I rented this movie but after watching it i went out and bought it.
Then I bought 30 copies and started sending them to friends and family.

This is an easy film to watch. The cast is beautiful, and the characters they portray are believeable. There are not a lot of characters, so it is easy to keep track of the plot without getting lost. The story is very linear and follows a very logical progression.
The story itself is OK, if not exactly great. It is one of those idealistic stories that really makes you think about yourself and what you find important, but the primary plot is not something that would take place in the real world. It is an emotional movie, and should bring watery eyes to anybody watching it. Guys, gals, and older children should all enjoy this movie -- it did not appear targeted to any specific demographic, and had nothing in it which I considered objectionable.
At nearly two hours long, there are some things that were included in this film that could have been eliminated or shortened. The bench sequences never seemed to have complete closure -- so why include it? The "gift of work" sequence -- especially the post-hole digging -- was entirely too long. And although I have not read the book, and it is probably part of the original story, the whole "prisoner" sequence is completely out of place and totally unbelieveable -- a point at which I believe this film "jumps the shark".
Overall, this is a touching story and worth the time, if you ignore a major bump in the middle of the story.

Get out the tissues, this one will certainly touch your heart.
A very wealthy patriarch (James Garner) has died and the family is waiting, eagerly to see what they are "going to get". Everyone gets something, but, of course, their greed and egos think they should have received more. Enter the grandson, Jason (Drew Fuller)... very rich and very spoiled, having lived off his trust fund all his life and with a huge "chip on his shoulder". The grandfather leaves a video directed to Jason and gives him certain tasks, he calls "gifts", that he must complete to "earn" his inheritance.
Jason endures degrading situations that soon topple his "ivory tower". He is angry and fights every hardship every step of the way. He wants to know "why me?" When Brian Dennehy and Abigail Breslin enter the picture, he begins to see people and the world through different eyes and begins to understand what his grandfather is trying to teach him. Will Jason succeed and learn from the lessons? They are lessons we can all learn from in our life journey.
In watching this movie, I thought how young people, from all walks of life, could learn from this story. It teaches "Life is how you live it...not how you spend it."

I've always loved James Garner. I loved the message and I loved little Miss Breslin.

This movie has a hidden message for all who watch. Very heartwarming.
I highly recommend the whole family to watch together.
