Outstanding!!!!! Jaden is so cute, but the movie was incredibly uplifting. Just when it seems like you should give up, keep pressing your way.

I am going to see Dreamgirls with mom and brother hopefully. It's our tradition to go see a movie Christmas Day.
I think you and your daughter will love it! It's #1 this weekend.

I got a chance to see it and it was a very good movie. Jaden was awesome -yes the story was uplifting and I shed a few tears- but he was super cute and completely made the movie for me.

Great movie!
The movie was phenomenal!
Mr. Gardner was a very tenacious brotha. I loved the fact that he had to keep his son. That was so inspirational! I got emotional when they offered him that job. I actually wanted to shout because God blessed him for sacrificing. Great, great movie!

I loved all the running in the movie. To me that was metaphorical that the race isn't given to the swift, but to the ones who endure the race.

Just saw the movie, it was so great. I definitely want to take my mom to see it again. Will and Jaden were fabulous. I was afraid that the sad parts would be too sad for me, but they were more tense than sad and effectively portrayed the constant anxiety of having no foundation for security. I'll have to buy this movie and watch it every time I feel llike complaining. I am curious about the wife (Thandie's character)...Talk about kicking yourself for the rest of your life. And then watching it in a feature film!

I'm curious as well. That would suck to be her. Had she just stood by him just a little bit longer. Oh well, everything happens for a reason.

My boyfriend and I were talking about that. I chalk it up to "Fight or flight". Apparently she couldn't take it so she took off.
I liked the cameo Mr. Gardner had at the end.
