This movie was wonderful. An early intro to Hill Harper who has gone on to star in movies such as The Skulls and hits like CSI:NY. I digress, this movie presents a wonderful journey of one young man to find his roots and honor is mother's dying wishes. In the process, he finds himself and others are forced to take a journey within as well. Add to that the backdrop of the lovely Irish landscape (and a haircut scene that is one of the most tastefully sexy things I've ever seen) and you've got yourself a treat for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

I heard about this movie from a friend about a year ago. Familiar with a few of the actors, (Hill Harper) in the film I was excited to see it. It was not a disappointment! Having Irish ancestry and not knowing much about it I was very curious to see how the film would pan out. It was wonderful how the film focused on the characteristics that connect all of us. The issue of race was minor as this family became acquainted with one another. The scenery of Ireland was breathtaking. It is a yes for family, students and any film buff who enjoys a film that leaves you feeling good about people.

make sure to buy from dealers you've had success with, stay away from the rest. you could get ripped off. we sure did.
