I love the intended message behind the idea of paying it forward. Someone does something nice for you, you do something nice for 3 other people, or whatever it was. OK, so I can't remember exactly. I guess I was distracted by the end of the movie. I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't already seen this (although considering it's been about 11 years, anyone who hasn't seen it yet isn't likely too), but I thought the ending sucked and ultimately, negated the message. I sure wish someone had spoiled the end for me. That and I didn't find Helen Hunt's performance as an alcoholic, white trash mom very believable. Julia Roberts did it better, minus the alcoholic part. And Bon Jovi as her alcoholic, abusive husband? Were they desperate? Well, at least I didn't have to pay to see this.
