I couldn't get past 5 minutes, her voice is distracting and not in a good way! Romance is my favorite genre so I was willing to watch regardless of the low rating, but how can I listen to this voice for over an hour!

Some one else said this. DO YOURSELF AND WATCH THIS MOVIE . It speaks volumes for a young man like Ethan to have such a beautiful gift from God. He us so talented and played the part very well. Love, love this movie about Courage , and character ...

If you want great acting, then this isn't your movie. If you want a great plot or even a realistic one, same answer. But if you like movies with kids and a good piano performance, then this is a fun movie.

100% sappy. Maybe 10% realistic. After Lacey Chabert who is barely in this, and Jonathan Bennett, most of the adult actors are like they are in community theater. Some of the kids aren't bad. The story is a little slow and very predictable, but it's heartwarming.

But the total gem in this movie is 12 year old Ethan Bortnick. He plays a prodigy and he comes off a little like a savant and maybe even as very high functioning autistic. But his piano playing is golden. He performs several piano numbers at length, and a couple are repeated more than once. But remember it is the kid playing, not someone else, and what's more, he wrote the original songs he plays. He even sings. This is someone who has performed on national TV.

The kids have fun. Almost everyone in the movie is encouraging. But this is not a religious movie. If anything the theme is - you can do anything if you believe in yourself.
