About this movie

Rosie O'Donnell, Denis Leary, Dana Delany and Joseph Cross star in this feel-good comedy about the laughter, excitement and fun that comes with being a kid! Joshua (Cross) is a thoughtful ten-year-old looking for some simple answers to life's eternal questions. The problem is that no one - including his concerned parents (Leary, Delany) and his colorful 5th-grade teacher (O'Donnell) - seems to be making any sense. Therefore, Joshua makes it his personal mission to unravel the mysteries himself. . . and in the process reminds everyone what it's like to wake up to the world for the very first time. With great performances from an incredible cast, you'll love all the comedy and adventure in this unforgettable motion picture.

About a boy who learn about life and death. He and Grandpa were best buds. When the Grandpa gets sick and dies. Josh (the boy) stop believing in God. While looking something me kind of sign like a miracle. Through his best friend he later sees himself a gift of Grandpa he's fine not to worry. I loved this movie and best one I've seen in a long time. You have not enough stars for this one.
