Anyone that cannot find that this movie is one of the best they've ever seen just is not yet wise enough to see the amazing inspiration in it. If you want to get away from the material things of this world, and remember those things that are greater, watch it! This movie shows how we can all conquer any adversity by looking within ourselves. no moment is ordinary: there's never nothing giong on. God bless. a servant of the King

Peaceful Warrior
We had viewed this film and decided that since our grandson is an olympian and is going through setbacks at this time, it wuld be a good film for him to see. It represents, to us, the mondern generation of some athletes who have so much "trash" swimming in their environment that it becomes difficult to concentrate on what really matters. Focus, with the end in view. Very motivating.

Good movie, dark at times, hard to follow at times, my students like it, bought it for a motivation movie for advisory students

Silencing the Mind
This movie even after 3 viewings inspires me with it depiction of how altering your mind can alter your life. I really liked the under acted method that Nick Nolte used in his Socrates characterization. It was succinct and to the point each time and moved the central character on to further inspiration and motivation to advance back in his gymnastic career.I feel the movie did the book justice as well and stayed on course with Socrates teaching. Being in the moment totally or the now was vividly demonstrated when the gymnast did the horse routine brilliantly with no prior training or coaching. Also the scene where he tunes in for the first time to whats going on around him in the park by amplifying his senses was fascinating and showed our potential for truly focusing externally and opening up to what's out there all the time. I am sure a lot of people will consider this movie a fantasy. However there will be a smaller percentage that will see what its saying and pursue getting the written material for further exploration of the human races potential.

Horrible Acting from all actors
I had read the book and was anxious to see the movie. The acting was just horrible and watched liked a low B grade movie. It would appear that looking at the ratings that I am in the minority but I think that the book is a hundred times better... YMMV

Product Quality
The video itself is amazing and highly recommended, however I was very disappointed with the product quality.
The sound of the movie is about 30 seconds before the images all the way through the movie and find this not acceptable.
You see the images of a conversation or other actions 30 seconds after you hear the sames conversations or actions.
