It really wasn't all that bad, no it wasn't Emmy material either, but we can deal.
The main reason to watch this made for TV movie is the acting. Kevin Spacey is great as always, and Fred Savage actually gets a chance to act without a hovering voice butting in.
despite being a little depressing at times, it is overall pretty worthwhile. One of the major flaws I noticed though was that even though this poor kid is enduring these horrible things in this nursing home, you have to wonder, Were is this boy's mother?!?!?! I was really hoping the aid, Wade (Kevin Spacey) would adopt the poor kid and make his short life better. But don't worry, he does come to the rescue in the end.
Go for it...you may be surprised.
