Audience Member This movie turned my life around Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member This is an incredibly intense film that stayed on my mind for months after watching it - finally I ordered the book from Amazon but unfortunately the film was only released on a type of DVD that can't be played on my standard U.S.-manufactured DVD player. All I can hope for is that one day whatever movie provider I have will replay it so I can record it. It's quite a life-changer and I highly recommend this movie! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie starts out in the fast lane with so many laughs and comedy tropes, that by the time it's slowed down a bit, you've discovered that you've been drawn into quite a touching tale. Nicely done! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member brilliant movie... british movie making - at its best! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Well this was a surprise. I can honestly say I didnt expect to like this film and it blew me away. At the end of the film I was in floods of tears. This film was superb. I've had this in my to watch box for some time, perhaps because my XBMC couldnt find the poster for it the film didnt look like it was worth watching with just a still from the movie to highlight it. Nevertheless going through my collection last night I decided to give it a go. I must say I wasn't too impressed to begin with, the film seemed to be about a director going on a bender getting drunk and trying to sleep with lots of women but it developed nicely and used the time jumping style of flitting between different periods of time without ever confusing you too much. The acting was good, the film was funny and emotionally engaging. There was much to praise in the storyline above all and I really felt for Noah when he found out the cancer had come back and he couldn't tell his wife who proceeded to go off at him for being aloof and so on. I'm sure this storyline has been done before but I have to say it worked for me anyway. The only surprise for me is that this film hasn't gathered more praise and attention as I thoroughly enjoyed it. This is a good example of British film making and the kind of stuff they do best. There should be more of this. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Fovero ergaki koukouroukou typas o protagonisths aytokatastrofikos ena retsli orthio.
