It's a bold idea, taking mental handicap as a backdrop for a story about a man's growing up, but this film chickens out as soon as it begins. Nothing is real, nothing is at risk.

It's just so predictable.

Knoxville não é um grande ator, mas o filme é suficientemente divertido (ainda que não engraçado) e tem um bom coração.

As in the best Special Olympics events, everyone finds a way to win.

my biggest complaint about the film is that it was too soft

Hits all the right notes in comedy, light down to Earth drama, and a resulting tasteful comedy that's worth watching.

The Ringer, for all its glaring flaws, pulls the rug out from under us.

The worthwhile bits are few and far between. In the rush to avoid exploiting the athletes, the filmmakers have stuck it to the audience instead. Not funny.

...a whole lot better than one might've expected.

An uncomfortable intermingling of message movie and gross-out comedy, a sporadically funny vehicle that indicts its audience for laughing. Come on, guys. You can't have your fun and eat it too.

A good-natured comedy that isn't particularly interesting or, for that matter, very funny.

Predictable and unconvincing as romantic comedy, the movie is surprisingly sweet and funny whenever Steve is hanging out with his fellow Special Olympics players.
