I was moved two blocks.
Full of good messages... and bad language. A moving film, too. Will teach kids about the hardships of actually being retarded. One use of f--k and multiple uses of god---n. For those who are dating, this is an absolute date movie.

Awesome movie. Language may be too mature for kids
This movie brought me to tears. Sean Penn is such a great actor; everyone in that movie did a wonderful job.

Commonsensemedia FAILS!
I can't believe how common sense media missed the consumerism!
Product placement is everywhere! They talk about how iHop is the best, He buys "Huggies" diapers (Que zoom in on label), He works at STARBUCKS, (Zooms in on every starbucks logo in the store, talk about how everything in starbucks is a good tasty choice) I've only seen a small bit of this movie so far, but the consumerism is DEFINITELY noticeable! The reviewers really messed up on this one!

great movie!! :)
so i personally think this movie is FANTASTIC, although i'm not to crazy about the language, it's still a great movie, and if you can look past that then well that's good. also it is very emotional so b/c of the language and the fact that it's emotional, i wouldn't recommend watching it with younger kids.

i am sam is an obvious, but lovely film.
i am sam is certainly a good film. The movie showcases Sean Penn and Michelle Pfeiffer at the top of their games. Dakota Fanning also gives a warm performance. Although dramatically obvious and full of cliche', it will still tug those tears right out of your eyes. Note to parents: A fine film, but there is plenty of curses here, plus Sam's disability may be too intense for younger kids to handle. Even some teens might not be able to handle it.

Extremely good movie
Sean Penn gives THE BEST male performance besides Eastwood in Gran Torino I've ever seen, and the plot is absolutely magical and works well with each actor's talents.
