Worst movie ever, can i give one star?
This was the unofficial movie of Owen Meany, one of the best books i have ever read. This movie was a severe disappointment. If i had not paid good money to see it in the theater, i would have walked out. Just read the book, cause this movie is not worth the time.

Tugs at your heartstrings and tickles your funnybone
Simon Burch is a delightful film about love, loss, and the power of faith. It's irreverent, funny, touching, and surprising. Well worth including in a film library to be watched again and again.

excellent condition
I bought this for a friend because they have a child with a similar condition as Simon also a dwarf with hearing aids but other problems as well they enjoy watching this film in spite of the tears

Highly Recommended!!
Very interesting story. The movie captures ones attention right from the start and doesn't let go until the end. It has the deeper meaning behind it, which allows one to continue to ponder the meaning long after the completion of the movie. Highly recommended!

big courage comes in a small package
Here a first friendship has a real impact on the life of a boy, Joe.
Simon is a boy who is born small and thought not to live long.
The events of this movie are about the "bastard" Joe, his best friend
the freakishly small Simon and finding out who his father is.
Along thew way two very important people in his life die:
one by accident and the other from an courageous act.
Simon raises the problem of "purpose" and God's plan for us all.
For the religious this may be a very inspiring film, but it just might gives some young people the wrong ideas
about how it is all right to act
and question authority. The film is funny and very heart warming,
and overall, well acted.
