Absolutely the worst movie.

The first must-see film of the year.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Well done about a subject that needs to addressed more. But if they were all on Dr. Phil I imagine the good doctor would point out to Halles's character that she seemed to want her son back as much if not more so, for herself and her own healing.

Very heartwarming, inspirational, and touching film right from the heart. Losing Isaiah is a film based on the beautiful novel by Seth Margolis. The book and the film itself was outstanding. Wonderful acting by Halle Berry, Jessica Lange, Marc John Jefferies and the entire cast.The film deals with emotional issues of adoption and it's based on real- life situations. The story-line was filled with hope. Losing Isaiah was a sad and uplifting moving story, a recommendation for all families. The film and the novel is must watch and read for a lifetime.God bless this film."and a child shall lead them." - Isaiah 11:6

2 women 1 child, but all the love in the world. Halle Berry was outstanding and Jessica Lang was as well. This movie was a great touching movie and showed us all that the love of a child goes deeper than anyone can imagine. A drug addict who leaves her baby in a box so she can go get high. A Dr. who gets attached to this drug addicted baby, who later adopts him. Its about a family who loves this little boy more than anything and in one swift moment the mother comes back, clean and sober and wants her baby back. Does she deserve him, whose to say, just because she made a mistake and almost killed him doesn't mean she loves him any less right??? A story about a woman who sees that she cant come in and take a child and make everything alright, a woman who feels dead and wants to die than to lose the child she has come to love as her own. Two women who come together to give this child all the love that they can. Its a touching movie, and and inspiration to see one woman turn her life around. Its a story not about race, but about LOVE and how one and even two can love someone so much. I really enjoyed it.

Caught this one on cable the other night. It's an older movie that has quite a few stars in it. Halle Barry plays a crack addict-turned mommy that, like a lot of crack people, abandons her baby in a pile of trash in an ally. The baby is found and the story goes off in two different directions. Jessica Lange plays the richer white lady that adopts the baby after nobody claims him. This film also stars Samuel L. Jackson as an attorney later on in the movie. Cuba Gooding Jr. is also in this one playing Barry's boyfriend. I liked this movie. It was on cable and it seemed like it took forever! The ending is well worth the wait though! You don't want to miss this one!!
