This movie, I am Sam is brilliant. It receives a highly recommended watching rating from both Ann and I. In fact, this is one I would add to the list of worth buying to keep in your personal movie collection. Ann asked me to watch this film and I am thankful that I did. The performances were excellent and the story was well written. I was blown away by Dakota Fanning. Her performance is up there with her performance in Man on Fire, another movie I thoroughly enjoyed with Denzel Washington. We both loved the soundtrack too, so take a listen to our podcast to hear some of the tunes of I am Sam.
