It sucks that the backcover gave away the only twist in the movie. What the %^&**^&^%!! What marketing genius decided that was ok?? Otherwise, Dermot and Amanda P. were great in this. Dermot gave the best crying scene I've seen from a male actor. The plot is a bit maudlin and contrived though. Get the tissue boxes out!

Much like everyone else, I hadn't heard anything about this movie prior to Blockbuster recommending it to me. I am wholeheartedly glad, however, that the recommendation was made, as I really enjoyed this story. I thought that the chemistry between Dermot Mulroney and Amanda Peet was remarkable, the dialogue was good, and the acting was heart felt. I felt there were two small downsides/discrepancies, however. First, how likely is it that they both are going to have terminal cancer? They didn't meet at a hospital, they met in a college/continuing ed class. Second, DM's character has two young sons, and I was surprised that he wasn't spending more time with them. But, with both of these things overlooked, this movie made me laugh, it made me cry, and it made me a bit jealous of their "true love," which, by the way, was beautiful.

I thought this movie was going to be so amazing and I was really disappointed! It just drug on and on. I was expecting a romantic comedy and for this movie to be about two teens. It's about two old people and it's not really what I'd call "live like you're dying" material. I was disappointed.
