This movie was great! Everyone needs to see it. I wish it were playing at more theaters. Bring tissues, as it will bring on the tears. The actors do a wonderful job of being human, and showing what can happen in life. We need more movies like this. I cannot believe that every theater is not playing this one. It just has not had enough publicity, or it would be selling lots of tickets. Just because it does not have sex, and violence in it, is no reason not to carry it in theaters. I urge everyone of you to see it, before it's gone. The story of a washed up baseball player, and his friendship with "Produce" is amazing. It just shows you what a good young man with Down Syndrome is capable of.

I loved this movie start to finish. It makes you take a step back and think about all the things in life that can be taken for granted, and I loved Produce, he made me smile throughout the movie :)

I came across after an unexpected glance at its inspiring title, and a good looking poster. But it is just a hit and miss. First, I wanted to clear the view whether it was a religious related subject or simply an inspiring movie. The answer is merely yes to the second one. Because it was a brilliant platform that failed desperately with all the usual clichés. For the normal people, it might be an uplifting flick. But for the movie fanatics, it is one of those attempts from their watch that terribly fallen short. No doubt, it is a good theme, a little boring as well to see the same old formula with the new cast. In the end it did not work for me. The way it handled to solve the personal and social issues that depicted in the film characters is not persuasive. The twist at the end was the dumbest one. I can't understand why a movie like this need one. Those are for the smartest scripts and this one should have focused more on the friendship and father-daughter relationship rather trying to imitate the commercial films. Though the actor did well, and the production design was way better than many mainstream films from the recent time. Definitely a go for it, but what do you expect from it will decide how much you're going to like it. 6/10

Well meaning, but not completely satisfying "faith" film about the unlikely friendship between a struggling former major league baseball player and a young man with Down Syndrome. Faith message is actually rather subtle and tastefully done compared to many other films of the genre, and with a PG-13 rating it doesn't shy away from some heavy subjects (alcoholism, prejudice, teen sex and rape). It also features a pair of fine performances from the two leads, Kristoffer Polaha and newcomer David DeSanctis, who have great chemistry together. Where Hope Grows is probably not going to win many converts, but even non Christians will likely enjoy it on the level of an after school special.

Great movie. Enjoyed this one from opening to close. Had to laugh at some of the silly liberal agenda stuff like "Down syndrome is not a form of mental retardation". Hahaha. Liberals. Overall a great movie though. The actors worked well together. Good plot moved along nicely by the director. Good messages on dependency and handicapped -- how we all deal with different demons. How we are all projecting a different person to the world than we are inside. The father/daughter tension is great and realistic. The addiction message is on-point. THere are a few cuss words, but otherwise, a good movie for the whole family We enjoyed it. RENT THIS

Let me just start out by saying that I think this movie is pretty good, I was expecting more since, really, there aren't too many movies that revolve around people with down syndrome, but this was quite nice. I like the story, its nice and harmless. I do wish that they'd put more emphasis on Produce (the young man with down syndrome) and how he lives on a regular basis, during most of the movie he is at work, but its not really about produce as much as it is about the ex-pro baseball player. There are some scenes that feel a little rushed emotionally but the intention is there. But, lets not forget that this is a Christian movie, but how does it fare Christian-wise? Well, it just touches on the subject and it doesn't really get all that preachy so I think that's a plus. All in all its a pretty good film with a nice message and a good ending, (you'll see what I mean). I think its worth a check out for anybody who is interested, its only a 15$ movie and well worth it. 7/10.

We thoroughly enjoyed this movie. We have gone to other films similar to this one and have found them to be really good. There were some points early in the film that we felt they spent too much time with. We think they could spent more time elsewhere and not so much on the drinking aspect. Although the drink was a part of the character, there could have been other areas covered. We aren't writers, but we do know what entertains us and we also know what kind of message these sort of films are trying to send. Instead of the drinking, maybe they could have said something about what happened to the mother. Also they could have given us more information about Produces mom. For us the film was really good and once it comes out in DVD most likely will be purchasing it.
