Read More Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have just one more day? In this fantastic journey of love, the incredible and delicious Alan Rickman comes back to give Juliet Stevenson what at first seems like her dream come true. As the film progresses, you can see the absolute love a man has for a woman when Alan Rickman's character begins to show this grieving woman what his flaws were. It's so true that when we lose a loved one, we usually only remember the good things about them which causes so much more sorrow. This film let's all of us in on their truth and their astonishing love. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Its one of my all time favorites. I didn't find it depressing, but more of a grief process that leads to the other side for the female lead. British humor can be different than what we have in America, but I've recommended this to everyone I know. This is truly where I fell in love (infatuated) with Alan Rickman. We get to see a different side of him vs. the Harry Potter movies, and Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves, or other movies that have him as a supporting actor. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL?

Read More Really good, engaging film with an unusual and lively storyline. Totally NOT depressing, although the main character does deal with deep grief--still, this is treated in a very positive, cathartic way. I think this is an appropriate & helpful film for anyone who has lost a beloved. Even if you have not, the story is touching and a good deal of fun. Great job Anthony Minghella for this fantastic story and directing!!! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More I couldn't agree with any of the other reviews. So here's what I thought: the story line was good, I thought the acting was superb, especially the parts where Juliet Stevenson showed emotion. The part where she was crying made you actually feel what she was feeling, and in a way that words couldn't describe. The only complaint I have about the movie is that it moves rather slow, and there wasn't much of a build up, or even any semblance of a climax, which made it hard to watch in some areas. Overall it's a pretty good movie, and worth watching if you have patience. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

The writing on this is brilliant. Juliet Stevenson is wonderful, but it really bugged me how when she was crying she'd just let the tears hang on the tip of her nose. For gawd's sake! I kept waiting for them to fall, which was really distracting. I also would have liked to get more about what happened to Jamie at the end. But it's worth watching just for the scene where they sing. Lovely. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

It's disappointing that they were not able to deliver anything, despite a good story line!
I wanted to turn it off at about 20 minutes, but because of the story, I watched in hopes that it would get better, but it never did.
Finally stopped it at about an hour, and I'm glad I did! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More I expected to like this movie a lot, because I really like Alan Rickman, who plays the male lead. Juliet Stevenson is fine, but I think she was overly emotional in some scenes. The supporting cast is great, but since so much of the time is spent on the main characters, I found myself bored. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |
