MY REVIEW
I love Gerard Butler, he's a great actor and not too bad on the eyes either, lol. This movie had me in tears and inspired me in so many ways. I loved it. The fact that it's based off of a true story is even more amazing and makes you want to do more in so many ways to help others out there that are in need. His performance was one of the best I've seen him in yet and by far one of my favorite characters I've seen him play.
To know that someone can turn their life around and do a complete 360 and for the good of others just filled my heart with joy. If you haven't seen this movie yet I highly recommend it, this is one you won't be disappointed in.
