    Went to the red carpet premiere after reading the book. Thought the cast was fantastic. Hollywood made a good movie based on a true story. It is real life so not much of what sells movies today is here but it is worth seeing. Bring some tissues and get ready to have your heart challenged by what can happen at a Union Gospel Mission (though you won't have the gospel preached to you). I am going again to see it with friends.

    This movie beautifully portrayed forgiveness, love, and compassion. Renee Zellweger and Greg Kinnear were both OUTSTANDING--in fact, the entire cast was great. Based on a true story. I wish they would make more movies like this--clean, wholesome entertainment, but true to life situations.

    This movie is real. It is NOT a fast-paced action movie - but it is very genuine. I would highly recommend reading the book - which is - as always - much better than the movie!

    I love this movie. It was so real. Your emotions will get touched for sure. This true sorry will touch your heart as it explores various themes like slavery, racism, love, charity, forgiveness etc. A must see. Very powerful, very well done, great acting.

    We went on the high ratings but did not agree in any way- this movie was the biggest waste of time and money to date. (we left early) The filming was dark (why?) the story and dialogue boring and pointless. Don't (I repeat don't) waste your money and time.
