- graciesilva7921 april 2026Great Great Great movie
- Gianni Cavuoto13 november 2025Ima sucker for a feel good story so I'm gonna say that this is one of the best movies in this arena I have seen. Angela Bassett is a little flat in this one. Usually she brings more punch, I'm gonna mark that down to direction vs a knock on her ability. Laurence Fishburn never disappoints in his diverse roles. He is a man who always brings it.....although I did want him to say just once "you can win this spelling bee Nemo". hahaha.
