I remember waiting in line at the theatre to see this and saw people leaving the cinema, more than a few in tears. I am not easily moved to gross displays of emotion but I was literally shaking with sadness at some of the scenes in the movie. Michele Pfieffer's confession that "she'll never be enough" left me staring at the floor for about 5 minutes. If ever there was a tear jerker this is it. A decent story, a little unrealistic at the end but the acting was among the best seen in years. Proof that Hollywood can still put out a good/great movie every now and then. 9/10.

This was such a sad movie, I wish I could watch it again, I saw it once with my mom and I think we both cried, I do know we both love it for sure, it definitely tugs at the heart strings.

Sean Penn deserves an award in this movie as well as Dakota Fanning. Michelle Pfeiffer did an excellent job too! The story tells us that exceptional people should have rights on custody like everybody else. It also teaches about great sense of responsibility and ability to love unconditionally. A superb movie!!!

TO BE HONEST, I "hated" Sean Penn's acting IN every MOVIE he ever did, ***BUT**** this is the REASON why ACTORS(even Sean Penn) should GET EMMY'S!!! This was the most authentic, genuine and UNCONDITIONAL love of a heart felt intended movie in years!!! Absolutely the best performance for Sean Penn in movies ever! He made the other actors/actresses fall right into place!! Well done Dakota Fanning! Years of entertainment to come with this little one!! Oh Yeah, have a "Tissue" hand!!

I really liked the movie. I would never have thought about a movie like "I Am Sam" or I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have anyway.

I Am Sam is a touching, outstanding, excellent movie that touched my heart with love. Its sad yet teaches you that there is room for everyone in this world, and you should except everyone for who they are. I loved it, if you havent seen it, you've really missed out. (Sean played his part outstanding and the little girl is an actress that we will be seeing a lot of. She was amazing)

Sean Penn is one of the greatest of all time. He is the sole reason to watch.
