This is a wonderful film about love and acceptance, and the cruel insensitive boors who post negative reviews are deficient and soulless germs. We should bully them. I bet if they had kids, they wouldn't like it if they were bullied. I hope their kids grow up to put them in a shady old folks home where they get bullied by the staff!! That'll learn em!

A very well made, sensitive, family film. This film was shown in a theater in Chicago on a Friday afternoon. There were two showings. The entire rooms were filled with school aged children between the ages 6-10. I thought that this was wonderful that teachers brought all of these kids to see a film that truly teaches tolerance and acceptance for children with handicaps or disfigurement. Some of the children cried but most of them applauded the film. I think that their reaction is the best review of the film. Go see it and ignore the dozens of reviews below that keep calling it schmaltzy, syrupy etc. All of these negative reviews appear to be written by the same insenstive young person with a very low IQ who uses the same words over and over to criticise the film.

I loved this movie. The acting was fabulous and the story so heartwarming! Julia Roberts, Owen Wilson, and the young boy who played "Auggie", all deserve Oscar nominations. I cried a few times in this movie and the ending was perfect - a great, feel good movie for the holidays. If it wasn't good, it wouldn't have last 6 weeks at the box office!
