Trevor Johnston
Odd indeed.
Amanda Mae Meyncke
The film is schmaltzy and very saccharine, so sweet it'll give you a toothache.
Ben Sachs
It's hard to believe that Hedges once wrote some decent light fiction (What's Eating Gilbert Grape, An Ocean in Iowa) before he started making greeting-card movies like Dan in Real Life and this one.
Richard Roeper
"There comes a point where "Odd Life of Timothy Green" is just too sentimental and too odd."
Rene Rodriguez
A fable about parenting and its accompanying joys and sorrows, done in the trademark Walt Disney style of pleasant, feel-good entertainment that doesn't leave much of an emotional trace.
Randy Bodziak
Amazing movie! Extremely touching, genuinely funny, great story/moral, entertaining, awesome acting. Not a single complaint can be made.

This One Doesn't Disappoint I totally liked this movie! It is a feel good movie. If you watch the trailer(s) you get a feel for what this going to be and it doesn't disappoint. It is predictable and sugary sweet and that is OK! I smiled throughout the movie. This was a good time on a cold, gray December Saturday snuggled up on the couch with my wife.
Why? My real names Natalie I'm 11 and don't know you people love this movie so much its basicly about a couple who can't have kids so they plant a box in the garden with paper that said what they wanted their child to be like and then a muddy boy comes and he has leaves on his ankles and he meets this girl and they become friends and I guess they had crushs on each other and at one point timothy's grandfather dies and in the end all of his leaves fall off and he leaves and they cry its not great its weird

High school coach Jim Morris (Dennis Quaid) thought his dream was over. He'd had his shot playing baseball, blew out his shoulder, and retired without ever reaching the big leagues.

The team went from worst to first, and Jim was soon on the road to becoming the oldest rookie in the major leagues!
