Just finished watching this, and man, was I impressed with it. A really good movie, from start to finish, it is one of the rare ones that I have watched recently that has kept me in my seat, watching from start to finish, with no breaks. Really well acted, and written, with a good cast, and a strong and emotional story. I will definitely be watching this one again.

such a disappointment

A widow (Berry) invites her husband's friend, Jerry (Del Toro) to live with her and her two kids. Her husband's best friend (Lynch) befriends Jerry.

I fail to see what was so great in this movie, certainly not the script !

As for the acting, only Benicio del Toro and John Carroll Lynch are worth mentioning. The others definitely delivered second rate performances, esp... read more

Since I have a weak spot for Halle Berry and Benicio Del Toro, I was really eager to check this flick. The other thing that intrigued me was it was Susanne Bier’s first English language feature.

A good movie

“Since I have a weak spot for Halle Berry and Benicio Del Toro, I was really eager to check this flick. The other thing that intrigued me was it was Susanne Bier’s first English language feature. All right, I have to admit, it has been a while since Halle Berry has done anything really interesting (except for ‘Cloud Atlas’) and Del Toro who remains a really impressive actor doesn’t make much movies nowadays and he doesn’t pick up the best ones in my opinion. Eventually, like most of Bier’s work, it was a really strong drama, even it is was still rather flawed. Indeed, the story was really striking about this drug addict losing his only friend and this woman losing the love of her life and the way they stick together to cope with this situation. I’m a real fan of Susanne Bier— read more

"Watched: 20.7. A good and peaceful drama, which doesn't offer anything special, but nothing bad either. Actors play the roles well and the film manages to entertain. But I don't might feel like to watch this too many times. "

"29.10. 2010 A woman trying to deal with a loss of a loved one invites her drug-addicted friend to live in the same apartment with her and her kids. However, overcoming their personal problems seems to be almost impossible at times so the only way to keep their lives together is to develop a smooth working relationship, no matter what it takes. The director of the simple film prefers using strict close-up shots of the human faces as a method of depicting accurately varying moods of the suffering"
