I'm usually asleep after 15 minutes of every movie,it was pleasantly uplifting to see a very pretty girl interested in guy who has some mental disability. The soundtrack is beautiful

differenciates between genuine love for someone else and love for someone who you see only as a reflection of yourself

Amazing movie, watched it after months of waiting after seeing the trailer, didn't dissapoint in any way. One of those films that you can't stop thinking about afterwards.

absolutely a must to watch, and the soundtrack is fantastic

Even if you don't want it to, the movie touches something inside of you and you can't quite see things or people around you the same way anymore. It was extremely beautiful and Hugh Dancy was simply amazing in bringing a character with Adam's complexity to life. Oh, and the fact that he's really good looking does not hurt either. (:

Make you realize life isnt that bad. To feel what others feel especially the one you love isnt so bad. Good music too.

I absolutely loved this movie. I had seen a commercial for it but never saw it come out in theatres (I waited forever!) which I think is a real shame.

posted by Mysc on May 13, 2010 08:42:34
It was amazing. Did not feel like watching a film was more like an insight into someones life and this was because they did not break off into any mainstream storyline that we have seen too many times but incorporated the story into Adam's life and of course the great acting by all involved.

It was a very good representation of a person with aspergers syndrome, i knew someone with this condition and although the case in the film was more extreme i seen things in this that i knew that these people would say and do.

Absolutely great...Rose Byrne is superb!

sometimes you don´t find the right words to define something beautiful...I just it, saw the film, saw the beauty of love..of a deeper, more romantic and honest love..I just saw beauty through this wonderful film.

the thing about this movie is the use that people have of the word sickness, wow are we so screwed up not to be able to notice our envy of the Character of Adam. To be that honest in a world of dishonesty and self serving trite at all levels. Give me a world of Adams any day of the week. This is fine work by all involved a breath of fresh air in recent works of the cinema similar to "Crazy Heart" really good to see feel and move with these guys who are committed to their art at all levels. Thank you the Director/production team and Actors for Adam. Love to you all Mal Brittain

great movie, i love the actors.

I have a child on the Autism Spectrum and I noticed bits of him in Adam. I cried through the whole movie because I know that we deal with these and so many issues on a daily basis. Though to be honest I was offended by the comment about this being a "sickness" my child doesnt have a sickness just the power to see the world in a better view.

its my life....... amitk.in
posted by Amitk on Feb 05, 2010 01:46:02I loved this story. The acting was very realistic. I laughed, cried and was very encouraged by the ending. It is so good to have a movie made about Aspergers and the difficulties they have to overcome, but the outcome was really so encouraging. This is a movie I would definetly purchase.

Loved this movie. Great performances from all involved. Its rare to come across a movie like this, that you hadn't previously heard of, and be so affected by it.
posted by lenie on Jan 16, 2010 07:08:27Hugh Dancy is such an amazing actor. To make those scenes in the movie come to life just like a person with the actual sickness is truely a gift! Such a great actor. I also have a new outlook on people with Asp. I just wish that she would have given him the chance to be loved by her more than anyone else because I think he really did love her but at the moment when she asked him why he wanted her to move with him...he misunderstood the real truth to the question. I wish I could give that chance to someone like that. They really deserve it :-)

This movie was so amazing. I love it the plot, actors, and actresses! The acting is so real and it causes to draw you in to the movie more! Even though the end was a "romantic happily ever after" type deal, I thought the ending was really nice, suggesting that people with that illness can make it in the world on their own. It is very uplifting and such a lovable movie. 2 THUMBS UP! I have told everyone about it! If you haven't watched it....GO WATCH IT! I love this movie! <3
posted by Beth on Jan 15, 2010 06:40:39
Beautiful movie, with a perfect soundtrack. One of the best romances I've seen, and Aspergers was treated with the respect it deserved. Definately worth a second watch!

I loved this movie so much and cried like a baby. It is a beautiful story line
posted by EstefVal on Sep 27, 2009 07:09:07
It was a realistic romantic drama about how Beth helped Adam become more of a normal person even though he had asberger syndrom. The ending is alittle different and suprising and not your average hollywood ending. It's an amazing movie. The story was great the cast was brillant and thats why it deserves 5 stars!
posted by Casey G on Sep 13, 2009 10:05:51
I cried so much in this movie, but it really is a happy story, in the end. I think this is one of the best movies i have ever seen. I Just hope one day i will change someone's life the way Beth changed Adam's. I want to make someone happy.

As Mother of a young man about Adam's age, with Asperger's, this movie really hit home. I thought it was excellent and the acting and music was awesome!

beautiful touching movie. if you haven't felt the deepest part of your soul in a while watch Adam.

AMAZING! The performance Hugh Dancy gives is incredible. Especially during the intense scenes. What a heartwarming yet realistic story!

Brilliant film! Though the storyline is serious, its is presented in a beautiful way, incorporating humor, hard felt sentiments and emotions. Excellent work by Hugh Dancy as well!

One of my favorite films from Sundance. The acting is superb, and it's a moving romance. This film was the only one I saw to get a standing ovation at Sundance, and the first-time director Max Mayer was very moved by that. Can't wait to see it in theaters!
posted by MovieMaven on Jan 24, 2009 04:22:50
Beautifully acted, nicely written. A very enjoyable film of a highly unusual romance.
posted by Emmers on Jan 19, 2009 08:32:29
A well-written script which reveals the many facets of the autistic world of Adam, the central character. His quirks would be turn-offs to the average girl, but Beth sees into the depths of Adam's character, and likes what she finds there!
