Hate this movie, there is something wrong with you!, 25 November 2006

Author: the_moody_youngest from Canada

This is everything I like in a film. I watched this on TV, knowing it would be good, I was right. I talked to my friend Stephanie on the phone and we watched it together, we were both pleased! 1. The acting, I never knew Shawn Ashmore was so good. All I have seen him in was X Men, In A Heartbeat and a couple other things. Excellent acting. Even though Shawn and Terry's voices were nothing alike, GREAT MOVIE! 2. The story. Terry fox was a Canadian legend and hero and we remember him greatly. If only he was still here, he was a great person.

3. It shows how proud Canadians can be instead of all these Americans called us Canadians losers. We are good people.

This film deserves an Oscar. One of the best films ever made.
