The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

If you're not a Star Trek fan, don't be put off, it's a minor sub plot. Great film which shows some of the struggles autistic people suffer everyday but with a lighthearted take. Worth the watch!

I don't really watch dramas and I wasn't sure I would enjoy this movie so I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. The story and acting were both superb. I was immersed from start to finish. Dakota Fanning was just spectacular. I fully recommend watching this.

I started this movie because of Dakota Fanning and I'm glad that I did! She has given her all once again and I wasn't disappoInted! This film won't win many awards (no violence or sex) but it will be time well spent with the family.
