A pleasant, and sometimes wonderful message not often seen in movies today. It was humorous and entertaining all the way through. Some of the story was a bit rushed, and not all things very well explained, but still, you got the idea. The message is the most vital part of this film...and it's something we can all relate to, in one way or another. Young adults should watch this film.

Many girls have recommended this movie for me. The film is not a bad idea. But I dont like things moralists melodramatic. Is not totally bad, but the idea could have been better executed.

Impressively bad. My financial lit teacher made me sit through this in class for some reason. What does this movie have to do with financial lit?

An enormously well-crafted and professional movie that deserves a wide audience, especially among kids 12 to 18.

this film with another half hour would be perfect, the soundtrack and idea script was amazing, but i felt there should have been a greater emotional connection created between jason and his new friends, but wow i thought the russian similiar film was great but with this premise it shows another idea

An American fairytale about a billionaire who leaves his money to his grandson, but only if he can complete some challenges designed to make him a better person. Good grief this plot was corny and cheesy. The girl dying from leukemia was a great character, played well by Abigail Breslin. Drew Fuller convincingly played the spoiled trust fund rich kid. It was worth watching but ultimately not very memorable or noteworthy.
