Such a great movie!! A great drama based on real facts! Nothing more touching and inspiring than seeing the struggles of a person and the ambition while pursuing one's dream inspired by true stories!!! Which reminds us that we can do it all if we really put our minds and souls to it! I strongly recommend it!
It is really imperative that you give this movie some slack ... a lot of slack actually. The things that happen here are unrealistic at best. But it is about believing in oneself. It is about never giving up. Of course there are quite a few flaws and downfalls. Not just when our main character is supposed to watch over somebody else - when he can't see a thing.
Is that something you would do? Or accept from someone else? Or make any sense in the real world? How far can someone go by not telling others that he has issues? And can we as viewers forgive him for that? It is about really really getting into the mood of the movie and accepting certain things. Especially that this is a movie, that tries to make you feel good! And it also tries to send a positive message ... even through all the wrong doings and escapades we witness ... so it' up to you: can you dig it or not?

Some people want to give you positive vibes and expect to be praised for all of their effortless story telling wabbling because of their good intentions , this movie is a boring mess
Without being too long and boring I just want to say that I really enjoyed this movie and would absolutely recommend watching it. Absolutely worth reading the subtitles. I stumbled upon it on Amazon by chance and was not sure if I should watch it because of subtitles. I was so glad I did. Mind blowing that it's based on true story! Great movie. Loved it.
