Anything Up About "Upside"?

{Ok, I know, wacky post title, but I couldn't think of anything better... :] }

Has anyone heard anything about the movie "Upside"? I learned about it recently, and it sounds good so far, but as always, I'm a little leary about buying a movie I've never seen. It's supposed to come out on DVD on Oct. 5. If anyone knows if there's anything objectionable in it, or if it's another great one like Facing The Giants, Fireproof, or Come What May, please let me know!

I am a skeptic myself!

I just received the email about this movie but know nothing about it...

I Have Not Lived In Vain

If I can be a servant
along life's dusty road,
Or ease a heavy burden,
or share a traveler's load,
If I have loved the friendless
or soothed a burning pain,
My life has not been wasted,
And I have not lived in vain.

If I have caused one face to smile
where once was only tears,
Or lifted up a heavy heart
burdened down by mirthless years,
If I can to a desert soul
be a cool and lovely rain,
Then my life has not been wasted,
And I have not lived in vain.

If I can to a sad heart bring
the hope of joy and peace,
Or from the wicked sin-stained chains
a prisoner release,
If I can to a searching soul
make the path to Heaven plain,
My life will not be wasted,
And I have not lived in vain.

If maybe to a dreamer's heart
a companion I can be,
And maybe share with them a sight
that only dreamers see,
Or if I can catch a falling star-
set it in the sky again-
Then my life has not been wasted,
And I have not lived in vain.

If I look back at what I've done
all through the years,
And think of one place, along the road,
where I've helped to lessen tears
Or I see the footprints of a soul
who I've helped the Way to gain,
My life has not been wasted,
And I HAVE NOT LIVED IN VAIN!
