Is it good?...yes and no. I really liked the film's message and think this is Christiano's best movie so far. However, the catch is that the 12yr old main character is madly in love with the young girl in the movie. Being in love isn't the problem, it's just that he's so young to be THAT involved with it. I think a few of the "I'm lovesick" scenes could have been cut, they get a bit redundant.

So, if you can get past that awkward part of the storyline then the rest of it is fantastic :) On the outside it seems to be a children movie but one of the main messages of the film is to challenge older people to consider the impact they can still have on the lives of others.
