ThiefHott Too much of everything

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Finches_Wings It is not top notch but this film should definitely be given more credit. it tries to remind us, yes, yet again (but I think no matter how many reminders we get, we still don't get it,) that we should live our life as if each day was our last because one of them will eventually be the last nd also that we should hurry to say our dear ones that we love them indeed. Lanie is a woman representing the typical ugly duckling insecure type turned into a beautiful career shark. She lives with the illusion of a perfect life, with a seemingly perfect career and a perfect boyfriend until the prophet foretells her imminent death. she sets about to change the texture of her life, discovering how empty her life really was and rediscovering her true self, dropping the quest for self-approval which dominated her whole life.The actors did a great job. I didn't see Angelina Jolie in such a role before but I must say she handled it with talent. Her acting very much added to the emotional part of the story. Ed Burns did a nice job too, although I had the impression that by the time the movie ending he got slightly weary. also, the music choice was really great.Overall, the story balances between humour and drama, and while it does have its dose of typical elements, it presents the events technically very nicely. There is a sense of completeness to this thoughtful story. Plus it carries a meaning which cannot be stressed enough. Does your life have meaning?A very good job indeed!

moviewizguy A reporter, Lanie Kerrigan, interviews a psychic homeless man (Shalhoub) for a fluff piece about a football game's score. Instead, he tells her that her life has no meaning, and is going to end in just a few days.The moral of this story has been told ever single time from "It's a Wonderful Life", to "Last Holiday", even to "Click". Each of these movies have always won me over because I love moral stories and I certainly love this movie!Sure, you've seen this so many times before. Sure, it's filled with clichéd, Sure, it's predictable what's going to happen before it happens. But it's a feel good movie. It puts a smile on your face when it ends. Don't go on the movie too hard.I loved the performance by Angelina Jolie. The supporting characters give us some laughs along the way, although the film isn't too funny but more like a drama. I like the score for the film. I liked the film a lot but not as much as I thought it would be. Still, it was a pretty good film if you like moral movies. "Live everyday like it will be your last."

Claudio Carvalho A successful reporter of Seattle is advised by a homeless prophet that she has only seven days of life. While reevaluating her professional and sentimental life, she finds love. I found the premise of this movie very promising: What could you do if you know that you have just seven days of life? Unfortunately the execution was awful! The story is totally corny and shallow: Lanie Kerrigan seems to be very happy and proud with her career, pursuing a dream of working in a network. Life is made of choices, but the way the story is told, it seems that work and love are events exclusives and not possible to happen simultaneously. Further, the lead characters Lanie and Pete do not have any chemistry and they fall for each other too much easy for my taste. The semblance of the blonde Angeline Jolie is horrible. Last but not the least, the situation in Lanie's family, especially with her sister, is not well explained. I really did not like this movie. My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "Uma Vida em Sete Dias" ("A Life in Seven Days")

perteegerl I initially rented the movie Life or Something Like it because of Angelina Jolie who has been my favorite actress for years due to her talent and ability. I really enjoyed the film and was surprised to find myself interested in a chick flick as it were. I felt like being a better person by the time I reached the end credits. Re-evaluating my lifestyle and all. After the first introduction of Edward Burns though I have to admit I was captivated and had no trouble believing that there could be a connection between the two characters not only due to their incredible acting abilities, but also the magnetism I felt when I saw him on screen myself. Wow what an incredibly attractive man! Talent and good looks...count me in! I have taken note of his filmography and I am headed to blockbuster! I have found my new favorite actor. Bye bye Ben.
