i absolutely love this movie during the free screening in san francisco this evening . at it end and the film receive clap and cheer and shout of approval by the majority of the audience . the child actor be terrific and especially freddie highmore whose facial expression alone carry more emotion than any screenwriter word could . the music be amaze . the guitar work and incredible singing by young leon g. thomas iii and and the gospel singer ( especially jamia simone nash ) . the blending of classical and rock and street sound music be phenomenal . the movie be funny and poignant and a tear jerker . heck with realism . i be more than ready for a little bit of magic in my entertainment these day . great film for family with teenage child . young one might be a bit frighten by and a someone else say and the fagan like character play by robin williams and the intro bullying . so this may be a film to rent on dvd to show the young one so parent can discuss scene with them or provide parental oversight for your particular child . but no bad language and no visible sex scene ( although we do know it occur ) and and overall a delightful film . i rarely if ever buy dvds except for old classic but this will be one of the exception . also and the soundtrack should be terrific . when can i see this again .
