Gen M Jul 15 Despite the critics ratings I decided to give it a go because I really like Sandra Bullock and Harry Connick Jnr. While it was rather sad but relateable at times, it had an overall uplifting tone. Maybe get the kleenex out while watching. See more thiago s @Thiagostone Jul 11 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Fiona S May 17 Extremely underrated Romance movie. It remains totally true to the Romantic genre and never pretends to be anything else. But like the old movies before scripts became less important than the stars and "ratings", it uses a strong core of drama to pull it together. A hefty dose of realism and the pain of divorce which is still relevant, hits the heart. Forrest Whittaker's direction combines the importance of "place" with poignant close-ups. It helps to be taken away to old-school towns with lush forests and shimmering heat! It's not "smaltzy" as many critics smugly ripped it. It's a movie that shows where there is romance, there is always hope. See more Dave C Jan 7 A long, protracted story that never really peaks. The schmaltzy, angsty emotional states don't help either, as nothing really resolves, and most of the characters aren't developed enough to show us anything remotely close to depth. As such, all efforts fall short, and it ends up being a disappointing, forgettable film See more Dec 22 I disagree with most critics and find myself instead very close to several common people. Ok it is not a masterpiece but is a hearthwarming movie with a great Sandra Bullock. What I liked most is that it manages to be a movie not just about a single theme as many other movies, even acclaimed ones, are. Sandra is a desirable sexy woman, an abandoned wife, a depressed person, a mom having to deal with complicated parenting issues, a job-seeker, a goofy character, a daughter in need of her parents’ comfort, has to deal with old friendships good and bad…all at the same time - and does all of it convincingly. In other words, resembles a real person in the real world. I think this is uncommon in movies. And it shows, not a perfect happy life or happy ending, but simply that by sticking to your humanity and true values, relying on the persons close to you, you can manage to live a decent (not perfect) life in spite of many bumps. Not a bad movie at all. See more 10/09/2024 Good drama that makes you cry See more Read all reviews
