Its such a great movie. I can relate to it in so many ways. Its a touching emotional movie that makes me watch it time after time again and never gets old. The only reason why I gave it 4 stares instead of 5 is that when I watched it in HD I don't know if its because its a older movie being in the Google play store so it is blotchy at some point in the movie a lot more frequently then the other movies I rent or buy in HD I thought it was because it was an older movie being on the Google Play Store. Buy it.

That was a good movie. I don't want to ruin it by saying anything further, just watch it. It's full of just the right amount of drama.

This movie is so underrated but all the good stuff is! This film is the truth. I believe this is Toby Maguire at his best! This movie will have you crying! It is very sad so be warned! It's a movie about war and the effects of PPD!
