Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

xanderdeafman When I seen this back in the 80s, I didn't understand what the story's about, all I could was get the gist: a boy who's mute, and can fly, despite what I termed bullies who wants to lock him up for his refusal to join society. But then, today I found the movie online and found the English Subtitle and finally downloaded it, and watched it.Damn, it's the best movie I ever seen in years when I finally understand what it's all about! It's so good! I laugh at the funny parts, felt sad at the sad parts, I felt everything with the emotional tone of the movie, it's that good!I'm grateful to catch up on yet another movie with a working English Subtitle that someone generously contributed to us deafs' understanding. Whoever you are, thanks, mate!And I loved the ability to fly, we all can, for our wonderful human imagination gives us the ability to fly, no matter what circumstances, no matter what obstacles is placed in our path, our wonderful human imagination gives us the ability to THINK beyond what you'd logically call "It can't be done!", "It's impossible!", "You're dreaming!" Well, it's already done. If you can think, then it's happening already, manifesting out into reality!After all, our world is proof of this, nothing in this world was built WITHOUT human imagination being the first prime mover! Thus, believe and have faith, for all things is possible to the God, which is our human Imagination!Thanks for the movie, I am grateful for this wonderful movie. Now I and my fiancée enjoys the movie very much. Cheers!

Michael Loeck I'm really surprised I didn't see more comments on this movie. I remember watching this movie when I was, I think 13 or 14. I never quite understood the complexities of emotion that were put into this movie. But I had always remembered it from my younger years. I decided to pick up the DVD when it came out again. Now that I'm older, and actually work with cut scenes as an animator for a living. I now see everything that I missed. I am by all means not an emotional person or cry a lot etc, but I have at least watched this film more then 15 times in the last year. No other movie has ever brought me to tears every time I watch it. Not tears of sadness or being upset , but tears of happiness. There are so many moments in this picture that can overwhelm you with that gut feeling of real love. You really let these characters take your heart and go with it. That is what a true movie is a about , is the ability to let you heart go and pull in that emotion from them and try to imagine feeling what they feel. I don't think any other movie has captured my heart that way. I might seem all soft and sound like a push over but I'm about as manly as you can get. If you have the time to see this movie or buy it. You truly will receive a much broader look at life , love , fear , relationships and most of all believing in yourself and who you are. I didn't want reveal any of the movie but it really has touched me. Michael Loeck Character animator http://www.immortal3d.com

sixtwentysix A classic 80's film that nears cheesy pap but still avoids and retains heart through excellent pacing, dialog and acting. It might not hold up as well as when I first saw it because the family film concept had not yet been run into the ground yet for me. Fred Savage does a good job in an interesting subplot that involves a bully and funerals for GI JOE soldiers. Fond memories of his confrontation with the neighborhood bullies still color my memory of this film.A fun warm family fantasy that seems to be in short supply as of late due to it being nearly impossible to make something realistic because of the amount of film cliche in the modern world. Still, the film is very watchable and fun. 7/10

Mike This is one of the movies I think of when I think of my childhood, you could not make a film like this nowdays. The performances are so authentic, and genuine, it makes for a remarkable experience. Wow, I'm in awe of its beliefs. Imagine if you had the ability to fly......
