    extremely touching movie
  • August 1, 2009
    Excellent Hallmark moment film about a real life story of a man determined to be a teacher even though he has Tourette's syndrome.

    Excellent acting from James Wolk, a truelly inspiring story but also a joy to watch.

    Best movie I've seen so far. It might be better than Iron Man. Front of the Class is based on a true story and is a very inspiring one about a man with Tourette's Syndrome and how he battled with it. I though James Wolk did a great job portraying Brad Cohen. And two thumbs...( read more) up to Dominic Scott Kay for the same role, only, he played young Brad Cohen.
    The drama married the humor. A perfect combination. I also thought that this movie was like 1990's, but it was only last year. Once again, BEST MOVIE I'VE SEEN SO FAR!

    i thought it was an old movie, actually, its just 2008 one. The Tourlette disease makes me surprise like "is it true" n how much difficulty peple have it gotta face in their life??! this story tell me more about the value of endeavor n believing! i was like the brother of main ch...( read more)aracter, wonder how his bro can live being alienated then he got the answer that can be theory for him in this rough life! James Wolk did amazing work, i dont know how he can act like he has the disease in truth, admire his acting. some another small stories have inspired me to please with my present daily life, like the one of a lil girl suffering the cancer but still smile evryday go to school. at last, her teacher who think he cant be at her funeral cuz of the noise he might make, but with her mother encourage hes in as her most favourite teacher. this is the true story of course with some movie's elements, but its moving for even the toughest persons. i watched this one when im at agony of boring then realize something which help me get off the bed,its effect isnt small, feel like if there was a boundary between u n ambition, then thats obviously ur thought, blame it on u not people who love u n want u to be happy but cant help, wake up, open the eye, be optimistic n embark on action to get ur goal!
