Pay It Forward(2000)

I found the movie worth to watch. It can motivate people into trying to be better for their "neighbor", so to speak. Even though the scenario is not so complex, the idea very interesting. It puts the lens into a boy's life who gets an assigment at school that supposes changing the world for the better. He has an idea, and he thinks(being a child and not knowing how the world is) that it will work if put in practice. But things are not that simple.
Much I won't say not to spoil the movie.

Enjoy!
 
Hi edgitarra, thanks for suggesting this movie. I watched it some time back, and thought it was a great concept. I just didn't like the ending (and I won't say much more for those that haven't seen it). Personally, I think the message of paying it forward could have been brought home more, had the ending been different. Very thought provoking though, for sure.
 
Watched this a few days ago after seeing it when it first came out in 2000 and it is still an excellent movie.

Hayley Joel Osmet, Kevin Spacey and Helen Hunt make a good cast and the story is a real tear jerker for me! A yucky ending but the message is powerful and thought provoking and inspiring about paying favours forward to people and it must be something that they cant do on their own.

Reccomended. :)
