Excellent film, Penn should get an Academy Award!

User review rating: 0 March 14, 2002

The most compelling story of a mentally challenged person and his difficulties.

User review rating: 0 March 12, 2002

I thought that Sean Penn`s performance was amazing and that little girl will take your breath away. It was one of the best movies I`ve ever seen. It`ll make you laugh; it`ll make you cry and it`ll make you think about how you treat other people. Good job.

A very emotional film. Penn definately deserves an academy award for his performance.

I have worked with developmentally disabled adults for 12 years....I think Sean Penn did an excellent portrayal of this character! It was a very emotional and touching movie....truly believable...worthy of an Oscar!

This was without a doubt the most horrifyingly terrible thing I have ever seen. It was manipulative (although it was a failure at this) and an insult to my intellegence. It is and insult to my five year old brothers intellegence. What`s worse it appropriates beloved Beatles songs and filthies them.

my boyfriend and I went to see this movie and he told me that he never cries at the theatre. I caught him with a tear down his cheek....and he was balling. and his face was all red....it was funny! It was a GREAT MOVIE!! UWO !!!

My dad is a projectionist, and throughout my entire life, i`ve probably seen more movies than the average person... I AM SAM was the absolute best movie that I have ever seen! I`ve never seen a movie that was not only so well directed, but had incredible actors/actresses. I`ve never seen a movie that has made me cry as much as I AM SAM... it not only touched my heart, but my soul :) I hope everyone takes the time to see this movie.

I thought it was the best movie I have seen in a long time. It was a real tear-jerker! I loved it! I will definitly see it again, and I am planning on buying it as soon as it comes out on video.

I took my mother to see this Flick - she`s in her mid 70`s and she loved it. This was the second time I`d seen this film and it was as enjoyable as the first time. The remake of the Bealtes tones is great. Bought the CD last night. Highly recommend this film.

i enjoyed the story, but i was delighted by the cinematography and the way the film fit the score. as great as the beatles` originals are, the cover versions in my mind fit the time of the film, giving the songs a new flavour and the film an added dynamic. the handheld camera shots were fantastic and could not have been filmed in any other way.

If you want to see a terrible movie, don`t see this. One of the best of the year.

I am Sam was a waste of time, it really was very boring. The only good thing about it was the popcorn that I ate in the theatre.

Dakota Fanning is just soooo adorable. For a seven year old she is a really good actress. I really think that she should do more films because she did a great job in this one.

Bling Bling - this is a great movie... it`s going to be a hard decision between Russell and Sean for the Oscar. But you never know... somebody else just might win it.

User review rating: 0 February 17, 2002

This was a bad movie. There are no others words to describe it.

It was allright in the beginning. but then went slowly downhill. Good acting, especially Sean Penn. He should win the Oscar

User review rating: 0 February 15, 2002

A touching story. Delightful acting.

User review rating: 0 February 15, 2002

this movies was one of the worst movies ever!

User review rating: 0 February 15, 2002

this movie sucked!!!!

User review rating: 0 February 14, 2002

Well guess what? My own brother suffers from autism and I thought Sean`s portrayal was brilliant and worthy of an Oscar nomination and YES an OSCAR. Just because your brother has suffered from the illness portrayed by Russell, doesn`t mean Russell deserves the Oscar and not Sean. That`s silly. Actually, one can say they both deserve based on their....surprise! Acting skills, not because one of them portrays what our brothers are suffering from. You may know schizophrenia but I know autism. Let`s just agree to disagree.

User review rating: 0 February 11, 2002

it emotionally heart warming. a great insight into the world of mental disabilities and to not judge someone based on their ability but the capability of love.

User review rating: 0 February 10, 2002

It was okay; wasn`t crazy about it but wife loved it. worth 3 or 4 stars. Penn kept on reminding me of Dustin Hoffman in Rainman. lol

User review rating: 0 February 10, 2002

Totally amazing movie... it made both me and my boyfriend cry. We were overwhelmed.

User review rating: 0 February 10, 2002

I saw the movie I am Sam on Saturday night, Februuary 9, 2002. The movie was very good and extremely well done. As good as all the actors/actresses were, Sean Penn stood out as "extremely good". Congratulations all around to all. A well done movie. For lack of a better word, I would have only one disappointment with the movie. At the end of the credits, I did not see any organizations listed,as having provided the help/information needed to make the movie and Sean Penn, in particular, do such a well done job. Why? Keep up the great job.
