyone. People get bullied everyday. It gets worse everyday. All schools should show this to their pupils as it has a great message and kids could actually learn something from it. I give this movie a solid 9/10 A proper family film that everyone would enjoy =D
