Great family movie
Three families of my friends enjoyed a wonderful playdate and family time at the cinema last Saturday, watching the movie "Sight." The film left a profound impact on me, as its story deeply resonated with my own personal journey. Growing up in China, I experienced many of the cultural and societal challenges depicted in the movie. Like the protagonist, I made the courageous decision to come to Canada as an international student, facing a new set of challenges and opportunities in a foreign land. The journey of settling down as a first-generation immigrant has been filled with both struggles and triumphs, much like the inspiring tale portrayed in "Sight." Watching this movie was a poignant reminder of the resilience and determination it takes to build a new life in a different country, and it reinforced my appreciation for the journey I have undertaken. - jundyhahaha - 2 June 2024
Very touching story
I always love movies based on true stories. This film particularly appealed to me because it is based on a very touching true story about a Chinese immigrant who grew up in turbulent era in China and overcame all odds to come to the the United States and became a successful, world-renowned ophthalmologist.
The strong use their own abilities selflessly to help the weak. I also love the moral I learned from this film: The present is made possible by the past. This inspires those who have a bad past to face it. This kind of movie that promotes good people and good deeds dserves our support and recommendation. - bellissimo-01749 - 30 May 2024
Compelling, Hopeful, and exposes the Truth
Angel Studios did it again with cinematography, cast, clothing appropriate to era. The movie was a reviting eye opener to the dark side of what goes on in India and one families determination to have their children Excell against all odds. I would see this movie again and have paid it forward for someone else. This movie, and Cabrini should be taught as history and sociology in schools. The world as a whole would benefit from a little more compassion. I only wish every blind person could be healed by Dr. Wang. Thank you doctor for all you do. I like the spirituality and life after death thoughts.
