What's more, the look and feel of the film often seem like something straight off The Hallmark Channel or Lifetime Television. Nevertheless, this crowd-pleasing take on law of attraction philosophy does a more than capable job of illustrating its rudimentary principles without belaboring the "teaching" aspect, working its ideas into the narrative seamlessly, subtly and effectively. This is not groundbreaking cinema, but it is by far one of the best fictionalized cinematic adaptations of self-help material for the big screen that I have ever seen. Even if somewhat sappy, it's refreshing to see an uplifting release come along that offers viewers hope and inspiration during trying times -- or any time for that matter.… Expand

I thought the ending was cringeworthy as hell and it felt like the love connection was forced in there. The kids were either horrible actors or the material they had to work with was horrible, probably the material!

Loved it, not for cynics. I would watch it again. It’s a state of mind. Definitely recommend.

Even a silly love story would be useful to return to address outstanding issues such as the neoprotagorism from wishful thinking to von Foerster's radical constructivism, by his own admission direct child of Fichte's magical idealism. But Tucker's sacrifice for the happiness of others fu*ks everything up.… Expand

Speechless. An absolute beautiful movie. People like Gpersinger that give it a 1 have completely lost their mind and have no heart whatsoever.

I was prepared to turn this off if it sucked but I found it very endearing, Katie Holmes and the child actors had some strong acting moments and it was a great feel good movie. A couple parts that were a bit predictable but I enjoyed this greatly.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've read the critics who basically trashed this movie and Katie Holmes' performance. I mean like you know, gag me with a...

I disagree.

This is a great movie. I generally don't rewatch many movies. Why? Because they're generally so terrible these days. Even the ones I watch are somehow terrible. But this one is not...terrible. As the critics would have you believe. But I'm rewatching this one. I found it midst the wasteland of that screening platform I subscribe to. And I think Holmes is excellent and Josh strong. I'm not familiar with Holmes' work. But I think she nailed this.

That there is a spiritual message? Even better. This is one of those feel-good movies. Rare, as they seem to be a dying breed.

Give this one a chance. Plus...gulp. There's heart ❤️ in this film. How often do you get that? Almost never.

What the heck has happened? Where a good OK maybe great movie gets SO trashed. How can the so called critics be that wrong? Strangeness.… Expand
