The inspiring true life story of Jose Hernandez, a Mexican immigrant who set his eyes and heart on the sky from the time he was a child...

There is a lot to say about the movie but; When Jose asked his father "You say you're tired but you don't show your tiredness, how do you do that?". His father's advice to him, sums up the whole movie in the best way:

1. Set your goal 2. Know how far away you are 3. Draw a roadmap 4. If you don't know how, learn it 5. (And most importantly) the moment you say "I finally did it!", you may have to try even harder.

One of the best biopics of 2023 and the motivation you're looking for ;)

9.5/10 A million miles away is a really good movie. It is inspirational and heartfelt. The two main actors #michaelpena and #rosasalazar were outstanding in their roles. Their chemistry felt authentic. Rosa steals the scenes she is in as the supporting wife. The film portrays the struggles of Jose Hernandez and his migrant farmworker family and how they overcome them. It is fun and never boring. It is funny and emotional and makes you cheer for Micheal Pena's character. The film keeps you engaged from beginning to end. The music was great. Everything about this film was wonderful. If you have a chance, watch it!

I liked this movie for the honest approach it took to the times but didnt let that overshadow or even crowd the real message, which is - follow your dreams - or maybe - dreams CAN come true.

Although my mother's parents were from Mexico, I knew nothing of the culture or hardships until about 10 years ago when I took a job in South Texas and an older man shared a few stories with me. It was eye-opening, almost unbelievable to hear how hard some people had it. But he didn't only share the hard times, they had happy times, as a family.

So thankful to the writers, directors & producers for keeping us focused on the dream and not making the movie all about pain.

Because I watch movies to be entertained, to take me away from everyday life and I love a happy ending. This is a light-hearted story of not getting sidetracked while following your instincts. Great acting, music was very nice, altogether a great movie.

Wow! What a film ive seen after a long time. Its totally human and natural. I dont see directors over doing it which makes it beautiful. He is a family man with ambitions and I am glad that the portrayal of migrants is excellent. Would strongly recommend it to parents/students looking for some inspirational content. The acting was marvelous. The sets were great as well. The film portrays American rural life, ambitious struggle for education and a dream larger than life. Moreover its humanized in every sense as it portrays rich family and cultural values amongst migrants. A true definition of American dream for outsiders. Beautiful film!!!!!

Viva Michael Pena. One thing comes to mind, a true story is a true true you can't make it up, everything else becomes technicality.

Another thing to me it doesn't mater where you coming from because it's all about soul and tenacity and persistance and character, and I could go on and on, they are not enough movies like this one these days, it reminds us today, when we certainly do need it, what America is all about. Actors are wonderful, their acting is so transparent they have created a movie so real it seems we are living every second of their lives.

And of course I wasn't crying watching the movie, I got something in my eye.
