Tirdad Derakhshani said of the film "Who's Driving Doug, an emotional coming-of-age story about a college student with osteodystrophy, is one of those movies that stacks the decks against critical viewers.
If you don't like it, you come off as a heartless misanthrope - especially since its titular star, RJ Mitte, actually suffers from mild cerebral palsy.
"[1] Back To The Movies called it a "A beautiful tale of love, life, responsibility and coping with life when the odds are stacked again you, Who’s Driving Doug is a heart-felt tale that tugs at the heart strings every step of the way.
