This is a true story about a boy named Justin who is born with Spina bifida. His family is very active in sports, and he is trying to live up to the reputation set by his fater and older brother. It is an insperiational story about over comming life's obsticles. I would reccoment this movie to be part of your collection for children as well as adults to enjoy. July 25, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteA Movie of Understanding and AcceptanceQuote
Through Justin's character I see a part of me, and other young disabled people who are trying to make a stand, showing who they are.
It was nice he'd won the prize trophy,but gaining respect was more rewarding.
Seeing his older brother react reminded me of my own family. A siblings "need" to be wanted, and not over looked, is common in a home like Justin's. Strangely awkward the "affected" wish for normalcy, and desire doing activities their loved one takes for granted. We would undoubtedly favor playing in their baseball games, than siting on sidelines looking onward, because our muscles don't allow. All those surgeries, rehab, and medicines we'd trade, in an instance, to run those bases,in a home run, and hear people erupt when we did so.
I recommend this to families of disabled kids, and their siblings who don't have a disability to understand the other side of the coin! April 12, 2008

A feel-good movie based on a true story. Frankie Muntz does a wonderful job of playing a boy with a shunt in his neck. The boy feels a need to be normal and find his niche like his older brother. I love his version of God. "God's explanations are pretty good for a race car driver. I don't care for the final scene in this movie but I can look over it.There are a few life threatening scenes that may be too intense for younger children but it is a sweet, sweet movie that I recommend to the whole family.

When I first saw this movie on the Disney Channel, I was 13, and from there I was totally in love with the movie. My nephew went through something similar, unfortuantly he passed away about a week after the movie Debuted. Frankie Muniz is so believable in this Movie that you actually believe he's going through it in real life. I think this is the Best Movie by far for Frankie Muniz.I was an avid Disney Channel viewer at age 13 and this film also had alot of Disney channel Stars in it. January 4, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteI could relateQuote
I have a vision impairment, so I could relate to having over-protective parents, but the thing that I related to more was Justin's brother. I had a severely handicapped brother (he passed away when he was 10) and so I can DEFINITELY understand where the brother was coming from. There is a constant struggle between wanting the same amount of attention that your "special" sibling is getting and being afraid something will happen to that sibling.

So in a nutshell, I thought it was a great movie. The part at the end where Justin gets to see what heaven looks like was kinda weird, but I think it was just a way of saying that in heaven everyone is on an even playing field. February 17, 2007
