My blind date with life

I saw this movies yesterday and I have to say, I was on the floor laughing. It was so funny, although a rather in a way sad story. But great acting, a tremendous story and just wooow. I just wanted to hug that guy. You could not write a story like that. This was life as it happens. A must see movie for anyone.

Light movie that kept me on the edge of my seat for most of the scenes. It's funny enough to make you laugh to tears and deep enough to make you cry a little more.

As an British born person, it's not every day you see a German or even foreign movie, let alone write a review for one. But after watching this sweet movie I felt compelled to tell the world to watch it. This movie is the story of a half Sri Lankan boy who dreams of working for a five star hotel. His life ambitions are sadly broken when his retina detaches and he becomes partially blind. He can't go to university. After further being rejected for apprenticeships due to his disability, he then sets about getting a job by spoofing that he fully sighted. As with the stories about blind people, the scenario makes for comical effects. But it is matched in equal parts by the heroism of the protagonist, the sadness and poignancy of the situation, the complexity and joy of the human relations in the background. A sweet feel good movie, made so much better by knowing that it's true. We were lucky enough to find this movie on Amazon Prime, I hope with widescale distribution others will enjoy this as much as our family did.

This movie deserve 10 stars amazing movie! the story is awesome

Without being too long and boring I just want to say that I really enjoyed this movie and would absolutely recommend watching it. Absolutely worth reading the subtitles. I stumbled upon it on Amazon by chance and was not sure if I should watch it because of subtitles. I was so glad I did. Mind blowing that it's based on true story! Great movie. Loved it.
