Perfect cast and a good story

Good movie but grossly overrated

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

After watching this movie it becomes virtually impossible to not scroll through your Facebook news feed and not see it all as trivial. It's hard to not see your life and the way you have been living it as trivial. I find it difficult to give this movie something as trivial as a rating, a 10/10. It captures something some real, so raw that it transcends such binary terms as good or bad. This "movie," rather, is beautiful. I feel like a spectator or tourist to this reality of life. To the pain and suffering, to the loss and sorrow. If these are the things that comprise our lives what drives us on? What drives those children in that remote village on? Is life truly worth fighting for? Are such minuscule moments of love and happiness worth the years of anguish that ensue when the very ones that are the causes of such love and happiness are taken from us? It all makes life fell so tedious. And yet it's those moments that make life matter. It's the tears that are testaments that life matters to us, even the most seemingly inconsequential life of a girl or boy half way around the world with AIDS. While a rating would be so inappropriately trivial I cannot help but to give the movie my highest regard.

This has to be my favorite non-fiction film this year. The first scene is so overwhelming. I sat on the edge of my seat the whole time... It made me cry, and laugh. Exceptional, simple, raw beauty is in this film. Rocky's unconditional love for the kids, acceptance, thoughts on disease and death and personal introspection really moved me. The scene with Suriya, where he is hospitalized troubled me so. And I am a nurse, so I've seen a lot, but this little boy...omygosh..AIDS is hell on earth...The pain he has been through is unbelievable. His ultimate choice at the end really made the movie unforgettable. wow, kudos Rocky you really are a hero

The most moving Documentary I have ever seen. The editing was great. It was like we were there with them. I was moved by the day to day struggles, and hungered for the little victories. Some parts were difficult to watch. You will want to bring tissue paper for this one. There really are no films or documentaries that are similar, but Rocky's Journey does remind me of the Journey that Mother Teresa took. His life is a brilliant example of what love is. Well done. I was frustrated for driving over 30 miles to go see it. Having seen it, I would gladly drive 300. I look forward to hearing more about the hostel and opportunities to make a difference.

Blood Brother is a beautiful and compelling story that takes the audience on an emotionally complex journey with Rocky Braat, Steve Hoover, and HIV positive Indian orphans. What I loved most about this movie is that it demonstrates that true love gives a person the strength to do and endure things far beyond what that person could ever imagine that s/he could do and that even the most ordinary person has the capability of doing and being a part of something extraordinary. One of the most poignant and hardest to watch scene was Rocky at the hospital taking care of the orphan near death. Rocky didn't just sit with the child, he acted as father and nurse staying by the child's side the entire time and cleaning up the oozing sores that covered his body including his eyes. Warning, this movie will leave you changed and will make you want to be a part of something outside of yourself.
