Coração de Corredor

This film tells the story of a high school athlete, who is especially talented and fit in running. His life is changed when his classmates and girlfriend dies in a traffic accident involving the school bus they are on.

"1 Mile to You" tells a story of personal growth through pain and hardship. Kevin is the star athlete but he seems to be throwing his talents away. Through the support of the new school, his mother and his new love interest, he stands up again and has a new goal to aim for. The ending is rather unexpected, but this twist quickly changes by another event that makes the film much happier. It is a quite a good film.

This is a really good film. Strong narrative, decent acting performances, likable and relatable characters, and decent production quality. 1 Mile to You joins a large number of films that combine a teen romance theme with a heartbreaking story, and this movie is one of the better examples despite its generally simpler narrative. If you're looking for something light and heartwarming, this film is an ideal choice for you.

What a great movie! brought me to tears. Kevin's painful journey is one that anyone can relate to. Its about overcoming the death of your beloved ones and keep rowing the boat. or running with your heart...:-) Billy Crudup's performance is outstanding. Its a tender movie that will also make you laugh. Highly recommend!

Boring and cheesy, but it's watchable I suppose.....

While the acting, score and filming are all polished and solid, this is a difficult movie to watch if you have read Jeremy Jackson's excellent novel and/or know anything about running.

The movie tries hard to capture the spirit and inner turmoil of Kevin. However the running scenes are laughable and most of the original story-line/characters of the novel are either altered or left out completely.

Those who haven't read the book or see running as merely recreational will probably find enough positives to embrace the film. If you're in love with the book, take a pass on this rendition.
