Loved this. A True story about the way God works through people & animals. Honestly some of the supporting cast were a bit mediocre but the core performances were moving when it mattered & wherever the acting fell short the sheer magnificence of the story itself is sure to warm you heart. Again personally I loved this having been healed myself from childhood trauma & changed forever through the healing power of animals. Well worth the watch.

There are so many life lessons for us to learn from this movie. A pure, clean movie. Just goes to show that a movie does not have to have vulgarity to be a good movie. I loved it so much.

This movie treats autism as an illness that needs to be cured. Just feels off to me. They go on about finding a "cure," and "healing" the autistic child and it's feels distasteful... especially since the child actor seems to be a neuro-typical boy playing on common stereotypes. Lastly, I'd consider the acting fairly good for the budget of the movie. Reminds me of a hallmark movie overall, but with a few offensive undertones.

There is no little man watching everyone everywhere all at once. Take a realistic look at what religion is. The Bible says it's true because it's the Bible. Really? Religion is a way for the powerful to keep control. You people who watch this movie and love it's "Christian Message" are all being duped. Wake up already.

I don't have a child with autism but if I did I would be insulted by the ignorance of the writers/producers. Autism is not a disease to be cured. It can be treated and managed and helped, including with methods like working with animals, but it's not a sickness to be cured.

And I don't suppose they went into this expecting to get any Oscars for acting (and I didn't watch it expecting any Oscar worthy acting), but couldn't they have found a better child actor for the autistic character?

Was just hoping for a little feelgood, Heartland type vibes, but the movie didn't produce, unfortunately. I liked the female actors though.
