The storyline is so common it’s a cliche, but it’s done so well it feels completely new. Hanks is perfect. He never has a conversion to Mr. Rogers, which is how these “feel good” movies normally turn out. He remains himself throughout.

The neighbors could have easily been a cliche as well, but they weren’t. Same with the feral cat. I may watch it again, but only if I have a good supply of tissues.
