Others can discuss the nuts and bolts and the philosophical questions raised by this film.
All I have to say is... by the end of this film my wife and I were running to our children with hugs, kisses, and tears a plenty.
There are some moments in this film that are beyond poignant. One line of dialog rates up there with the best I've ever heard in any film.
Watch it and hurt for both sides and then realize the treasure and wonder that are your children.
If you want something to loosely compare this to, I would have to go with GONE BABY GONE. The only thing that could've made this one any better was Morgan Freeman.
One film related note...Mira Sorvino... just wow.
