I really loved this movie (thanks for suggesting it, Ricky). I thought it was James Franco but the name was different... All these years I when I saw John Leguizamo I thought it was always James Franco. lol

This drama about a poor autistic kid with an abusive dad is decent, but it has a tendency to drag at times. The kid playing the autistic Zigzag is pretty good, the supporting cast is hit and miss. Goyer's directorial debut proves him competent but not exceptional, I think he is a better screenwriter.

Pretty cool how it was filmed at Del Rae restaurant.

(***): [img]http://images.chrc4work.com/images/user/icons/icon14.gif[/img] Interesting and with a good cast.

When Wesley Snipes first appears, you wonder, if there is going to be some tight action, or fight scenes that will be worth your while. However, you keep watching and then realize, Goyer must be related to an IRS agent. The lead character has been given little to no direction. There are facial ticks and speaking tendencies that appear and disappear, as if Goyer could't make up his mind how badly disabled the character should be. Leguizamo is totally impotent as the cancer ridden "big" that has the incredibly stupid idea of borrowing from a strip club loan shark to pay back money that his "little" stole, but no one knows he stole it, so, huh? The best part of the movie is when 'Zig Zag" tells his 'big' that he peed on his couch, but it was unlike any pee he did before. Brilliant. Thanks Goyer. Bloody horrible.

I saw the edited version on BETJ

The plot kept jumping half the time I admit I enjoyed watching Sam Jone III's performance but the film itself suffers. Not worth your time.

I saw the edited version on tv

Sad but not depressing. John Leguizamo was very good.

El autismo siempre ha despertado mi interés y también soy de corazón blando así que esta película ha hecho de mis delicias

Jodido drama de eso que nos muestra que el mundo no es una mierda a pesar de todo

this movie gives a messages to be understanding to the people with austism.

This movie was great. So emotional. It's about a mentally handicap kid. I almost wanted to cry when he was telling the story about how his dad hit him with a bat.. but you know I'm a guy.. so I just didn't...

Not bad Some really good acting from most of the cast...

This is an amazing movie....the acting done by Sam Jones is extraordinary...some ppl might look at it and seeing as "stupid-looking" or something like that but thats how an extreme autistic child would be. Its a really sad movie....there was this one bit when he saying about his happiest moment with his big brother was in fact.....I won't say it, you HAVE to watch the movie....that part just made me cry. Its a movie made to make ppl cry...........really good. =)

ok to watch...but that's it... could be a good tv movie. but it doesn't fit in your dvd collection

Very upsetting film. But quite good.

I have never watched this movie nor did I purchase it. It appeared in my dvd collection out of nowhere. I am afraid to watch it in case its one of those movies where you die 4 days later. Help me destroy it...please....

Emotionally charged to the end and endlessly endearing and heartfelt. A real surprise and showcases some real powerhouse performances notably from Leguizamo fantastic as always and sam jones 3 as the autistic boy in his care.

Excellent movie. Mentally disabled kid gets in trouble and his big brother is there to help him out.
