I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Too much of everything

A Masterpiece!

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Written by Jeffrey Caine ('GoldenEye', 'The Constant Gardener') and directed by Damien O'Donnell ('East is East'), this is a heart-warming, character-driven comedy-drama which teaches you how to live, and inspires you to be the best you can possibly be. The film moves you, as well as finds humour in the most unusual places, and that's what makes the movie so enjoyable.Michael is sad, dull ans shy guy in a Home-for-Disabled who has cerebral palsy and can't talk comprehensibly. Rory, the new guy with muscle dystrophy, is a complete rebel and has a way with his words and wit. Both their lives change for the best.Jsmes McAvoy and newcomer Steven Robertson are brilliant and funny in their portrayals of Rory and Michael respectively. The background score is captivating.

Best comedy I have ever watched. Its very funny and not degrading to people with special needs. Its made on a low budget which doesn't take from it. It is very Irish which adds to its charm. Although funny it has some sad scenes. Its something men and women will both enjoy. Makes you more aware of the problems special needs people have. The main male actors are very good. I would like to see a sequel. Its a great idea that could have a follow up.If i was to try and pick faults for me i would say the love story part could have been more convincing or passionate and the sad part drags out a bit to much for a comedy. Other wise it is great a laugh a minute. Funny but simple and normal laughs. Brilliant.

This movie left me amazed. and sad. and happy.It's about two men in wheelchairs, who are living their life. that's all I'm gonna say because it really doesn't more.My mom works with people with disabilities and I've seen it really close and it's amazing how this movie portrays the two main characters. I've got nothing bad to say about it. It shows that people with disabilities have feelings, desires, different moods, intelligence, sense of humor etc. They're people as much as we all are. The human in you doesn't disappear even if you can't talk like others.James McAvoy and Steven Robertson make the performances of their lives. They make the characters real and raw. Not too independent or annoying, not too helpless, but enough to make them human. They made me laugh so that my stomach was aching and they also made me cry so that I couldn't see the TV screen.I think everyone should see this movie. It shows that even when things aren't the way you would want them, you can still live your live fully. you just have to do it. live it.

This movie is wonderful. Great acting, solid story, inspiring theme, endearing characters (even with all of their faults). As the story unfolds more and more is revealed about the characters and how the evolve, even during times of conflict. For this movie is about mutual respect and support and how unity of effort can produce remarkable results. Two young men form an improbable but powerful bond that enables them to break the bonds of institutionalization and regain control of their lives. What a story! Far from feeling sorry for these fellows, they are deserving of admiration and respect, which is what this movie is about. Michael and Rory. What a team! They are great! Three cheers for them!
