This is so much more than a BMX movie, it is inspiring and makes you think about life, it has many great messages, amazing actors with not only tear jerker but some exciting moments. I had such a great time watching it, thank you for making this movie. John Buultjens is a fantastic human!
Found this movie on Amazon Prime, remembered seeing the trailer a while back and figured I'd give a chance. Glad I did! It's was good, I enjoyed it a lot, it had moments where I laughed, smiled, and even got emotional. It's a good movie to watch atleast once. I recommend it if you haven't come across it yet.
Enjoyed it a lot, interesting to see John's story & I was impressed by Ludacris - it probably could of benefitted a lot from a bit more budget but they worked well with what they had to still provide some good BMX action

You think changing his adoptive mom to a black woman would make a realistic story, even though, it's a true story & his adoptive mom was white - some people...

It's been awhile since I've watched a film that touched me the way this has. The actors are brilliant and the storyline is gripping. I give it a 10/10! It's a must watch.
Really good movie!! Loved the story, the actors and
that it's based on a true story about over coming
lifes tragic moments w/a foster family that truly was in it to help the child!!
And the BMX just added to the story!!
Great story that needed told!!!
