| User ReviewDavid LI loved how he never gave up and endured with a silent wisdom. |
| User ReviewChanna SThis film was so heartwarming, and at times heart-wrenching. It deserves to be seen by more people. I think there should be a campaign to let people know about it, because it really has left quite an impression on me. One of my favourite films ever! |

| User ReviewJesse Li really liked this movie. and its one my mom brought home too! |
| User ReviewMatthew Hpretty good. simple plot that's easy to understand. meaningful |
| User ReviewDavid FPredictable but who cares.....it's James Earl Jones teaching lil kids how to read and helping them stay outta trouble. James Earl Jones! The story follows the standard made-for-TV procedures yet I followed the whole thing. Jones commanding presence and wide range is enough for me. There certainly is worse Hallmark fare out there just waiting to pull them heartstrings. |
| User ReviewWayne HNice little made-for-TV movie with James Earl Jones. I enjoyed the movie and the good-natured plot. I've never heard about 'reading rooms' before. I don't know if they truly exist anywhere ... but, it was a nice idea. It also shared a nice way for a retired businessman to dedicate his time and life. I recommend the movie to my FB-friends. |
