This film is honestly one of the most touching movies I've ever seen. I've seen it multiple times already and I never fail to cry buckets everytime I watch it. It just strikes a chord in your heart that moves you so deeply. So, so good.
shareThis movie didn't move me even a centimeter. What was so touching about the last river scene? The old man lived a life of storytelling, so he says "tell me a story". So his son says "well I take you to the river, and all your friends are there". And that's it. Big deal. Totally un-creative. The movie was so over-the-top cheese that I didn't identify at all with the old man. Or with his boring son.

Fair enough.
I would have had more emotion for the old man if he did something besides tell big lies. Anything else. But that's all he did. I was waiting to see it revealed that he was mentally-challenged, in which case I would have had more emotion for him. But he wasn't, was he?
I agree, I consider this his masterpiece.
Damn feels.
all I can say is that this proves you've seen really a few movies.
this stuff is cheap emotional cliché. touching movies are something else.
Yes I agree. Very moving. Not quite as moving as Edward Scissorhands, but almost as.
