A brilliant film that helped define a genre

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This is a really good film. Strong narrative, decent acting performances, likable and relatable characters, and decent production quality. 1 Mile to You joins a large number of films that combine a teen romance theme with a heartbreaking story, and this movie is one of the better examples despite its generally simpler narrative. If you're looking for something light and heartwarming, this film is an ideal choice for you.

While the acting, score and filming are all polished and solid, this is a difficult movie to watch if you have read Jeremy Jackson's excellent novel and/or know anything about running. The movie tries hard to capture the spirit and inner turmoil of Kevin. However the running scenes are laughable and most of the original story-line/characters of the novel are either altered or left out completely. Those who haven't read the book or see running as merely recreational will probably find enough positives to embrace the film. If you're in love with the book, take a pass on this rendition.

Actor Graham Rogers is a 26-y/o high school student whose tragic loss of friends and track teammates sets the stage for this "running as emotional release" teen tearjerker.The film may work for teens, but anyone older will notice that Graham's catharsis is superficial. Be it the grief-by-numbers script, Hallmark/Lifetime-level direction, or Graham's acting limitations, this tale if personal turmoil keeps its emotions on the surface like an oil slick.In just a couple of scenes, veteran actor Tim Roth infuses more interest than Rogers manages for the rest of the film.Billy Crudup deserves better dialogue as well as character development. Th0ough he isn't an "It Boy" anymore, Crudup's acting chops were proved in the recent gem 20th CENTURY WOMEN.For a far superior conceptualization of this type of tragedy, see THE SWEET HEREAFTER. The recent French film "1:54" portrays a troubled runner with much more depth and interest, despite that film's fail at the finish line.
