Po

An autistic son makes life difficult and also a joy for a father who lost his wife and found himself struggling to cope with work, his son's education, and the lack of understanding the "normal" world has for this condition.

To say that it is poorly written is an euphemism. This is one of the worst movies that I have ever seen. It is unrealistic in so many ways that ir almost hurts. Even if it truly represents the challenges of parenting a child with autism, it is impossible to take it seriously since the depiction of the world/society/environment is so far from real.

Even the soundtrack can upset anyone: there is a main song which goes with everything that's played every 5 minutes, loosing it's meaning and making the experience of watching this movie even worse.

If it wasn't for the two main actors, who were surprisingly good, given that their línes were usually terrible, I would rate it even lower.

This is a beautiful movie! If you have a child with Autism, if you know a child with Autism, if you know someone who knows someone with Autism this is a must see movie! It gives a clear view into a world that many of us know too little about. The movie was beautifully shot and I can't get over how Julian Feder just nailed it playing a child with Autism. This is a movie that can make a difference in a lot of peoples lives!

As someone who has worked in the autism field for nearly a decade, I can vouch for "Po" as a film that captures the everyday challenges of thousands of families across the globe. Director John Asher's emphasis on the rawness of autism is met with magical cinematography that transports the audience to places beyond fantasy. Asher is the father of a son, Evan, who is on the autism spectrum, and insights from his personal experience are evident in the film.

Expertly written, the storyline grabs the viewer and takes them on a ride across the fine line of imagination and reality. Christopher Gorham and Julian Feder are an on-screen "dream team" - connected, convincing, and compelling.

"Po" is a brilliant film worth seeing again and again.

John Asher and Julian Feder along with the original music from Burt Bacharach have created a film that is like no other. The cinematography, script, and brilliant acting all come together to show the world what autism is really like. The result is a truly honest film that shows the joys as well as the struggles of having an autistic child. John Asher was able to accurately show us how an autistic person lives and the beautiful world only they can see. One that is often so hard for them to share with the world. Using correct terminology to explain what autism is and how it affects someone, the film can help a viewer understand autism more fully. The relationships created through out the film are honest with reality and move the story along at the perfect rate. Centered around such an important topic, the film is both bold and gentle. It has times of comic relief, but be sure to bring some tissues.

I highly, highly recommend seeing this movie. It is one that will change the way this world sees autism.
