Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
SnoopyStyle Kate Parker (Hilary Swank) is 35 with the perfect husband Evan (Josh Duhamel) and the perfect life. Her life is turned upside down by ALS. One and a half years later, she needs full-time help. She fires her nurse for treating her as a patient and hires Bec Cartwell (Emmy Rossum). Bec's life is a mess. Her best friend is Jill. Wil (Jason Ritter) has a crush on her but she's banging her married professor Liam (Julian McMahon). She's an aspiring singer with stage fright. Kate doesn't fit with her old friends Keely (Ali Larter) and Alyssa (Andrea Savage) anymore. She befriends John (Ernie Hudson) and his wife Marilyn (Loretta Devine) who also has ALS.The first most surprising thing is that Emmy Rossum is funny in this. She's doing Fiona from Shameless and she's good at it. Hilary Swank does her best impression of ALS. Once the comedy gets going, the heart can open up. The stage is set for the tear ducts to flow. I also like that Evan is a character with a couple of levels and Kate has a complicated dueling reaction. Bec's many personal problems are a little too broad. The film piles on her problems too thick. In the end, this is an unabashed tear-jerker and one must submit to the manipulations. Also the title is horrible. I get the meaning but it sounds like a bad self-help chant without knowing the story behind it. A better self-help phrase would be "Someone who sees me". At least, that sounds better.
Marton Robert i didn't have a lot of expectations for this movie, i went in like "OK, i'm gonna watch this" and i thought that after it's gonna be done, i would be like...meh, it was OK.But damn, this movie made me cry (the ending...when she jumps off the bed and goes to her, i started crying like a baby, i didn't cry in 2-3 years lol and this movie made me cry). It was a beautiful and sad movie, the actors played VERY WELL! this is my first review on the site and i'm here since 3-4 years ago, but only this movie made me write one.Watch it alone so you can cry, because YOU WILL CRY. I don't give 10 to movies, almost never, but this one deserves a 10 for sure.
dylananders Hilary Swank plays a great role in this movie, she truly shows the pain and suffering that someone with ALS faces. Although it is just acting, Swank moves you as she shows a struggling pianist that not only has to face a horrible disease, but faces emotional distress emotionally. As Swank's character becomes more sick, Swank must act more and more sickly, moving slower and speaking slower also. This movie pulls on the heartstrings as the fight between Swank's character and the fight with ALS becomes increasingly difficult. The fact that Swank can accurately represent the disease in the movie allows those that do not understand the disease to see the struggles and issues that those that suffer face every day. I enjoyed this movie because it is a serious drama and it made me feel happy, sad, joyous, and thoughtful all at the same time. It was joyous because Kate is enabled to live her life to the fullest and her caretaker, Bec, gets a new look at life. I would recommend this movie because of the great portrayal of Swank. The only thing that was weird was the character of Evan, portrayed by Josh Duhamel, although his character played an important role... he was only visible for the first 20mins of the movie, then his appearances were weird and misplaced. OVERALL: This movie is great for the portrayal of ALS, and Swank played a great role.
pmckinnon This is going to my Top 10 list! What a powerful movie.Yes, bring your tissues...you'll need them. I don't like it because it's a tear jerker (not really my favorite kind of movie), but because of the excellent story, fabulous screenplay and wonderful acting.No, it's not "squishy", not a girlie movie (it's Hillary Swank for goodness sake) - it's wonderfully engaging.Watch carefully. Pay attention. Hillary Swank shows us what she is feeling without a word. There are subtle clues that keep one IN the movie.This is one I'll watch many times.
