    I had not heard anything about this movie and decided to give it a try. Turned out to be a good movie. Acting was good as well as the plots. I also learned a little about living with a brain injury. Not a waste of time.

    Starts a little slow but developes quickly. Very good acting by all concerned. After initially wondering about where the plot is going, a sympathy for the central character and where he is headed is felt. I found myself becoming truly interested in what will become of him and how his life will work out. I feel that this film starts off as a "2 star" and then becomes a "4 star +" before the exciting end.

    Joseph Gordon-Levitt did a fantastic job in this film! Jeff Daniels really showed how versitile he is. This movie showcases their talent. The script was well written and kept my attention throughout. I thought they could have developed his character a bit more pre-accident. Overall, I was entertained and recommend this movie!
