Either way; this was one of the worst movies I've seen in 2017.
Why do you say that?
Because anything with Owen Wilson just makes me think of the time he failed at suicide, and even though he's just playing a part; it's hard for me to believe in how he works hard to motivate the kid in the movie when he couldn't motivate himself to live in real life. Also generally I'm not a fan of Julia Roberts, but I have to admit she didn't do a bad job in this movie. And the kid? It's like this whole theme of the movie reminds me of "The Elephant Man" (1980.)
I did find that kind of a strange one and almost not specific enough to make it easy for a group of kids to uniformly interpret. It was almost as if it was encouraging falsehoods. Where I come from the equivalent (which I think is far superior) is "if you don't have something good to say, don't say it". Or you can go with Bill & Ted's " be excellent to each other".
Both fit the bill without undermining the importance of honesty and integrity, surely two of the top 5 values to try and instil in any child?
