Summary: 2 Stars
Girl learns that she is dying of a brain tumor so she decides to return to her home town after being away for years. Once home, she lifts her father out of his self induced torpor (commendable), joins a support group (understandable), and wrecks her old boyfriend's marriage (wha...?).
Slightly stupid but studly Sam has a nice business and a solid marriage with a wife who is also his business partner. He seems happy and successful until his old girlfriend reappears in his life. Amazingly, although she has a short time to live, she looks fit and healthy. (She must have had one of those Hollywood cancers, where the victim just gets more beautiful the sicker she becomes - think Ali McGraw in "Love Story.") This vibrant, dying girl has a list of "to do" items, all of which seem to include Sam, never mind his restaurant or his wife.
A personal note here - my brother was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor when he was 48. He did not spend his last year skydiving or trying to reconnect with his old girlfriends, single or married. Instead, he did what he could to make sure that his affairs were in order and that his family was provided for. He did his best to create memories of a solid, sweet guy who thought more of those around him than of himself. And his body was ravaged by chemotherapy, radiation and gamma knife treatments. Only his courage made him beautiful. He died at 49.
But this dearly dying damsel is so wrapped up in her wants that she ignores the wreck of Sam's marriage and the shattered wife he abandons. And Sam! Sam needs a good swift kick. Maybe his marriage wasn't to his "one twu wuv." but his wife trusted and depended on him. As a result, she is made out to be the villain of the piece and actually spits on darling dying Dora. (In her place, I'd have given the nearly departed a knuckle sandwich.)
On the plus side, the movie showcases some lovely scenery, not the least of which is Gerard Butler. The man is smokin'! But the moral of the story? "Take whatever you can get and damn the consequences," are not exactly words to live (or die) by.
Movie Review: Dissapointing
Summary: 2 Stars
I just watched this movie...and sad to say...was very dissapointed. I didn't even find it heart wrenching...as I heard it was. This wasn't the best role for Gerry Butler.
His acting methods are MUCH more improved nowadays. I'm sorry....I just didn't feel sorry for this girl. I did like her father Frank in it. Also the ending seemed chopped...one moment she's lying in the hospital bed after her surgery talking to Sam...and then she was gone????? I thought the surgery was supposed to help extend her life? Being a huge fan of Mr. Butler...I won't be keeping this movie in my GB collection. I didn't think this was worth the money I paid for it.
Movie Review: I was actually dissapointed

OK the story is weak, but I have to say the acting in this was not good at all. Even being a fan of Butlers I have to say I really think this movie was a waste of time. The story was just ok, but so much was missing. The characters were weak and the ending was poor. The scenes at the cottage were lacking and left you wondering what happened. It to me was very poor. You knew what was going to be in the end and you felt like you were at a funeral the entire movie. With Gerard Butlers talent I think he morphed into a incredible actor today, yet with many of his films his choice in some have been questionable. This was one.
