I really enjoyed watching this documentary. Documentaries are my favorite genre of films. Although I love drama, suspense and entertainment, I love learning about real people and real issues happening in our world. I gave the film a 7 star rating, some of it dragged and was a bit non- cohesive at times, but overall, a good story with characters who were engaging. You really want all three of them to make it and go on to lead successful fulfilling lives. It's a feel good movie with a positive optimistic ending. It shows how we all struggle, but that there is hope for a brighter future. * One very minor spoiler. Greg Henson, the single dad who returns to school to get his diploma, has the cutest daughter who comes down with a case of epileptic seizures. Throughout the film, you see him and others smoking cigarettes constantly around his daughter which unfortunately can cause seizures in young children. Of course, the doctors or medical professionals do not mention this link (at least not on film) and so we see the need for education continues....
