Ok indie Drama
A decent drama of a young freshman on a scholarship who learns a few life lessons about love. A likable cast with a good mix of funny and more serious events make this an interesting film.

""Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell. I actually just started reading it - I'm telling you a good book to read I haven't finished people! Jay Z actually recommended that I read it - it gives you a lot of life lessons. In any business there are certain principles that would work in every walk of life and will help you.""

Typical grumpy old man turning kind is overdone (0 more)
Just as most Disney movies, it has great life lessons. The whole grumpy old man turning kind is a bit overdone, but the overall story was great. The animation, overall, was excellent.

"This story about a group of samurai hired to protect a village of rice farmers from bandits is one of my all-time favorites from Kurosawa. There are so many lessons about life and how we view heroism in this timeless masterpiece."
