The most enjoyable and heartwarming film I've seen, 15 August 2008

Henry Poole Is Here was definitely one of the best movies I have ever seen. It had so many great scenes dealing with GOD and life situations. This movie had everything you could think of starting with drama, comedy, love, depressing, and happy. It made me cry in many different parts in the movie. I think that everyone should at least see this movie once. It really left me shocked from some of the things you learn in this movie. I loved the whole cast in this movie. The whole movie really just keeps you interested. I was so happy with the outcome of this movie. This movie will change the way you think of GOD after you see it. The acting was very good. The story was amazing. I loved what was behind all of the characters backgrounds. Luke Wilson was the best actor for his role in the movie. Rhadda Mitchell was very good as well. The movie itself though is very slow moving and boring. If you can deal with that though then you will love this movie. The whole entire movie takes place at Luke Wilsons home and the super market. The movie had great romance as well. Overall this was one of the best movies ever made. It is enjoyable for all ages so go see it. Give it a chance and you will love it. One last thing is don't listen to the critics on this one. This movie has way more to it than you think from the trailer. It is amazing go see it and enjoy.
