I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Plot-wise it's already a little dumb. So this girl "helps" guys every month by sleeping with them and making them fall in love? All because she's dying? What help is that supposed to do? She squeezes herself into one's life, tries to change it in drastic ways, and then when he falls in love she drops the bomb? I think that's selfish. Nelson's transition from being all "get away from me" to "I wanna be with you forever" felt all too sudden and unrealistic. Also, the fact that he gave up a big opportunity for a girl he just met is crazy! Hey, love isn't gonna feed you. Wasn't he fired already? So he actually kinda swallowed his pride and tried to suck it up to get a meeting with this big guy and he just throws it away for what? Because Mr. Big guy got pissed and he politely told the waitress how he felt? And that waitress crying where the customers can see? That's weird and unprofessional unless, well, she's asking for attention and I won't feel bad for that.Another weird thing is if Sarah stopped chemo over a year ago and her cancer's in a late stage, she would have more physical symptoms that Nelson would have noticed and questioned. They were together 24/7! Keanu's acting was not that good. When he's not talking he looks alright.I don't like the movie overall but I'm not giving it a 1/10 because the ending scene was actually quite cute. It's got me a bit of goosebumps going on. Too bad the story didn't build up so well.

#1 Sara: u know, he asked me 2 marry him. Chaz: He's not the first...Sara: No, but it was the 1st time I wanted 2 say "Yes".#2 Nelson: This is our month and it never has 2 end. I surrender all attempts to control life…yours or mine. I live 4 (One Thing): 2 love u, 2 make u happy, 2 live firmly&joyously in the moment. "November is all I know & all I ever wanna know."u can see how u can meet a woman & she makes u feel the life as Sara did, she made Nelson enjoy social life, family, build a life with a partner and all men don't see blesses in life until they met that special woman and say we gotta marry that woman & no one but her gotta be the mother of my child

the movie made no sense the plot was boring & to mention in addition there was absolutely nothing to watch. Lemme tell me the plot in my way, there was a man living his own life and suddenly some day a girl out of nowhere starts telling him that you are not living life to fullest and same old crap and then girls like wants the man to come live with him and i don't know f**k him and cause he too wants it so bad he goes to her. So now they live with each other happy and some day girl goes crazy and suddenly she is sick and no surprise she has a cancer and as she has mad rules and stuff she leaves the man and THE END. Ending is just so Boo man. Wasted my 2hours and 1 min on the movie. Seriously DON'T watch the movie until u need a reason to be depressed ... LOL !!

Keanu Reeves is what every man dreams of being: successful, good-looking, in good health, in shape, with money, with a good job, with a nice apartment. This movie then tries to make viewers believe--as ridiculous as this may sound--that this is not enough. That Reeves' character is somehow not only NOT what he seems to be (a successful man) but that he is somehow lonely. Dissatisfied. That he suffers from the pathology of being too "normal."The solution?This stable guy is just so sick of his good job and good life (boohoo, he's so normal and boring) that, when he meets some weirdo chick whose life is completely out of control and who offers him random sex (for personal, heart-tugging reasons we are to discover later), he gets sucked into her world. And what a world it is!Chaos, instability, insanity, sexual deviants, homosexuals, cross dressers (who can also run successful companies too, didn't you know), and eventually they just, you know, like...touch his heart and make him a not so uptight guy, but an enlightened '90s skirtboy; the kind of superior man who has dinner with his insane girlfriend and her pervert neighbours and doesn't even bat an eyelash at the freakishness surrounding him.Without meaning to give away the plot, the reason for the woman offering him random sex is a clever plot device to make the mentally ill liberal world she represents immune to reproach. It tricks gullible viewers into feeling that putting down sick left-wing extremist liberal TRASH makes the viewer himself morally suspect. Nice touch.This movie is a pathetic piece of turd scrap. Cultural Marxist propaganda of the most revolting sort.
