I watched this movie in segments. It was not until I got to the end that I realized or remembered that it was based on a true situation. Jamie Foxx and Tommy Lee Jones were very good in their roles as were the other actors in major roles. I highly recommend it for the historical information and inspirational message of never give up..

The only reason I watched this movie was because Melton was on Kelly Clarkson's show this morning. I watch a lot of Netflix but missed or didn't pay attention to the release of this film. I really was thrown off from the beginning. It wasn't making sense. I remember the true life events. But this story/movie was poorly presented in my estimation. And who thought it was a comedy? It was a "Messidy". The sex scene was totally unnecessary. The last repetitive scene was irritating and unnecessary. TOO MUCH!! Natalie Portman's character was obviously as troubled as that of Moore's. I wondered as the movie was ending, how the remaining children are reacting to this being shown now. It has no social, moral or spiritual redeeming value in my estimation. There were too many themes introduced but underdeveloped in my opinion. Wished I had spent my time watching almost anything else!

I couldn't stop watching. I enjoyed it for what was lessons about Korea. It was very charming. And the actor playing Attorney Woo is so convincing in the portrayal of a person with ASD, I was convinced that she really had the disorder. She deserves an award. I had difficulty following the dialogue because of her rapid spitfire speech. But I didn't care. It's a charming series.

This movie tore my heart out! E V E R Y O N E should watch! Very contemporary! To say more is to ruin it. Don't read the picture details or reviews. Just watch.
