    AMAZING AND BRILLIANT

    This movie right here Gerald's Hands is an amazing movie for all ages. You can tell the passion and hard work that went into this movie from beginning to the end. Naz Pankey and Andrew McAllister are a force to be reckoned with from the writing to the acting. The writing is superb it tells the story of Gerald an Autistic young man who strives to live in a world that doesn't see him like others see him. This movie will make you laugh and make you cry. You better grab your tissues. This movie will bless you. The cast is talented and amazing. You will not be disappointed. This is a movie that we need.

    The importance of the film Gerald's Hands in today's world

    As a social worker that has worked with those who are on the autism spectrum, I am happy to write a very positive review for the film, Gerald's Hands. The film is not only excellent as far as the actors in the film, particularly Andrew R. McCallister, who plays Gerald, but also in the positive image that the film portrays about those that have dedicated their life in supporting and encouraging and helping those that are young and old who are similar to Gerald.

    The film is fast paced but does not shy away from looking at the ups and downs that are a part of human life and that are a part of Gerald's life. I recommend Gerald's Hands to all without reservation.

    Extraordinarily special!

    The spirit of God is present in this movie. Gerald's Hands will touch you deeply. It will make you feel human. I cried watching it. Your heart will feel for the character Gerald in a special way because special people do extraordinary things. It's no surprise because the creator Nadira Pankey and the star Andrew R. McCallister are extraordinary people. From watching this movie, I hope that more people will lead with kindness, and understand that being autistic isn't a disability. It's a superpower! Gerald's Hands is a movie about humanity and love. It's a movie combating bullying. This is a movie that celebrates good over evil, right over wrong. It's a story that highlights a superhero in Gerald. We are all superheroes, and we are all capable of being good people. Vote for Gerald and watch it on Tubi because it's the right thing to do, plus it's free. : )

    A Gentle Heart

    Gerald's Hands was an incredible movie. It was an aspiring movie that touched my heart in many ways. Most people in their lives will experience the hardships of bullying. This movie shows that but it goes a step further and shows you more Regarding this conflict.

    Consider the storyline of a simple man who just wants to be loved. Everyone wants to be loved and most of us find our way. But not everyone is Gerald as he becomes the victim from those who don't understand him. Gerald has a condition known as Autism. Most people who have this condition are highly functional but not everyone is Gerald.

    This movie highlights the beauty of this simple man as he finds a woman who really cares for him as is. I would actually call it a love story with a twist because not everyone agrees with a simple man on his journey to find life itself.

    Gerald Captured Our Hearts from the Very Beginning!

    Gerald, with an R-Rah Grabs Your Heart!

    After watching the trailer, I waited with great anticipation for this movie's release; I was not disappointed! From the very beginning, Gerald, with R-Rah captures your heart! Gerald's Hands is a movie that is unafraid to tackle real-life issues and do so unapologetically and authentically!

    People are usually called "change agents" well, I see Gerald's Hands as a "change-agent" movie because it highlights issues (Autism, Domestic Violence, and Bullying) we can no longer keep silent. The film also encouragingly opens up much-needed dialogue, and dialogue sets the course for action. Gerald's Hands is a triple-threat film that entertains, brings awareness, and inspires action! You will fall in love with Gerald and have "awe" moments throughout the film. Andrew R. McCallister did an outstanding job as Gerald! That's all my husband, and I kept saying throughout the movie! Kudos to Nadira Pankey for writing a compelling story with boldness while tackling such sensitive issues with care and grace! Kudos to this incredibly talented cast for doing an amazing job!
