There are lots of movies I remember watching either as a kid or as i've grown up and thought wow they were amazing films, and occasionaly I go back and think... wow that film sucks. Like the film "Labrynth" I watched it as a kid and loved it, now I have to say it's one of my all time most hated films ever.
When I was a little kid we had a sand box. It was a quicksand box. I was an only child... eventually.

Ah... Simon Birch.  I read the novel the movie is based on (called "A Prayer For Owen Meany"), and I have to say that I liked the novel much better.  It also happened to be somewhat graphic.
I can't believe somebody read the book and thought "hey, this would make a perfect family film!"

Blackthorne

Family Movies=Cheap to Make= $$$


Hollywood's a business, kids.  Don't let artistic romanticism fool you into thinking otherwise.


Simon Birch is the kind of movie that doesn't subtly touch the soul - it reaches through your freakin' chest plate, grabs your heart by the ventricles, and squeezes until you cry.

I rememeber watching it at my friends house. Everyone else had seen the movie, but I was watching it downstairs with a friend before the rental was due back. 

Spoiler alert below.

This girl comes down the stairs near the end and says "Did he die yet?". Not only disrespectful for the poor kid, but ruined the ending for me.
- Oh great, I'm stuck in colonial times, tentacles are taking over the world, and now the toilets backing up.
- No, I mean it's really STUCK. Like adventure-game stuck.

No! You're all wrong!  It was the movie "Jack" with Robin Williams!

Watch, I just killed this topic...

I agree with DG. I've been touched by many movies, but Simon Birch really werent anything special. :P

Iam sure there is some law that is against touching oneself in movies ...  :D

Anyway do what you must.. ;) I can remember alot of movies that I felt was worth
while and then alot they I wanted to sue the movie company for wasting my time...
Hey can probably do that too! (Only in america)  ;D
