    Very Cute and Funny

    I was a little nervous about taking my seven year old, but it was quite appropriate for children, a couple of sad parts, but my daughter liked it and I found it very enjoyable. The little boy is irresistably cute and the parents are very funny and hard no to like.

    Fun Family Film

    by

    Was not expecting much after seeing poor reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, but really enjoyed this movie, as did the rest of the family. Found it sweet and moving, and made me wish Summer was not coming to an end. Great one to see with the kids

    GREAT MOVIE

    Really enjoyed this movie...a "FEEL GOOD" movie!! Hope was brought into what seemed like a hopeless situation. It's amazing what can happen when we allow ourselves to be open and welcome in the "unexplained" things that come our way and into our lives. Would definitely recommend this movie to others.

    Parents take your tissues

    This is a wonderful movie about being a parent and a kid. This movie will remind you of why we have children and work so hard to be parents. The action is fun and it kept all of us engaged the entire time. Our kids thought the ending was lame but I could have sat and cried for 10 minutes after the movie ended. Thank goodness for sunglasses when we walked out. ...oh, and have your tissues ready. :)

    Matches the title

    Overall I thought it was a great movie. It was strange but it was still a great movie. The reason why I didn't put it as a "Must Go!" was because it had a somewhat sad ending and I, personally, don't really like sad endings much. It was very cute and had some tearful parts. I loved it although I'll have to say that it wasn't my favorite. I would say that its a fine movie for all ages.

    Sweet movie

    by

    Mu husband and I liked the movie. It a sweet movie with moving parts. I like that there was no bad language and still the characters could get emotional. This would be a good movie to share with your kids and then talk about sharing yourself with others.

    Outstanding Movie!

    Wonderful story - Superb acting! Didn't want it to end! Great story for those who pull for the underdogs. You won't be disapointed in the characters and learn what is really important in life!

    Good but kind of sad...

    by Adel916

    So I was kind of expecting this to be more of a kids movie but really, as an adult I thought it was quite sad. I don't think my niece did so that's good, but to get so attached to this precious kid and then to have him be gone the next was, well sad to me. I love that everyone learned from him, but then again it would have been great for him to have been able to stay with the parents. Overall a good movie though. Great casting as well.

    Feel-good movie

    I really enjoyed this movie and so did the 1 9 year old and 4 11 year olds that we brought with us. It will make you cry. NOt the best movie I have seen but it is definitely worth having a night out. It tugs at your heart strings.

    best movie i ever saw..perfect

    by



    Maybe I'm a little more emotional than normal cause my son is in Afghanistan but maybe thats a positive thing...I just saw the best movie of my life and not because it kept me entertained but because of the thinking it has caused me to do..I thought Marley and Me was genius because anyone who ever had a pet could relate...Timothy Green was like that about the children..If you allow it to be more than a movie and see the parrallels in your own life...I cried like 5 times and I hope i never lose this feeling of appreciating the time I have with my kids...

    Missed a few opportunities

    by mexusmx

    The premise I thought was interesting and I was ready for it to be chock full of sentimentality. The main characters were likable enough but they lacked depth and complexity that would have forced the audience to ask some of the harder questions about acceptance and respect.

    Timothy Green is adorable

    Seeing this was a choice made by my daughters. They are not little kids, but stil young. It looked like a good middle of the road movie. My son was a little doubtful, being slightly older.
    However, I would definitely recommend it. It is a movie suitable for any age audience, and the boy who played the title role was delightful! It is so sweet and heart warming and heart string pulling that I wouldn't have missed it!

    Ok Movie - Life of Timothy Green

    Kids liked it. I thought it was ok. Didn't know what to expect. This movie is like the old "Sunday night Disney Movie" from when I was a kid. No need to pay 12 / ticket to see this.
