“The whole movie plays out like a giant St. Jude hospital commercial.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhile i feel the acting is good and draws the viewer in for an emotional movie experience, it seems like the screenplay was written for just that purpose. The writers create an emotional roller coaster where the only option is to donate money to St. Jude. The movie follows a familyu0026#39;s struggle with a terminally ill child, but with frequent references to the St. Jude hospitalu0026#39;s staff and general medical care itu0026#39;s hard to get lost in the plot. Next time iu0026#39;d rather just watch their late night infomercials and skip the movie part of it. Not my ideal movie watching experience.”
