Shock Therapy R This felt like a straw-man story. Implausible in its sudden purchasing power through credit cards or even its sudden interest from delivery staff, this movie doubles down on sentimentality. Then, <poof> the money is gone, the delivery friends are gone, but she finds a band with whom to play. If you want to watch a real story about dying of cancer, watch Wit (2001). If you want to watch a Pollyanna movie about joining a band, watch this one. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/03/22 Full Review Audience Member I liked it. I want to watch it again but can't seem to find it anywhere. This is the kind of movie I think people would want to see in 2020... something about it gives me inspiration of hope. I really do hope that one of the streaming services will put it out there. I know it didn't get the best reviews but if anyone out there is even slightly a tad bit quirky like I am there will be an audience. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I simply love this movie, its kind of sweet sadness. Saffron is just perfect for the role. The whole idea behind this is fascinating, to enjoy every day as if it would be the last and not bother about tomorrow. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Good premise, rotten movie. As per too usual, the lead actress just has to walk around naked, then has to perform one sex scene after another, some with men, some with women... because you know, that's what men want to see in a "drama" movie. GARBAGE. That's what this movie should have been called: GARBAGE. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Automatically recommended by robot maybe because I play guitars. I bought it. Her silhouette is beautiful as well as the guitar sound backing up the movie. There are sometimes chances to change our lifestyles. This movie is good for looking, listening and thinking. I have an experience that my idiopathic interstitial pneumonia disappeared. So, I believe this story can happen. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I think the slightly corny predictability takes away from the emotion of this film and perhaps any rawness in the face of adversity,. A little bit of light and shade would have made this film memorable. As someone who has been learning to play the guitar for quite a while, the music geek in me was silently screaming at the speed of her talent. With all that said it was watchable and I seem to be a fan of saffron burrows. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
