Young David Henrie best known for being the eldest Russo sibling on the Disney
Channel show The Witches Of Waverly Place plays the title role of Cory Weissman
in 1000 To 1: The Cory Weissman Story. In this film Henrie plays a juvenile
stroke victim and basketball star who makes a long road to recovery and truth
be told isn't quite all there when the film concludes.
Anyone who has ever been sick with a lengthy illness will identify with Henrie and his situation. It does happen that strokes occur even among young people and that's what happens to him at the tender age of 19. It also takes time to recover and when one is committed to physical activity like team sports the impatience is a natural occurence. Worse for him are the occasional seizures he suffers which are discouraging.
Henrie does a fine job in a role quite different from The Wizard Of Waverly Place. Also to be noted in the cast are Beau Bridges as his coach and Michael Lerner as a mental health counselor who treats Henrie for said impatience.
1000 To 1 is a nice inspirational and pleasant sports story good for the whole family.
