  Excellent Movie - great story line of a man who, in spite of having everything (money, power, wealth) and still has to overcome a physical disability and fears

  BORING! Almost impossible to watch. If you haven't seen the show I will tell what happens, the guy stutters, thats all,thats the story. Did I mention it was BORING!

  FANTASTIC!!!!....I never felt so good after watching a movie as I did after this one.
