I don't remember much from this movie as I saw it once when I was a little kid with my dad. I did remember that it is about a gifted seven year-old named Fred, whose mother (played by Jodie Foster) tries to bring him up in the real world.
As a kid genius, he sees his abilities are more advanced than normal than people in his age group; I thought the scene where a few adults looking over Fred's shoulder at his test during class was pretty funny. This gives the story a little intrigue as you see how he grows up in the real world and how his single mother tries to overcome the odds to raise him.
It's not an incredibly fast-paced film but it's a simple and touching story that is fine for the entire family.
Grade B-
