This is a good movie. Good cast. It puts your life in perspective. How fast your life can turn into something else. Worth a watch, perfect couples weekend movie. You'll cry, you'll laugh and you'll be feeling good and sad. 7/10

This true story of a mortgage salesman becoming quadriplegic is interpreted very well by Aaron Paul and the other actors (it's good to see Tom Berenger again), believable and touching.

Speaking as someone who suffered the exact same injury as Adam. I could relate to this film. Whilst I didn't have a high powered job like Adam, I know what it's like when you break a small bone in your neck can have such a traumatic effect on your life.

Overnight you lose your job your house my girlfriend left me. And most of all your independence Having to rely on family members carers just to do the most simplest task that you previously took for granted, like dressing going to the toilet etc. I've seen a few films about disability, and whilst it is not without faults it's about as close to the truth as I have seen in a movie.

Aaron Paul does a decent job in the role, clearly he has studied the problems faced by severely disabled people. And the support cast are all good having to cope with Adams frustrations 8/10

This film is truly a gem, strange that it went so quietly and not reviewed; based on a true story, the film deals with the daily problems of disability in all its angles, facets, problems; the cast is well established, the lead role is of Aaron Paul who does a really good job, but also the supporting cast that sees actors like Lena Olin, Tom Berenger, Shannon Lucio, Jeff Daniels and a rediscovered Tom Sizemore. The film was shot in 2011 and it is not clear why it only came out in 2020, perhaps problems of distribution; in any case it is an excellent film, very touching, even photography does a good job; definitely worth seeing, highly recommended.

Aaron Paul - very talented actor, but unfortunately, wildly underappreciated

This Film is based on a True Story. ADAM (Aaron Paul) is a successful Mortgage Broker, but has a terrible accident that puts him in a wheel chair and thru months of grueling therapy both physical and emotional. A Very Dramatic Movie with Rich characters and Story that is both Inspiring and Heartfelt and a little Sad. Great Cast of Actors !! Lena Olin nails the Russian accent of her role. Tom Berenger plays Adam's Father . Filmed In Detroit MI and for some reason it took 8 years to be released ? Odd as this is a well put together production ! Funny at times too. 😆 on Amazon Prime.

This is a film that made me laugh and made me cry. The acting is superb and the characters were very engaging. It opened my eyes to the struggles and hardships and I feel glad that I watched it to be able to appreciate that my own problems are comparatively minor.

A hidden treasure! I have recently suffered a minor but significant injury, and this film was just what I needed to stop feeling sorry for myself. My favorite character is Yevgeniya; she is so real, so magical. Adam is your typical I-can-have-my-cake-and-eat-it-too kind of guy, but his resolve is shaken, and he has to come to terms with what he cannot do, before he can discover that there is a whole wide world waiting for him. I would recommend this film to everyone who is going through or struggling with life-altering changes.

Beautiful, happy, sad, funny. What an absolute cracker of a movie!

So beautifully done & Aaron Paul never seises to amaze me. So heartwarming & really makes you feel the storyline.

I hadn't realised that this movie was filmed some time ago. Truly inspiring story that myself and my wife thoroughly enjoyed. Worth the rental.

Adam is a young worker who is at his best. In addition to receiving a promotion, he lives a romance. However, an accident leaves him a quadriplegic, changing his life completely...

What a beautiful and sad movie, I love these overcoming biographies, it hurts and makes our hearts warm, at first we were angry with Adam, his behavior with the family, with the nurses, then we understood and had pity, we realized that they go through unimaginable difficulties, and finally we are happy with your victory and determination, it makes us reflect a lot about life, how much we don't value it and how much we complain about small things...

Truly inspiring story to never let anything stop you from living your life or bring you down, Shows to live life as never know what's round the corner and no matter what happens do all you can do to make yourself happy.

Aaron Paul is a great actor and played the main role unbelievably and studied the difficulties of living with a disability or having you adapt to an accident and no matter the circumstances never let them get on top of you.

Would highly recommend this film to anyone. One of the most emotional films and inspirational stories.

I must say i have a weakness for Aaron Paul since i discovered him in Breaking Bad. He has such a sincerity in bringing good guy characters past the screen, that in fact i do believe he is an amazing human being. I will search for other titles with negative characters to see if he is equally convincing.

Based on a real life story, the movie is emotional and worth watching both for the storyline and amazing acting by Aaron Paul and Lena Olin.

All in all, the movie conveys the idea that hope and happiness are possible even in the darkest of times. The main character does in fact get back to his old job and even gets the promotion and ... finds love.
