This was an awesome movie. You've got to watch it. My friend let me borrow it and then I quickly went out and bought my own copy from Amazon as a gift for someone, but had to watch it again before I did send it off. I really enjoyed the special faetures also. They're definitely also very much worth the watch! The movie was more than a pleasant surprise!

After Jason's multi-billionaire grandfather caused him an extremely deep pain for which nothing can bring forgiveness, the deceased man hopes to make amends through his inheritance and videotaped commentary.
There's a catch though - in order to receive his inheritance... to receive the "Ultimate Gift..." Jason must perform a series of tasks. To most this sounds reasonable, but to Jason, who has not only never worked a day in his life and has an ego the size of the Milky Way Galaxy, this task is so daunting at every step that he considers quitting on multiple occasions.
The most interesting aspect of this movie is not whether or not Jason
receives his inheritance, the Ultimate Gift, but rather whether or not we as the viewers receive our own metaphorical inheritance from this movie.
This is the task we are challenged with, but only in understanding and
becoming Jason can we understand the Ultimate Gift.

This movie starts out slow and turns into a classic tearjerker.
Billionaire Red Stevens (James Garner) dies. He leaves his fractious family bits and pieces of his empire. But his grandson Jason (Drew Fuller) is singled out for special attentions. Through a series of videos recorded before he died with the help of his wise old lawyer (superbly played by Bill Cobb), the dead Red Stevens sends Jason off on a series of tasks in order to merit what grandpa calls "the ultimate gift".
Of course, Jason hates the deceased grandfather. In fact, everyone in the family hates everyone else to one degree or another.
Jason starts off as a selfish, self-centered jerk, but you just know that grandpa will change him as a man and bring to understand the grandfather he hated and shunned.
It takes litte Emily (fetching played by Abigail Breslin, a real sweetheart) and her single mom Alexia (Ali Hillis) to help the real Jason ultimtely shine through.
Brian Denehy plays a small role and it was nice to see him onscreen again.
Jason goes through some adventures on his way to manhood, all of which are contrived, but that's just the nature of things.
Overall, the film ends up being a real tearjerker in spite of its weak, forumlaic opening. Gratifying in is own way and well worth the watching when you feel like seeing an upbeat film about the potentials of humanity.

Definitely, one of the best movies in 2007. Great story, great acting (specially the little girl), great teaching.
If you haven't seen it or read the book, you should put aside a slot in your agenda to experience this story. It could easily change your life and the way you look at it.
