    Cute movie. Could have done without the whole, "Those white kids don't care about you, Akeelah" crap, but I've seen this movie make kids sit on the edge of their seats over a Spelling Bee. Pretty powerful and inspiring in its own way.

    This movie ends up being slightly too predictable...but somehow still ends up being one of the better movies of 2006.

    This was a great movie. And yes, I know I am a geek for liking a movie about academia, but I can't deny my roots.

    A really nice feel-good drama. Curtis was enthralled so hopefully it'll get him keen to improve his spelling too!

    This was a very cute story that I'm sure many children and their parents would enjoy watching together. Its lessons include the usual family film ones: work hard, achieve your dreams, fight with integrity, etc. I wouldn't say it was anything truly spectacular, but it was enjoyabl...( read more)e nonetheless.
