    Is a great movie. Amazing cast, tear-jerking scenes, feel good moments, it really has it all considering that the movie is about a spelling bee. I would highly recommend this movie.

    Damn, stupid roomates leaving their accounts logged on, that is actually me in the OP.

    The spelling bee is basically just the plot-theme. It's truly a fantastic movie, whoever wrote it is pretty much an all around bad-ass.

    You've never been so wrong giga, this is definately the best movie I've seen in a long time. I was extremely hesitant to watch it, but the movie couldn't have been done any better. It's pretty much flawless IMHO.
