Its nothing new or ground breaking, but I had a great time watching this feel good drama. Justin Timberlake is really good here and I loved watching his relationship evolve as the film progressed with Ryder Allen who honestly kind of stole the movie IMO. Very cute and likable kid and this movie really does work whenever those two have scenes together since they are pretty much the heart of it. Alisha Wainwright and Juno Temple put in some solid work too.

Agree with Dil here its does not bring anything new but its a feel good drama that's executed right. The relationship between Justin Timberlake and Ryder Allen evolves organically and the story takes its time to set it up and that elevates the movie specially for the end payoff. Timberlake is great here but its Ryder Allen who steals the show. The females that appear in two different halves June Squibb and Juno Temple both impress but I felt Alisha Wainwright's character was very generic and didn't add much to the story. The ending is also good and heartfelt.

B+
