Must-See Movie Review: No Limbs, No Limits – Nothing Holds You Back But Your Own Mental Limitations

Has anyone ever told you that you can’t do something, for whatever reason? Or maybe they can’t?

This film is the incredible story of one man’s journey to the realization that anything is possible – even if you were born without limbs. Nick Vujicic, or Nick V for short as he’s known around the world, was born without arms or legs.  His mother’s doctors were taken by surprise when he was born this way, as was she.  She was a midwife; she knew all the precautions, all the vitamins and nutrition.  She was unprepared for the news that her son, her firstborn, had no arms and no legs, and doctors had no answers.  

But she was very positive and made the best of it.  Nick can’t feed or dress himself, brush his teeth, or do other tasks. He can, with his own certain modifications, write by hand, brush his hair, and ride a skateboard.  He has also gone skydiving and surfing (with assistance, of course). 

One thing that really kept him going, and who was clearly placed right there in his life at that right time, was the school janitor. While waiting for his special car to come and pick him up, he would go to see the janitor.  He never made him feel inferior, and he actually believed that Nick would do great things.  That he would inspire others. To that end, he asked him to speak at his church.  And at that moment, in that inspiration, Nick knew what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. Motivational speaking.  Across the world in the US and other places, since Australia, where he was born, didn’t really have that kind of possibility. He had to go international.  

Now he is known all across the world. And just think, the one person who always thought he would never be able to hug anyone is getting hundreds and hundreds of hugs. People line up after his events to give him a hug and let him know how much his speech meant to them. 

And of all the people to tell us that God has a plan for every one of us and that he will take the broken pieces and make a brand new beautiful painting, it is someone who knows firsthand the pain of rejection, of being different, of being called a freak, of feeling like a burden.  But he is able to move forward in faith every day, knowing that he is loved by God – and that you and I are too. That’s the message this film seeks to share. No matter who you are, no matter what you’ve done, no matter how you were born, you are special and you are loved, just the way you are.  

And if that message is familiar, it’s been said before. Notably by Mister Rogers, but there have been others.  People need to hear that, since we all forget as the world beats us down a little more each day.  You can learn instead to step out in faith and do your best every single day, make others happy, and be completely content in who you are. That is the way to peace and happiness. 

This movie and his life is an inspiration. It’s highly recommended as a must-see movie, and I would give it five stars.

In theaters today: ‘No Limbs, No Limits: The NickV Story’

Chad Robichaux and Mighty Oaks Foundation partner with ‘No Limbs, No Limits’ to provide 4,000 free tickets to veterans

DALLAS — When Nick Vujicic was born with no arms or legs, doctors could offer his parents no explanation and no prognosis. They did not know whether he would ever marry or become a father, or what his life might ultimately hold.

Today, Nick has gone on to accomplish far more than many do in a lifetime. He is a husband, a father of four, a bestselling author, an entrepreneur and one of the world’s most recognized evangelists and motivational speakers, sharing his message of faith and purpose with audiences on nearly every continent.

His remarkable life is now captured in the new film, “No Limbs, No Limits: The NickV Story,” in movie theaters nationwide through Fathom Entertainment, the leading specialty distributor of content to theatrical partners today, September 25.

The film asks, “What if the thing you spent your life trying to fix about yourself is the very thing God wants to use?” Nick’s story reveals our deepest brokenness isn’t the end… It’s often where purpose begins.

Current data reveals that despair, isolation and hopelessness are at historic highs. Nick Vujicic’s story does what almost nothing else can: it disarms cynicism the moment he appears. “No Limbs, No Limits” showcases why his message has carried across cultures, languages and decades.

“‘No Limbs, No Limits’ is for every person who feels hopeless, forgotten, unqualified or broken, and for everyone who knows someone who does,” shared Vujicic.

Since the age of 17, Nick has been on a journey to use his rare ability to connect with and inspire others, uplifting people around the globe with the hope of the Gospel. Nick has been listed among the top three motivational speakers in the world, traveled to more than 83 countries, spoken to millions, met with 25 presidents, vice presidents and prime ministers and shared a message of hope and the transformative power of the Gospel.

The team behind “No Limbs, No Limits” announced a $150,000 “Be a Miracle” Pay It Forward campaign to provide movie tickets to people who might otherwise miss the film, including those living with disabilities, those facing financial hardship or other difficult circumstances. The campaign will also provide tickets to alumni and community members of Chad Robichaux’s Mighty Oaks Foundation, a nonprofit organization that helps veterans and their families recover from trauma and rebuild their lives.

“The ‘Be a Miracle’ campaign gives people a practical way to put that message into action by helping someone who needs encouragement experience this story in a theater. A ticket can be a small gift, but for someone who feels isolated, overlooked or overwhelmed, it can also be a reminder that their life has value and purpose,” said Vujicic. “If you don’t get a miracle, you can still be a miracle for someone.”

The theatrical release is also supported by Nick’s community through the new crowdfunding platform Good Works Hub, and by eKKL Entertainment, a newly launched distribution company focused on faith-based and audience-friendly films, partnering on the release.

Tickets for “No Limbs, No Limits: The NickV Story” are available at participating theater box offices and at Fathom Entertainment or https://www.nickvfilms.com/.
