An absolute waste of money

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

From only seeing one episode of this show, it is about a family of five trying to find a place where one of the kids, JJ, is accepted with his disability. In this particular episode, I really noticed how much the family was affected from constantly moving around and how they are treated because they have a family member with a disability. From moving around, the children lose all their friends they previously made at their old school. Also, they get picked on in school for having a brother who is in a wheelchair. Additionally, the mother, who is very passionate about people with disabilities, often times loses her temper, which results in people thinking she is crazy. The family moves to a new school so that JJ could get a full time aid, which he does, but the school does not have a ramp in the front of the school. However, an unexpected aid comes to the rescue to be with JJ all the time towards the end of the episode which was beneficial both mentally and emotionally for JJ. I would strongly recommend this show to others as it is very funny to watch, but also has a serious side that speaks positively about disabilities.

I love Speechless the only show I look forward to every week! Best show on TV! Must see for everyone! I love the episode where they go on a road trip hilarious when Ray (Mason Cook) plans behind their backs and Dylan (Kyla Kenedy) says "I am my curly haired mother's daughter"! This show literally makes me laugh out loud!

This show makes me literally laugh out loud. Love the guy who plays JJ's voice, Kenneth-great acting and perfect comedic timing. The comedy is not over the top and I feel the writers must have the same sense of humor as I do. Watched the episode today where the dad and Kenneth are trying to find something they have in common and it was my favorite so far.

When first hearing that the show was about the family of a boy with cerebral palsy, the automatic response is to expect the mood of the show to be sad and/or heartbreaking. However, I found the upbeat and partly comical mood of the show to be a refreshing outlook on disability. It starts out with a seemingly "normal" family driving to get half priced breakfast before their coupon expires. When they arrive at their destination, they park in a handicapped spot without any indication on their vehicle of the necessity for use of the spot. Immediately, an older woman makes a comment about how it is unfair they use the spot, and complains about the problems she has with walking. Rather than speaking a response, the family instead opens the back door of the car, lowers the ramp, and lowers down the wheelchair of their son JJ who has cerebral palsy (immediately shutting up the older woman). This beginning scene then sets the context in which disability will be portrayed throughout the remainder of the show- light heatedly with a twinge of comic relief on a topic that makes so many people uncomfortable. Throughout the rest of the episode, the characters in the show portray the actual normalcy of disability, and how, even though it makes so many people uncomfortable (i.e. when JJ goes into his classroom for the first time and gets a standing ovation from peers he has never met before), we all need to remember that just because someone has a disability that it does not make them abnormal. The show does a great job portraying this message to its viewers. One of the most comical aspects of the show is the reactions JJ's family (as well as JJ himself) has to people' extreme kindness in reaction to his disability. The entire family find people's reactions to be absurd, and goes as far at times to mock those who treat JJ any differently. I recommend this show not only to those who know someone with disability (or has a disability themselves) but also anyone in need of some comic relief surrounding a topic that makes so many uncomfortable.
