"One of my favorite movies until I learned how much an ass Toby McGuire is. "
Rob Paul
"A wonderfully well-made film. Stellar performances all around, particularly Tobey Maguire and especially Michael Caine (I can totally see why he won the Oscar, a respectable choice even if I preferred Tom Cruise in MAGNOLIA). Also strong production values and cinematography as well."

"I used to watch this movie ritually every year when the weather called for snow during the week, hoping for a snow day. For a few years I believed that every time I watched this movie it WOULD snow. And for a while, it did. "

"Of course the book was better. This is actually quite a dark story. But the film is good. I enjoyed it."
