Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Ultra Dumb
I wanted to like this movie & I know that it's heart is in the right place, but it is probably the dumbest movie ever made. Dumb as in profoundly lacking in intelligence. As in trivializing something meaningful. I can't express how much I didn't like this.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Capra-like; simple and clumsy but sweet

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - what a gem, what a pearl
what an absolute delight, a gem of a piece of art, totally engrossing and a sort of movie you want to immediately, no, INSTANTLY, call friends and family alike, and tell them all about it...in great detail...on and on endlessly.....

Joshua Zhulke's performance can be laid on pace with that of Henry Thomas in E.T., Haley Joel in Pay it Forward or Edges of the Lord or Barrett Oliver in Neverending Story.

Awesome.

That quote sums up this movie.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - sweet & hopeful family fantasy
The Amazing Grace and Chuck is a feel good film that we need now in this time of bumbling policies and cynicism. Sure it is far-fetched, but so is Star Wars and The Wizard of Oz, and you don't see very many detractors of those classics.

The fact that the setting makes it seem real doesn't interpolate to actual reality, but there is a lot of morality to be learned from it in any case.

Then there is the splendid debut of the central Chuck, Joshua Zuehlk, who has never been seen ... Read More
