A remarkable child actor...

YES! You took the word out of my mouth ! This is exactly my opinion of the film. Definitely overrated but the one thing strangely people seems to completely ignore is just how freaking good that kid was ! Really good ! Like the best child acting I saw in a long time yet people talks a lot about every aspects of the movie except of the only one that really impressed me most wish is how good that little kid was. I actually think he was the best actor in the all movie. I hope he gets more role, he has a bright future.

I liked the movie, but yes, how he wasn't nominated for any major awards is unbelievable.

On the contrary, I didn’t think he portrayed a blind person at all. He looks directly at people talking to him. His eyes are looking and seeing. If I hadn’t read the synopsis of the film, I would not have known the boy was supposed to be blind.

Later on in life, he'll mourn the fact that he gave his ass up to pedophilia producers, for a movie this mediocre

The kid reminded me of Jeremy Black in The Boys from Brasil
