This movie is kind of like taking one of those short stories in "Chicken Soup for the Soul" and making it into a film. As with most student films, it suffers a bit from less-than-perfect writing and directing, but I was actually impressed with the two lead characters. They were the best actors in the film, and so deserved and received the most screen time. Both did a great job. The story itself is inspiring, especially given the fact that it's true. I'd recommend the film to parents, teachers, or coaches who wanted to teach their kids a lesson about determination and goal-setting.
