Akeelah and the Bee

A young girl from South Los Angeles tries to make it to the National Spelling Bee.

Akeelah and the Bee is a charming movie that the whole family can enjoy again and again. I don't know what it is, but I have seen it multiple times and I thoroughly enjoy it every time. I think it's a fairly popular movie, but if it somehow went under your radar you should definitely check it out.
