jude h While most of the so-called' critics panned this movie, it was an excellent example of a young man learning that life is more than just having a good time. He learns his 'friends' are only friends with his money and that true friends want something completely different from him… just him. It was uplifting and tragic, showing the progress he makes along the road to his real self, one who gets more out of giving to others than always taking for himself. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/13/25 Full Review Joanne J The message behind the movie, that is where the gold is at. The world does not appreciate this type of message. You take a self-indulgent man and put him into situations he cannot control, take away those things he thinks are important and what you end up with in the end is one of 2 things. A bitter man who will never be satisfied in this world, or a man who recognizes that there are things more important in this world than money and things. I was rooting for this guy to be the latter one and in true tissue needing style, I got what I wanted! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/02/25 Full Review Faiz D I would have enjoyed it had I seen it when I was a kid. However, the movie seemed so... "unnatural" to me. Ultimately disappointing! Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/13/25 Full Review Sarah B This is my favorite inspirational movie, first of all Drew Fuller who played Jay does a great job acting spoiled and carefree when you first meet him but clearly has some unresolved issues from his childhood, and he's cute to boot. And then Abigail Breslin does a great job as sassy Emily and Bill Cobbs as ornery Mr. Hamilton. And the movie has a great message about there being more to life than money. Lastly, there's a clear disconnect between the Popcornmeter and the Tomatometer. Well, the critics can stuff it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/25 Full Review Charles O I guess I will be the odd one. This movie shows humanity in ways the world has completely forgotten. If you come from certain parts of the world, you will find out just how awesome this movie is. So yes I am giving it a five star even if a lot of people disagree. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/06/24 Full Review Charlie B The Ultimate Gift is one of the best movies I have ever seen and a perfect movie for the whole family. The Gifts of Work, Money, Friends, Learning, Problems, Family, Laughter, Dreams, Giving, Gratitude, the Gift of a Day and the Gift of Love. Watched the entire movie hugging my daughter, wife and son, so glad I chose this movie. James Garner is incredible in this movie. Of course any movie with a statue of Jesus Christ is always a good movie. There are two sequels to this movie, The Ultimate Life and The Ultimate Legacy. If they are half as good The Ultimate Gift I am certain they will be outstanding. Both my son and daughter want to watch the sequels.
