Wordiezett So much average
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
sharondsouza-79536 There our people who crib about how their life is a big waste & how ending it would be much better. . This movie essentially shows these suicidal people that being alive is a big blessing & if you have that blessing, celebrate it & touch as many lives as possible. . Nationality, religion, or any other barriers are just excuses you choose to make. . Rocky Brat is indeed an inspiration. Also watching the movie, you are sure to find some beautiful shots & a glimpse of rural south India.The narrative style beautifully captures the emotions of love, sacrifice,pain,victory. Would love to see an extended documentary on Rocky Anna life after his marriage & the kind of work that he's doing.
josianel84 This has to be my favorite non-fiction film this year. The first scene is so overwhelming. I sat on the edge of my seat the whole time... It made me cry, and laugh. Exceptional, simple, raw beauty is in this film. Rocky's unconditional love for the kids, acceptance, thoughts on disease and death and personal introspection really moved me. The scene with Suriya, where he is hospitalized troubled me so. And I am a nurse, so I've seen a lot, but this little boy...omygosh..AIDS is hell on earth...The pain he has been through is unbelievable. His ultimate choice at the end really made the movie unforgettable. wow, kudos Rocky you really are a hero
James H The most moving Documentary I have ever seen. The editing was great. It was like we were there with them. I was moved by the day to day struggles, and hungered for the little victories. Some parts were difficult to watch. You will want to bring tissue paper for this one. There really are no films or documentaries that are similar, but Rocky's Journey does remind me of the Journey that Mother Teresa took. His life is a brilliant example of what love is. Well done. I was frustrated for driving over 30 miles to go see it. Having seen it, I would gladly drive 300. I look forward to hearing more about the hostel and opportunities to make a difference.
cassandrakirby3 It is excellent film. I believe with all of my heart that it is a must see film. Steve Hoover made this film about his best friend Rocky Braat, because he was impacted and felt this story needed to be told to others. I agree with Steve and I am grateful his was able to tell it. Rocky gave up everything he had here in the states and moved to India, to take care of orphaned children with HIV/Aids. I know Rocky and Steve, they are being totally real. I feel that this is very inspiring and leaves me wondering what could I do to make a difference in someone's life, like Rocky is making. It is about giving unconditional love to others without expecting something in return. It is about the challenges that life can bring and how one might react to those challenges. This story is ongoing and updates are posted to Youtube.
