I Can Only Imagine
10-year-old Bart Millard lives with his mother and abusive father Arthur in Texas. One day his mother drops him off at a Christian camp where he meets Shannon. Upon his return from camp, Bart finds his mother has left and movers are removing her belongings. He angrily confronts his father, who denies that his abusiveness was the reason she left. Years later, in high school, Bart and Shannon are dating. Bart plays football to please his father but is injured, breaking both ankles and ending his career. The only elective with openings is music class, so he reluctantly signs up.

Fresh and Exciting
Excellent adaptation.
It's worth your time. It was a great story, characters that you care for, scenes that will make you laugh and others that will bring the tears. Its the kind of movie that makes you reflect on life and carries with it some important lessons.Highly recommended!
This was such a big disappointment when i watched the trailer i thought it could be interesting but the result was a christian tv channel film very bad script full of cliches and almost every scene you see a bible around the corner on a table on a bed etc.
My annoyance of this film to me is the opening section of the main character as a kid. The child gives a cringe worthy performance especially during scenes with the dad. He doesn't show any sense of emotion in these scenes and just seems bored. Most of the performances are pretty TV movie like. I also found a lot of editing problems with this movie. One part in particular was edited very fast and just looked sloppy. The cinematography was pretty weak also. The feew things I did like about this movie was Dennis Quaid's performance and the chemistry between him and the son near the end of the film.
Love this movie. Great actors and shows how life can be true.
