Am I Missing Something?
... View MoreGreat movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
... View MoreThis movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
... View MoreExcellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
... View MoreNot far into this movie I said to myself, "this style reminds me of Twilight." Sure enough, when the end credits rolled up I saw it was directed by Catherine Hardwick. I think this could've been a much better film in the hands of someone else. I wasn't a fan of the cinematography at all. Even though Collette and Barrymore give great performances the movie drags. Tysonitter totally took me out of the story. I mean he even has his AAR tattoo practically screaming in your face. I thought it was a poor choice. I appreciate the film's bleak look at cancer and how it affects the person diagnosed as well as everyone around them. It was emotional and as someone who has experienced loss and grief, quite triggering. I felt rather depressed (I mean, it's about cancer) and I kind of wish I'd known beforehand what it was about. This is a movie I would advise others to skip, but to each their own.
... View MoreAside from the obvious chemistry between Toni Collette and Drew Barrymore, there are so many things wrong with this movie. I hung in there until the end--the incredibly predictable end--if only to confirm my predictions.Apparently, according to this film, being diagnosed with breast cancer is a sudden ticket to be a complete narcissist. For a mother who promised her kids she would always be there for them, she sure has a short memory, even when things were within her control.What a waste.
... View MoreDear, I just want to congratulate the team; the writer, the director, the producer , the DOP and most especially the cast of this film and above all the two friends. These two girls showed a real bond of love and care between the friends and how they help and support each other in the times of their crises. The amazing thing what i had noted in the movie was the splendid feeling of sacrifice and care about your loved ones has been explained really in a sober and aesthetic manner. The whole team deserves the credit of this movie to be aired and thank you very much the production house for giving us a quality entertainment after a long time. I am just amazed and was having tears in my eyes seeing the condition of cancer patient, same was the feeling of my mother when we both were watching it.. May ALLAH save all of us from these kind of diseases.
... View MoreThis is not like one of those you have already seen cancer themed film, there's two main characters and their two sets of struggles. They both are very close friends since childhood. When they grow up, one settles down comfortably in life, but fall seriously ill and another one struggles to build a family.I think the film's strength was the development in every scene without wasting a bit. There's always something happens that keeps us alive. I expected the usual, but it gave me a different entertainment. In the movie everything was between two friends, even each had their own family to care about, this story concentrated what came between them and how they fought together.Great direction, shot in wonderful places, but the actors were decent. They should have been better, especially Toni Collette. To me the sentiments were very weak knowing the theme belong to the tearjerkers. Initially you might think it is a female version of '50/50', almost it was, but tried to be a different with additional story expansion. Overall a good movie, little fun to watch, you might enjoy it, but I can't guarantee.7/10
