Very Good movie about child responsibility

Very Good movie about child responsibility, parenting, marriage and morality. We have watched it several times. It is funny that the Baptist pastor is dressed like a Catholic priest.

This is a great movie that teaches people about how we are all connected, and in this movie music is that connection.
This is a story about a boy who is gifted with music talent, a nautral and a genuis, who suffered adversity from birth yet became who is was meant to be regardless of what others tried to make him out to be because of his economic/social history and his musical intelligence.
This is a story of how small moments from caring adults can touch and change the life of a child in an instant.
I Strongly recommend this movie to adults and children, of all ages.
This movie is a strong reminder of how we are all connected and what you do counts!

I thought this movie was very good. Good effects. It definetly shows the journey that a christian can go through, especially in these times. But shows there will be a reward at the end of your journey through the grace of God. I enjoyed it very much. Good for older children.

Great movie.  Slightly violent/scary for small ones, but the bad guy has a legitimate reason that the good guy can empathize with, which is a little unusual in a kids movie, and the good guy skirted with becoming just as bad as the bad guy for the same reason.  Nice lessons.  Nice story. Both kids and adults loved it.

This movie is a whimsical tale of the importance of being responsible for the world around us.  It highlights how important trees are to our environment and how corporate greed can derail our responsibilities.  While this is a fun movie and my grand daughter loves it (7 years old), it does get a bit preachy for those of you who are turned off by the "yeah environment--boo capitalism" message.

I enjoyed this movie. The main character made some poor decisions but she took responsibility and loved her children doing the best she could under the circumstances. I loved that she took the opportunity for adventures, lived life to the fullest and taught her children to do the same in a period of time that frowned not only on her situation but also her independence.

This movie really shows how the US has declined by not disciplining children. I have seen this movie a few times and would highly recommend it to people raising children.

It was a great movie, I cried. Has some good lessons for kids, like some people just can't be reasoned with and that yes, parents can go away but it doesnt mean they don't love you and it deals with the death of a parent. Some parts I wish would have been dealt with differently but, it is a kids movie and, there is only so much time. Still a good movie I suggest everyone watch at least once.

This movie shows how you should really treat your children and people of all walks of life... Many small lessons shared in this movie.

This is a great kid's movie with a lot of characters and a great story plot. It's a good combination of a musical and a story with good characters and characters that do not make good choices :-) I would suggest not over thinking the story line, it's a kid's movie after all. And no its not all about the flying cars, believe me even a two year old is capable of appreciating more!!

This movie is very well done. It is realistic, sad, and while not a "true story" it certainly characterizes accurately how children are exploited, and lose hope as early teens. I think the actors were exceptional, except for "mom and dad"...they just didn't seem to fit into how parents of a lost child would really react. But I don't know as I haven't been in that situation, but felt off. Other than that, just surprised this movie has not been talked about more/

Unconditional: I love this movie. It is a faith-based film that conveys the message of Christs unconditional love for us, and how our lives affect others when we demonstrate that same type of love for those around us. It is a good quality movie with a good message for people of various ages. The actors did a great job and the filmography was well done as well. I found it to be a beautiful movie, a moving film, and a well-scripted picture. Children will connect with the kids in the movie and they will enjoy the stories being told within the story (the main actress is a childrens author). Teenagers will find the mystery aspect of the film to be interesting. And adults will find beauty in the overall message of the movie. I believe this movie is five-star worthy.
