| Description: | A widowed mother and her son change when a mysterious stranger enter their lives. | Comments: | Stephen King's Hearts In Atlantis (directed by Scott Hicks) starts out slow, but that's only to crescendo into a well crafted drama about a boy, Bobby (Anton Yelchin) who lives with his widowed mother (Hope Davis). One day, a person comes to rent out the upstairs room in they're house. His name is Ted, played with a quiet power by Sir Anthony Hopkins, who befriends the young Bobby (he pays him a dollar a day to read him the paper). But with these visits, Bobby gets a gift from Ted- a psychic one. And this gift, he finds, might bring trouble. Hopkins steals most of the show, but the other performances are also quite good, and it is matched well with some great dramatic moments and scenes made finely. Though I don't know if it true or not, it is an emotional tale (a good one) that will make some feel good they paid the 8.50, and some not. Either way, it's also gets good direction, cinematography and score.
