iThe Ultimate Gift/i is a tale of one man's tumultuous journey toward personal growth and fulfillment. Surrounded in life, and death, by avaricious family members fueled by a sense of entitlement, billionaire Red Stevens (James Garner) wants to bequeath at least one member of his extended family "the ultimate gift": something he perceives as immensely more valuable than material wealth. Red's arrogant grandson Jason (Drew Fuller) holds a deep-seated hatred for his newly-deceased grandfather, so he's surprised to learn from his grandfather's friend and lawyer Mr. Hamilton (Bill Cobbs) and assistant Miss Hastings (Lee Meriwether) that he's been mentioned in his late grandfather's will. Far from a straightforward gift of cash, land, or stock, Red's bequest comes in the form of a series of mysterious recorded instructions, the first of which requires Jason to hop on a plane for Texas the very next morning without a hint of the trip's purpose or the nature of the gift that awaits him. Dropped into a life of hard physical labor on a ranch in the middle of nowhere, Jason's bad-tempered fury eventually turns to resignation and he finds himself engaged in, and even taking pride in, the first real manual labor he's ever done in his life. Unbeknownst to him, his journey toward claiming the ultimate gift has only just begun. When he returns from Texas, Jason finds his home cleared out, his car confiscated, and instructions to produce one true friend. While Jason is reduced to sleeping in the park, a young child name Emily (Abigail Breslin) and her mother Alexia (Ali Hillis) make his acquaintance and lead him to re-examine his personal prejudices and perceptions of what's truly important in life. Jason's journey of self-discovery continues throughout a series of other trying experiences and, in the end, Grandpa Red's "ultimate gift" of life lessons profoundly and permanently improves the quality of Jason's life. What's more, Jason's new perspective of his place in society has a very positive affect on the larger community. This very powerful film is funny, heartbreaking, and intensely thought-provoking. i--Tami Horiuchi/i br/br br/br span class="h1"strongStills from IThe Ultimate Gift/I (click for larger image)/strong/span table border="0" cellpadding="4" width="100%" cellspacing="4"p p tr align="center" valign="top" p tdimg border="1" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/aplus/75_small.jpg"br p /td td img border="1" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/aplus/77_small.jpg"br /td p tdimg border="1" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/aplus/82_small.jpg"br /td/tr tr align="center" valign="top" td img border="1" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/aplus/85_small.jpg"br /td td img border="1" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/aplus/94_small.jpg"br /td /tr /table

 THE ULTIMATE GIFT December 4, 2008
Rogers Carrington (SAN RAFAEL, CA USA)
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST MEANINGFUL MOVIES FOR PARENTS TO WATCH WITH THEIR CHILDREN. IF PARENTS AND CHILDREN CAN LISTEN AND LEARN IT CAN CHANGE ATTITUDES FROM ENTITLEMENT TO CONTRIBUTION. THE MAJOR SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS IS THAT CONTRIBUTING TO OTHERS IS SO MUCH MORE FULFILLING THAN EXPECTING OTHERS TO GIVE TO YOU BECAUSE OF SOME DISTORTED BELIEF THAT OTHERS OWE YOU SOMETHING. TREATING OTHERS AS THE -ONE- THAT WE ARE TOGETHER IS CRITICAL TO OUR PERSONAL AND CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT.
The Ultimate Must-See Movie November 30, 2008
Kentfarm (Phillipsburg, MT USA)
This movie sums up the Puritan values that every conservative Christian believes in! The acting is first-class, no corners cut on production!
It has it all. November 20, 2008

Some friends and I enjoyed this movie very much. I purchased five copies, so that should say something about this wonderful movie.

BuggyBee (Florida)
I loved this movie - especially because of James Garner! br / br /The Ultimate gift is about a young, wealthy, selfish young man who may be able to inherit his grandfather's millions. However there are some tasks he must complete. It sounds like a familiar story doesn't it? It's much more.
