Thanks for the memories!

Perfectly adorable

Absolutely brilliant

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This was the most beautiful heart-breaking film that I have ever watched. This story will stay with me until I am dying myself. This masterpiece has comedy and tragedy mixed together so perfectly, I cannot express it in words. I am blown away. The ending was amazing. I think this is a film about sacrifice, secrets, life but most of all friendship, and what these four men mean to each other. Honestly this will linger in my thoughts for the rest of my days. It made me cry so much, I just sat and watched the credits with tears rolling down my face. This is a profound masterpiece, especially if you have been through something like this yourself. Watch it, and it will change your perspective on life.

I am not at the point this film displays, but I am 21 and face a tumour almost touching my brain. I'm nowhere near suicide tho so no worries there. This film felt obnoxiously real tho. I watched this because of Cumberpatch's performance as Holmes. An incredibly gripping film, I hated watching, until I watched the end. All actors played their role to perfection. The realities of facing the challenges that come up in life are so well portrayed. Messy situations lead to making a decision based on what we think is right now. All this leads up to the modern collapse of all morality. No one knows what is right and what is wrong anymore. Everything is right. Nothing is wrong.

It's some kind of buddy movie, but not as "Hangover" did it. Not at all. It's about true friendship and the joy of life. You might cry at the end... I did not. It's not a sad movie, it's a true movie. Love is a big theme here, and the landscape plays a big part, too.Cumberbatch is overwhelmingly brilliant and heartbreaking as James, who's ill with cancer and goes on a trip with his three best friends to live life to the fullest one last time. Cumberbatch is fragile and strong, tearing up and laughing out loud within seconds, embracing life and annoying his friends with worldly wisdoms. He's not an entirely likable character and therefore the more likable. Tom Burke, Adam Robertson and JJ Field also do an excellent job, but it's Cumberbatch who is the most mesmerizing thing on-screen. When the film ends, you feel exhausted but not sad. And you want to meet your friends and tell them that you love them.

Great film, powerful and moving. It ranges somewhere between "A Single Man" and "Tree of Life" and definitely belongs into the "Arthouse"-section. If you enjoy slow-paced, poetic storytelling and are not opposed to the odd figurative metaphor this is definitely a good tip.Anyway, at first I was frustrated because I didn't understand a lot of the dialogue. But the subtitles distracted me from the scenes and so I turned them off. I only realized about half-way through the film that it was really quite unimportant what they were talking about. It was the mood that counted, the emotions and the dynamics between the characters. To me, their emotional journey was beautifully illustrated and underlined by the gradual loss of their luggage - their worldly possessions, so to say - and artificial means of help, leaving them literally on their own with barely anything besides their naked emotions in the end, and here only the stuff that really mattered. I think one can safely say that the film truly "boils down" to its ending. Here I have to say that ALL actors were brilliant. The breathtaking Benedict Cumberbatch might have had the leading role and the most screen time in total but EVERYBODY did a fantastic job at showing the conflicting emotions that occur in this kind of situation. I also thought that everything was pretty realistic, thanks to a fabulous script. The anger, being envious of the people around you for the time they still have, the regret and bitterness but also the peace and the feeling of security that comes with knowing your destination are all feelings that one can relate to.Besides, the film was beautifully shot and edited. The quiet pictures of the sea or of birds wheeling overhead alternating with the scenes of emotional tension, the soundtrack... it all fitted together perfectly. Anyway, prepare a big box of tissues if you plan to sit through this one. BC's performance will break your heart.
