Saw this movie ... and i was curious about what others thought ...

Alil depressing, i will grant ya ... but as i get older ... I always like the "discussion" of death ... and being at deaths door , etc ...

With the Tim Russert , now George Carlin ... Sen Kennedy .... etc ... I too have a friend who was just diagnosed with some serious shit .... so ... I guess this was also on my mind before i saw it ... i didnt know too much about the plot etc .. just read the "box" before i saw it ...

I liked it . I mean i kinda expected a decent flick with Rob Reiner directing and Nicholson and Freeman .... but the end kinda did throw me alil .... any comments from anyone (i think the reviews were luke warm BUT i did hear from a few people that it was goood - thats why i chose to rent it )

Good flick. They tricked me from the start though.

this movie looks a little sappy and saccharine. i would have watched it with my mom - it seems like the kind of movie grown-ups would watch with their family. sentimental and harmless without actually being a disney cartoon.

Good movie, hated the crappy CGI backgrounds though.

It was a cute movie.

It starts fairly seriously, and appropriately, as it's about death. And while it's heightened reality, (ie not realistic) its subject is handled fairly realistically. And the leads are pretty much a guaranteed success.

haha, me too, but I was glad to know I was wrong, as what they led us to believe was pretty unbelievable.
