A gift
A movie I wanted to see so my nephew got it for me as a early Christmas gift. It's a good movie and a tear jerker for me and my mom cried.

Old Fashioned Melodrama At Its Best
This tearjerker involving a custody battle over an orphaned child prodigy could have been cloying and manipulative but thanks to a smart and intuitive script by Tom Flynn it avoids the potential traps of the form. This is not to say we don't have a rooting interest here but Flynn invests the combatants with depth and complexity that by the film's conclusion we are not left with any convenient heroes or villains. The film works as well because the ensemble is universally excellent. The heart of the film, though, would be the performance of McKenna Grace as Mary Adler, the pint-sized math wizard. Grace invests Mary with wit, toughness, precociousness, and an indomitable spirit that belies her tender years. Grace draws you into the tug-of-war involving not only Mary's fate but wellbeing that is genuinely heartbreaking. It's easy to dismiss a film of this nature but it would be advised to throw all inhibitions into the proverbial dustbin. A film that recalls the spirit of Douglas Sirk.

Heartwarming Film!!!
I enjoyed this movie very much. I have always been a Chris Evan's fan!!! The cast is wonderful!!! The Movie made me laugh and cry. The relationship between Chris's character and his niece, played by McKenna Grace, are touching and heartbreaking. A look at what a family really is.
