Diagonaldi Very well executed
Bereamic Awesome Movie
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Davis P A little bit of heaven is cute and well acted. The cast here really is pretty great, Kate Hudson is awesome in the lead role, Kathy bates is good here, Whoopi Goldberg is good to see, and hey even Pater Dinklage was enjoyable in his small cameo. This movie, in my opinion, is pretty well written, well acted, and the premise is smart and hasn't really been done exactly like this before. The chemistry between the cast members is electric, especially the romantic connection between the lead lovebirds. I'm not quite sure why this movie got crapped on and hated by so many, it was cute, sad and heart felt at the same time, and well done. I enjoyed a little bit of heaven, and I think you will too, and that is why it scores a big 8/10 on my movie rating scale. Go and have an enjoyable but also sad time with this one! Also,yes, this movie is definitely sad, but there's also a happy element to it.
SnoopyStyle Marley Corbett (Kate Hudson) is a strictly-single ad executive in New Orleans. She avoids any real commitments with her hookups. Her best friends are co-worker Sarah Walker (Lucy Punch), pregnant Renee Blair (Rosemarie DeWitt) and gay neighbor Peter Cooper (Romany Malco). She feels sick and goes to see Dr. Julian Goldstein (Gael García Bernal). While under, she sees God (Whoopi Goldberg) who gives her three wishes. She wishes to fly, $1 million and something for later. She has late stage colon cancer. Her parents Beverly (Kathy Bates) and Jack (Treat Williams) can't stop fighting even with their daughter sick. She wins a radio contest to learn hang gliding. Dr. Sanders (Alan Dale) tells her that chemo isn't working and she goes on a medical trial. She finally tells her boss Rob Randolf (Steven Weber) and he tells her about a million dollar payout from the life insurance. Peter sets her up with gigolo escort Vinnie (Peter Dinklage) nicknamed Little Bit of Heaven.Is it really a bad thing to cross a cutesy rom-com with cancer? The critics seem to think so. I don't judge it like that. This is by no means perfect. Whoopi Goldberg as God is distracting as hell. Gael García Bernal is not fully committed to being a bad English speaker. He should really throw in a lot of Spanish. Kate Hudson is at home with these silly rom-coms. Her flightiness is more of a defense mechanism so I don't really take it as cutesy. The cancer stuff allows the movie to transition to heartfelt seriousness although it's very jarring sometimes. The tone is a tricky thing in this movie and it does struggle. However I don't mind treating cancer with a lighter tone.
Aditya Pathak Another touching, sad ending story of a cancer patient. The plot of the movie resembles with any other movie having a story of cancer patient. Marley(Kate Hudson) having a successful career, suddenly come across with a news that she had colon cancer, in the last stage. After having all treatment, her doctor Dr. Julian Goldstein(Gael Garcia Bernal) found nothing else can be done. Marley and Julian fell in love and they do their best to make rest of their time memorable. Meanwhile in the story, Marley's family issues come across which are very emotionally portrayed. Movie has some very emotional moments which you really feel. All over it's a nice movie to watch. Acting of Kate Hudson looks natural. Watch it.
Morad Elshehabi I wanted to watch a nice comedy movie so I picked this from my watch list. Kate Hudson, comedy.. sounds nice, I expected something cute, I didn't read the plot before watching. So it turned out to be a cancer movie.. OK,, that works for me two. But somehow, it was hanging in the middle, it's not comedy, not funny and not dramatic nor touching. Acting is bad. but you don't expect Oscar performance in a light comedy, right! .. anyhow.. most of the story looks like unnecessary load of details.. troubles with the father, troubles with the mother, troubles with the friends, love the doctor, have cancer! .. it's like collecting any problem that can come in someone's life and adding it randomly. The usual "I have cancer so I'm mean to everyone" with Kate Hudson's acting is just not catchy! .. when she tries to do heavy dramatic moments she ends up looking very unnatural and unreal. Fantasy! dreaming once and having three wishes blah blah blah .. not really fantasy but not really realistic.. Not the best massage for cancer patients. I recommend you NOT to watch the movie. If you like good quality movies or even a cute flick for fun, this is neither.
