Movie Review by B Movie Ben

April 13th, 2007

Sappy story

This one is perfect for fans of "The Secret." It's a sappy story about a kid who wants to change lives, including his teacher's.

Now, I like Kevin Spacey (The Usual Suspects) a whole lot, and I like Helen Hunt (especially with Mel Gibson or Jack Nicholson). I just don't like films that star kids. They are always sappy and this one even has Jesus Christ (James Caviezel) in it. Jesus with a drug habit? So, if you want cheap sentimentalism, horrible performances and worst of all, an excessively saccharine ending, then check it out. If you want the real story, then read the book.

Hey, I have an idea. Let's tell three people to not watch this film and have them tell three more and see if it will go away.
