wiki119 The reviews got me, I got played. Sure, it shows how a Foster-Care Facility functions which could've been concluded in 5 minutes. The rest of it was absolute trash, No character development, No Plot or Drama just a bunch of overly zoomed-in shots on Poker faces and needless dialogues to fill in between. Sorry I can't sympathize with characters if I don't know how they feel. There are many movies that do better job depicting a disturbed childhood. What a disappointment.

nicktatta I grew up with abuse and this movie is heart warming and real.not easy to watch, but if youve had tough times it just makes sense. The emotions are on point. Brie Larson is brilliant. Marcus is spot on. And it is also cute and funny while being authentic and heavy. Doesn't try hard at being anything though. It just works

jacobfrasier Probably my favorite story about heartbreak, overcoming obstacles, and the patience to understand life's ups and downs. And Brie was amazing.

Gre da Vid Adults, who as teens, had troubled past help teens who have a troubled past in a home for about a year before they are released. Well written and performed and well worth the time to view this film.
