    Inspiring and uplifting.

    I've watched this twice and recommend it! The story may have been unbelievable except it's true. Get ready for goosebumps and a grab your hankie scene!

    The photography is lovely, and the actors who portray the real people who lived this do a superb job.

    I know many churches, youth groups and families would enjoy watching this on movie night and to inspire discussion about faith and how God works. There is some Catholicism but that doesn't mean all Christians can't relate, in fact I appreciated knowing that we all share doubts, fears and that when we pull together our faith fan grow.

    I also recommend googling the foundation started by the real life young man who wanted to reach other kids living with cancer. Recommended.

    Absolutely beautiful story and movie, highly recommend

    An absolutely beautiful story and movie, I highly recommend it and it is a movie the entire family can watch. No bad words, no inappropriate content doesn't matter the age 2 to 100 years old can watch this family entertainment.

    To think what this family must have gone through, I believe it is their only child at least that is what the movie implied there was never a sibling in the movie.

    This movie brings out every emotion imaginable, kudo's to the actors they did a great job. I will say, make sure to have tissues available, I think it will be hard for any woman to watch this and not shed a tear.

    I rated this movie a 10/10 because I believe it achieved every emotion it wanted the audience to feel. That to me is what movies should be about, and I am glad this movie achieved it.

    I will be recommending this movie to all my relatives and friends, it is a movie everyone can watch.

    Amazing, just amazing story and movie, highly recommend

    I was just amazed at how beautiful this movie is and should be watched by all individuals that believe in God and the goodness of the people in this world.

    First the story in itself is just so beautiful and the actors really brought this story home to show the emotions of a child that is diagnosed with cancer, let alone brain cancer. I commend the Newman family and the school community for showing the world never to give up on God and that prayer actually works and all things can be accomplished if you have faith.

    This movie definitely brings out all range of emotions, one minute you are excited Brycen's team won the game and the next minute you are crying because of a horrible cancer diagnosis. I thought Daniel Roebuck kept you smiling and laughing, when the movie needed it most. I give credit to all the actors for doing such a great job pulling the emotions out that the movie is portraying.

    This is without a doubt a must watch for those people of faith, don't listen to the naysayers that want to tear down faith and religion. This is a beautiful movie with an incredible true story. I highly recommend it for all ages, especially those individuals of faith. This movie restores your faith in God and humanity.

    Incredibly inspiring movie, a must watch.

    I was just blown away by how inspiring this movie is, so much so my wife and I have watched the movie 3 times already and we still cry in the same scenes in the movie even though we know what is coming. To me, that just shows how great a movie this truly is.

    It shows how much a community can make a difference in a child's life. I would recommend this to anyone of faith and family, it is without a doubt a must watch movie. To think that Brycen's high school and its community came together to help save this young man's life is just amazing.

    I thought Daniel Roebuck and Kathy Peterson "Ed & Marilyn Hanson" did a wonderful job as husband and wife and kept a very difficult subject light hearted which allowed you to laugh after you just finished wiping the tears away. Other great performances were Eddie McClintock "Rick Newman," Brennan Hunt "Alex," Nick Avila "Miles Himmel," they all did a fantastic job. The only critique would be Kory Gettman "Brycen Newman" some of his acting was way over the top, and I wish there were more scenes with Dean Cain "Dr. Getty" in them. The woman ER doctor Christin Jezak "Dr. Sam," sure did make you want to punch her, so she did a great job if that is how the role was written.

    I did check and this is a true story, you can google Brycen Newman and brain cancer and see all the news articles and news video clips to see what really happened and it looks like the movie really captured what this poor young man actually went through. I can't even begin to understand what Brycen's parents went through, but through their faith and the faith of Brycen's high school community it was a story book ending.

    I couldn't disagree with the other user review more regarding the incorporation of Rachel Platten's "Fight song" at the end of the movie. I have 3 relatives that have dealt with cancer and they have all said that this song is what fighting cancer is all about. Kudo's to the producer for using it at the end when Brycen was healed. As my sister Julie says, taking back your life from cancer is all you want to do, because cancer takes so much of your life in the first place.

    This is a 10 out of 10 rating for me, I wish there were more movies like this. I have recommended it to my kids and friends, I recommend you watch it also!

    If you believe in Faith and Family you definitely need to watch this movie, and it doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman bring some tissues, this is one of those movies that hits you right in the heart!

    On a side note, I would like to buy that Mustang! What a show stopper!

    Over rated

    Very nice story. Horrible acting, barely any emotion unless it was from the father or older actors. Main protagonist doesn't look like a teen and the transitioning between scenes was very odd. One moment he's in the hospital and the next hour they're going to operate without the dads permission? In what world does that happen. No attention to detail. But the dialogue, the dialogue is a real kicker... it is terrible. Movie is all of over the place. Had a lot of potential but with a low budget I guess there is not much to expect. The real story is very inspiring and this movie falls short of that.

    • Trivia
      The real Brycen Newman is in multiple scenes in the movie: he is baseball player "#4 Lombardi"; he is a football coach in the weight-lifting scene; he is in the prayer scene right below the actor playing him; and he plays an orderly in the hospital.

      When looking at the so-called '67 Mustang, it's actually a '65 Mustang. Big difference between the two if you know anything about Mustangs.
