CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Roberto Bellodi Is this even supposed to exist? This movie does nothing but send terrible messages to people crazy about parenting with no qualifications to be by showing the terrible non-parenting of an even crazier couple. It's already bad when you don't even file the papers for adopting a child because "we'd rather tell you a long boring story about why you must give us a child even if through said story we'll show you only what kind of terrible people we are", plus you add a nonsensical story of a fake child-plant that grows up from a crazy couple that think is real, make them NEVER act like they even care about this discount Jesus that came out of nowhere, nagging and complaining about everything but what's to be complaining about, and never EVER questioning their horrible non-parenting? Who wrote this movie is absolutely insane and has no idea how to parenting. Just because you add that stupid pretentious wonder-like music doesn't mean your horrible screenplay becomes good, if anything makes it even worse. This movie isn't just horrible, it's a horrible movie that thinks is wonderful and charming. Well, guess what? It's not. It just sucks.

The Odd Life of Timothy Green isn't just full of great performances by Jennifer Garner, Joel Edgerton and CJ Adams who are just flawless and great to just look at but that kid gives them a powerful lesson he knew that he was going away and slowly he prepared those 2 people how to become parents but also the drama is just spot on this kid gets bullied by Cindy's sister, his coach and even his father's boss and yet he doesn't give up. As for the ending it hit me right in the feels Timothy gave all of his leaves to each person that he cared about or just wanted to give a powerful message to his coach, Uncle Bub, Ms. Bernice Crudstaff, James Green Sr. and even Joni who got 2 the film ends with the family adopting a little girl and living a happily ever after kind of a story thanks to a great talented cast, characters and a powerful message The Odd Life of Timothy Green is simply Spectacular!!
Naijshua I finished watching this film tonight and I'm glad I decided to watch it. If I were to listen to others I wouldn't been able to tell you how great it is. It could have been worst but I discovered for myself that it was great. Like all things in life you should try to take in as much as possible until your time is up. Enjoyable characters, wholesome story, and it just made me smile. Even teared up at the end.I'll definitely recommend this movie to friends with the warning always form your own opinions. I hope anyone reading this opts to do the same. Damn I should have a been actor ..... may it's not to late ;) for now I'll just keep watching random movies as inspiration and hoping I keep running into the films like this one.
Sally Warner I loved this movie. Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Garner make a wonderful set of parents. I love both of them on any day and as enthusiastic and lovable parents they are fantastic. A lovely and moving fairy tale a sort of Cinderella in reverse. Sympathetic moving and lovable. I like Benjamin Button and this is sort of like it. The child is sympathetic and has a great future as an actor - he played the role really well. I just love slice of life movies and this is a good one. Joel Edgerton is a wonderful Australian actor serious but full of enthusiasm and good will. (See The Secret Life of Us if you want to know why). Jennifer Garner is 13 going on 30 all over again - gentle and honest. I just love it.
