I could personally identify with everything.
Tom Hanks great acting once again. A grumpy old man dealing with real life issues, yet he takes time to help his neighbors all of them no matter who they are or where they are from. Good example of LOVE THY NEIGHBOR.
It was funny!! It was deep! It was entertaining! It was emotional!! Yep I got teary Eyed!!
The relationship between Marisol and Otto. Ups and downs, just like in real life.
Themes of grief and caring are handled beautifully. Outstanding performances by Tom Hanks and Marisa Trevino.
The wife said Tom Hanks made a movie about me I'm flattered I think
The story line. It was factual and life like. People deal with their life’s hardships and good times in a variety of ways. There is no right or wrong. Great movie, I really enjoyed it!
I really liked this movie. I especially liked the character of Marisol. Marisol and Otto complimented each other nicely.
I read the book years ago, thought it excellent and went to see the movie opening day. Again, excellent--Tom Hanks and Mariana Trevino (Marisol) were both outstanding. Our world is full of people with "quirks/flaws" yet they are kind and show compassion to others. This theme resounds throughout the book and movie and is a potential learning lesson for all of us living in these troubling times.
I was looking forward to this movie but it’s a snoozer and down in the dumps feeling. Sad movies ok but extremely boring. Wasted my time with this junk.
