Absolutely Heartwarming and Charming, a TV Masterpiece

I admit it, movies about disabled people drive me absolutely crazy. While watching films such as "i am sam" or "Tru Confessions" I feel an overwhelming amount of sympathy for the disabled character. What makes these movies even more unbearable, is the discrimination these characters face in the real world. Now, as unbearable as they are to me, I feel I should note that these movies are priceless treasures. "Tru Confessions" Rates as one of the only 10 movies that has ever made me cry. Shia Labeouf plays the tender role of Eddie the disabled little brother of Tru, a girl trying to figure out her life in the middle of parents who won't listen or don't care and a little brother she is forced to defend and watch out for. This is a great example of powerful acting and a driving story. Shia, my man, excellent work. I haven't seen this kind of acting from a young man your age since...I can't remember. Clara Bryant, excellent work also.Watch for this film. I think we all know Disney's replay reputation, I'm sure you'll run into it at some point.

Great!!!

I really liked Shia LaBeouf in this movie--he protrayed a handicapped person very well. But Tru's attitude was a lot worse in the movie than in the book. She was a total jerk in the movie, but not as much in the book.This movie was really touching, and I loved the part where Billy Meier fell in the lake!!!

One of the best movies I have ever seen!

This is one of the best movies I have ever seen, if not THE best of all. I am 14, and my brother is very much like Eddie, although much younger. I think it is very important to get the word out about disabled people.The plot is also very nice and well thought-out. It is very touching. I must admit that I cried through much of the movie. Shia LaBeouf (Eddie) does a WONDERFUL job of portraying a kid with Asperger's/High Functioning Autism.A lot of my friends' favorite insult to call is "retard." Maybe after seeing this movie they will change their minds.Rating: 10/10, without a doubt.
