I so enjoyed this movie. I think the reason that I liked it so much is that isn't wasnt over the top. This was a simple, honest movie of how most people come to Christ. We have a man who feels like a failure because his baseball career didn't pan out. He is a heavy drinker, who doesn't realize he's an alcoholic, which is something many people believer about their drinking. He is not only struggling as a man, but as the single parent to a 17 year old daughter. Then he meets Produce, a man who works at the produce section at the grocery store who has down syndrome. I'm glad they didn't make this movie about the disorder. That's not what message. Here's a man with down syndrome, a disorder that a lot people still see as "mad", and he's teaching another man how to live a better life simply by just being. I was waiting for the turn in the film where Calvin instantly and dramatically converts to being a Christian and was so pleased to see that it didn't happen. We got to see what we believe will be the start of Calvin and his daughter's walk with Christ and that's good enough for me.

Hope For Us All
I watch tons of movies, shows, and documentary's. This is one of the best films I've watched. This film is done in a tasteful fashion. This film is nothing but inspiring! Heart touching! And mind opening! This is a MUST WATCH FILM!!! After watching over 2,200 movies there has only been a few that have spoken with such inspirational volune like this film. Please watch it! We get so caught up in big block busters when it's actually these types of films that speak to us on a personal level and actually produce something that can inspire us.
