Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

samumate Firstly, I read the book, an amazing book which made me feel lots of things: happiness, love and, mostly, sadness. Secondly I watched the movie, marvellous movie, with superb actors. I cried when they were crying, I laughed when they were laughing. Everyone should watch it, just for understanding how much someone can love a person.

branimirgabric I thought it will be beautiful romantic movie that glorifies life, but at the end, euthanasia happens. Beautiful, romantic euthanasia in Switzerland (cynically) I wrote this from my point of view; I spent 9 months helping people with tetra and paraplegia, people that embrace life.

monesque The most notable part of this movie is Emilia Clarke. It is always fun to watch fine actors in something besides their signature pieces that you knew them from. In the old days, John Wayne was always John Wayne. Here, you can barely recognize Emilia Clarke, a high compliment. She has nothing of the Game of Thrones' Queen. There is nothing of that character's confidence, arrogance and presence. She is wholly transformed. There are many other recognizable faces in the cast for fans of contemporary British acting--like one of Clarke's G.O.T. colleagues, Brenda Coyle from Downtown Abbey and Jenna Coleman from Doctor Who--but only Clarke becomes a completely different person. It is worth watching this just for that transformation. (For most of the movie, she even LOOKS puffier and plainer, not exactly the image presented in G.O.T., whether deliberate or not.) The movie...charming and bouncy at first, with a poignant and increasingly sappy overlay ultimately, is not as interesting as the cast, but it is well worth watching and nicely paced. To be sure, there is a certain inevitability as to where it is going, but for most of the movie the tone is light and it refrains from wallowing in despair. Until it does. Those last 20 minutes are the least successful, unless you just enjoy a good cry.

riyadhen I had never read the book that this film is based on. And yet it seems I should read the book now.
