JayH.May 4, 200855.5/10. It means well but winds up too preachy and tackles too many issues for it's own good. Vanessa Williams gives an earnest and sincere performance, the rest of the cast does well too.

AdeleS.Mar 18, 20078A warm love story of two brothers struggling in proverty when faced with the death of their mother. Flashback on train too long, ending too abrupt.

Writer-director Anthony Lover takes such a kid-gloves approach to his handicapped co-star that he achieves the opposite of the intended effect: Every time Scott enters a scene, it's as if someone just told the entire cast "Whatever you do, don't say 'retard.' "

30What it possesses in heart and goodwill, it sorely lacks in narrative skill and artistic depth.

50The first half of Lover's film is surprisingly affecting...But the film comes apart in its second half, when James' flight triggers a long series of flashbacks to the brothers' childhood.
