Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

2karl- Julia Roberts and Susan sarandon and ed harris star in this funny and bittersweet tale and a heartwarming story about the development between two remarkable people. Jackie is divorced with 2 children and has to deal that their father played by ed harris character Luke Harrison who has moved on but likes to help with the two kids Anna and Ben, the two children of Jackie and Luke, have to cope with the fact that their parents divorced and that there is a new woman in their father's life: Isabel, a successful photographer. She does her best to treat the kids in a way that makes them still feel at home when being with their dad, but also loves her work and does not plan to give it up. But Jackie, a full-time mother, regards Isabel's efforts as offensively insufficient.Julia Roberts is brilliant and her role but progresses along effecting Jackie as her 2 kids are left with a career minded who gives rash advice but as the find out about a sudden illness the pair help each other make a as things have being tricky but bringing her role as a photographer brings a perspective to her role a the girlfriend or step mother to her new kids the bring a common goal to their situation and celebrate life as the got the chance to brilliant film nearly 2hrs 7/10 it should have got Oscars for this sad film this is my 79 review

comfywithsweats I loved every bit of it. I remember watching this together with my whole family and hugging my mom at the end. The love they show for their mother is gold-worthy. It's also a realistic movie which makes it even better. Their mother doesn't like the stepmother at first because she still loves her ex-husband and she hopes to get back together but when she sees that their love is real she puts her hate aside and just tries to live through it all. The fact that the mother accepts the fact that another woman will take care of her children when she's no longer there had me in tears. It's a real tearjerker and a really good movie to watch with the whole family. It's a movie that will stay in your mind and heart forever. If you haven't watched it yet, this is your chance. You'll thank me later.

cineastFGD I'm a huge fan of Julia Roberts, for me she's one of the last remaining great Hollywood icons. However, this film is probably one of the most dreadful movies I've ever seen and it's really beyond me how she could every agree to act in this movie. Something that really made me hate the movie, is the completely uncritically displayed behaviour of the father. There is just one word for such a guy and that is 'jerk'. He does not take care of his sick ex-wife, he does not take care of his kids, and he destroys the most promising career of a young woman, just to replace his boring and wrinkled wife with a younger model. Of course the new girlfriend steps in when the Mum needs treatment and Daddy is absent again (wonder why he can afford two enormously expensive houses but no babysitter), sure she even looses her job over this, and sure she's the selfless angel that meets every insult and bad mouthed comment with a smile, that throws away a successful career for someone else's kids; just because of looove. What a terrible and outdated gender cliché, and I'm sure no one over 16 will buy this story.If you haven't already been nauseated by this plot, you surly will be by the tacky dialogues and scenes, which if it wasn't enough already, are sugarcoated with a non-stop layer of cheesy background music. This film leaves you with the feeling of sticky caramel between your teeth and of a disgusting overdose of sugary candy in your mental stomach. The cancer illness of the mother is portrayed so believably as if a 40 BMI person was dying of anorexia. Seems like dying of cancer is just a piece of cake and mostly a matter of lying elegantly in some chair wrapped in a shawl. This is probably the most pathetic part of the movie. Unless you are really into unrealistic, blimpish, and corny movies, save your time and watch something else.

Alejandro Marrón God, i can't believe this movie is rated 6.2. It should at least be rated 7.5, and it could even be 8.5!Let's just say this movie is the one that has moved me and made me cry the most in my whole life. Well, moved me in a sad way.I don't know what kind of ability Susan Sarandon's got, but all she did in this movie made me cry. She's such a good actress, and this movie suits her perfectly.I've never been much of a Julia Roberts' fan, considering i find Notting Hill and pretty woman kind of boring, but i loved her in this movie, how she really tries to bond with the kids and Susan to get to the point where the kids almost rather being with her than with their mom. Julia gives her best, in my opinion, she is a very good actress as well. Drama suits her.The kids are the other thing that gives movie that amazing flavor. How the girl answer to Susan, Julia and her dad is just so sad and good. Klaus Baudelaire's actor is so small and great as the little kid, who knows enough of the situation and gives the movie it's nice and happy moment.I didn't think the husband was anything important.And, of course, what makes this movie as sad and as great as it is, is the incredible directing of Chris Columbus, who directed two of the movies of my favorite movie series and book series: Harry Potter. I don't know why, but he's just got this gift for directing. Oh god, when i saw it i didn't know it was Columbus', and when i realized i now know why it's great.Some may say it's melodramatic, but i wouldn't agree. It's just good drama, one of those were you can't stop crying but that has a good plot involved as well.Bottom line, loved it. Very enjoyable and i recommend it highly. Good job Columbus, as usual.
