Movie Reviews of Pay It Forward

Movie Review: The Best Movie I have seen!
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie was great. I am 15 years old, and I like action, mystery, and sci-fi. But when I rented this, I found that this movie was so great. The actors are great, and they fit the roles perfectly. The plot was interesting, with the whole motive to make the world a better place. The idea, no matter how simplistic, shaped this movie into a complex, yet fun movie to watch. Haley Joe Osmand is great, he fits the character perfectly since I have always thought of him as a bit odd, and I guess it is since his pervios acting roles, such as the Sixth Sense. But, unlike the sixth sense, he was totally different, and I believe he will be great in the future, not to say he isn't great now. Helen Hunt was also great, lately, she hasn't done much, but she is emmotionally great in this film, and all the other characters were great. Basically, this was a great film to watch. I chose it because I thought it would be interesting, and I chose to rent it when there was nothing else, but I was totally mistaken when I saw it. It was so... well, you will just have to see it.

Movie Review: A film that gives hope that we may yet redeem ourselves!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great film with the message that doing for others as we would have others do for us is indeed a noble and workable idea. Haley Joel Osment is great and Kevin Spacey puts in a great performance as one of his school teachers. Spacey as the cynical teacher challenges his students to find a project they can do during the school year which will "change the world." Osment's project is "Pay it Forward." Under the plan, Osment does something good for three people who, in turn, must do something good for three people, and so on. Ultimately Spacey develops a romantic relationship with Helen Hunt -- an alcoholic and mother to Osment -- who works two jobs trying to care for her son and fears that someday her husband may return home. All in all, its a super film. I don't want to give away the ending, but the film is one that is suitable for the family. It will surely get you thinking about what good deeds you may be able to do for someone today, without thought for yourself, and the good that it may do for the world.

Movie Review: Wonderfully conceived and brilliantly acted!!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an extraordinarily moving and thought-provoking film with a terrific cast. It's shot in a simple, straightforward way that doesn't get in the way of the story. The film is best seen with no preconceived notions of the plot or the story, so this review will not showcase either of those. The film asks a question: How can an individual dissatisfied with the world as it is go about making it a better place? Provided within the film is an answer, as simple as it is revolutionary, and as inspiring as it is illuminating.

This is a compelling movie, and watching it has been a profoundly moving experience. The cast is excellent, the acting is first-rate, and the direction is subtle and masterful. This is a film that deserves to be studiously watched and widely distributed. Seeing it can be a life-changing experience - it was for me!

Get this wonderful film, and give it the concentration it deserves, and then think deeply about the scenario within and the issues that are involved!! Highly, highly recommended!!!


Movie Review: its gotta be watched
Summary: 5 Stars

Pay it forward is brilliant example of life. i absolutely love this film and have it on dvd myself. the way it approaches the problems we all encounter in life is amazing. when trevor, the young boy just reaching 7th grade, thinks up an ingenious an wonderful way to make good reach the entire world, we can empathise with his quest as he is left alone regularly by his alcoholic mother and has come from a very disturbing background. when his teacher proposes that the class partake in an assignment whereby they must change the world, trevor gets very involved. i'v heard of a lot of people saying that the end scene was 'pinched' from field of dreams an i would like to put it straight that the end scene is perfect for this film. although it tugs harshly on the emotion strings the ending is perfect in every way. a valuable message to be taken from this film is no matter how bad it seems, a shimmer of good and hope is always there. my advice to everone is watch this film. i guarentee you will not be disappointed. x
