What do people say about this movie...
"Emotional ALS drama has sad scenes, strong language."
- Barbara Shulgasser, Common Sense Media
"Despite offering a well-timed look at the realities of the disease, the movie clunkily eschews cinematic creativity for emotional manipulation. Inquisitive ice-bucket challengers, consider yourselves warned."
- Marc Snetiker, Entertainment Weekly
