Hopeful Notes

Good movie missing some senses we seen it on pure flix.

Seen the trailer looks to be a very good movie. Great story line ( you need to find the trailer online to see what I mean.) the trailer was so powerful I mean it was not hype but real good acting.

A little muddled at first the the movie takes off well done, Surrounded by sick children is a hospital ward for terminal ill kids in Russia.

very bad movie

It's not a great movie, but not a bad movie either. It was like watching a play. The acting was terrible except for the male lead. He was exceptional. The acting was so bad we thought perhaps there is a story behind the movie, such as were these really sick children and not actors? The female leads were trying but were terrible. A distraction. Hard to follow the story unless you read the jacket cover description. Would not recommend.

A good portrayal of human emotion in the reality of a Childrens hospital in Russia. Since Chernobyl I am sure this is more common place than an exception. I know of many Christian organizations from America that fly at their own expense to comfort children in Russian hospitals and encourage them with gifts, music and song. Not as an organization per se' but as a group with a common goal, to comfort the afflicted and bring joy to their lives, if only for a season. A few weeks at a time several times a year.This movie showed a similar portrayal with a man not really interested at first, but quickly drawn to the simple needs of the children, to be children, creative with much joy and imagination. Worth watching with older children 6 -14 years of age.Brian

It was a very sad movie. All about children in a hospital that were terminally ill. When I watched the trailer, it showed only the good parts of the movie which was pretty much at the end of the movie. If I could do it all over again, I would not have bought it.

Powerful yet clean. One of the best!
