When his wealthy grandfather dies, trust fund baby Jason Stevens inherits his grandfather's crash course on life: 12 tasks-or gifts-designed to challenge Jason in improbable ways. The "course" sends Jason on a journey of self-discovery that forces him to reevaluate his priorities and determine what he thinks the most important things in life really are.

Summary: The Ultimate Gift
Comment: Our family really enjoyed this movie together. It was perfect to watch at Christmas time when the topic of "gifts" was being discussed. The main character was quite real and his adventures were insightful and provoked some good discussion.

Summary: What a message this movie has!
Comment: I loved the book and I loved the movie as well. I have purchased several copies of this DVD to give to family and friends as gifts. All of them have totally enjoyed it. I wish they would show it in all middle schools and high schools because the message is so important: Life has non-monetary gifts for us to learn daily, or as in the movie -- monthly. I am planning to purchase more copies of this DVD to give as gifts.

Summary: Great movie and got what I ordered!
Comment: This movie is incredibly inspiring by providing such important life lessons most people forget the value of. I have purchased it as a gift for others as well. I have also purchased products they talk about to help bring those lessons to your own family. A must see -- regardless of your religious background.

Summary: This is our "gift"
Comment: Jason Stevens has lived all his life pampered, with money as available to him as water or air. He believes that his grandfather (Red Stevens) has destroyed his life and has a serious grudge upon him. He makes a disrespectful entrance to Red's funeral and lazily shows up at the reading of the will expecting to get nothing. However, he is presented with a video of Red telling him that he will have to go through a series of {12} "gifts" to get "The Ultimate Gift". With some persuading of his greedy girlfriend, the start of Jason's journey begins, at first toward his only goal-the money.
Jason meets Emily, a leukemia-stricken girl with a big heart and a smart mouth, and slowly becomes friends with her. She intuitively helps him through the increasingly difficult challenges. The "gifts" slowly turn Jason from a pampered snob to a loving philanthropist.
This heart-wrenching movie is our appropriate wake-up call. Too many people in this world need some unraveling of their twisted, money-lusting souls by gifts such as Jason's. It is a wonderful film that the whole family can enjoy, with well-cast actors that make the movie subtle in atmosphere, and humor spread perfectly across the movie(love the part when Gus electrifies him with that cattle stick). This movie can inspire us deeply to look at the world in new way. This movie is OUR "gift"!
