This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

I was totally disappointed towards the ending sequences. The big reveal left me wondering just who did the research on Military and their families.Anyways, moving right along ... The delivery fails so dramatically I find it hard to give this fluke a better rating til I see it a second time to see if I missed something. The story hits all the right notes. Faith. Loss of faith. Failure. Redemption. Faith regained and the ending with all the soldiers standing watch and giving assistance boosts this story back up ... we are never alone.But it isn't enough of a boost after the wooden performances turned in by all the actors. For that I blame a lack of inspired direction and giving this excellent story i high rating after a failure of performance would reward a director wrongly.

This is a movie that has one of the most compelling stories i've ever seen. It deals with so many topics and issues and yet its not too broad either. I was amazed at the entertaining story, great soundtrack, good acting, and overall quality of the film. The story is really where this film hits home though. Covering an array of different topics and issues while not being one bit too broad or preachy this movie is a film worth watching. Though not everything is "perfect" this movies quality and heartfelt story makes it almost impossible not to pass up anything that would give it a low rating. Watch it you'll be amazed. **id also like to note how happy I was that this good of a movie was so "clean" of "questionable content.**

This movie I have to say is one of the best heart felt movies I have watched in a really long time. This movie to me is so good that I have watched it over 10 times. My husband has been deployed to Afghanistan before so this movie really hits home to me. I highly suggest watching this movie with your family because it is a great family movie but make sure you have tissues readily available! The ending of the movie completely shocked me because I did not see it coming. The singing is really good too! I do suggest that if you have little kids like ages 5 and younger make sure you use your discretion if you want them to watch.

I have watched this movie 5 times in the last two months. I have had everyone who comes to my home watch it! This movie inspires me to thank every military member I see in my path! It has a twist in the storyline which makes it unpredictable and entertaining. It touches deep to many people with addictions, loss of family members and abuse! Life struggles are a common thread we all share and this story touches on them and gives hope. My five year old loves to sing along and I am floored by Henry's amazing voice! I hope to see him go far with his singing career. I don't recognize these actors but I believe they did a wonderful job in their roles. I felt sadness, anger, happiness, worry, hope and love. Great movie! Thank you
