A Brilliant Conflict

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Seeing the IMDb rating, I expected this one to be at least watchable. But my, was I disappointed! The movie is one of the most unimaginative ones I have watched for a long time. And to top it all, it completely lacked conviction. I know movies are supposed to be fantasy, but this one tried to treat a sensitive subject in a very shoddy way. Comparing anemia to cancer? really? The writer/director needs to think again. If I come across them, I would sure ask them about the climate on their planet. I am sure it must be quite different from that on Earth.And whats with all the selfishness of character portrayed in the movie? Yes, you might be dying, but that does not mean that you have to fulfill all your carnal desires before you kick the bucket. It is really depressing to think about this aspect of human nature. I am just thinking, what if the lady would have liked to commit a few murders and added that in her "to do list"? Would that also have been acceptable just because she was to die?I really need to watch some good movie to get this one out of my system.

it is a special film. because it has science to became, in a strange form, a kind of memory. a crumb from your life. cause - it is a pure honest movie. good actors. gentle script. universal story. it may be a soup for soul. but it has courage to be more. only a picture. without any extravagance or pink message. a woman. her existence. her family. her decision. nothing more. it is a film out of descriptions, reviews or critics. because it is itself. like an ice cube. like fly of a bird. like a meeting at a rock show. it is a touching experience. not moralistic or philosophic. only a testimony about ordinary choice. and new occasion to understand the form of love roots. nothing else. nothing more.but it is so beautiful !

Well yes the movie can be fun to watch but hey what is this director into? A woman with cancer stage 4, well she seems perfectly fine to me in whole movie and in fact very selfishly portrayed character, has a very loving and caring husband and she decides to have sex with other men to know how it feels, and she in fact falls in love with another guy, oh come on she is not a good example, I think if we know we will die in 2 months, the first thing is we will want to be as much good to our family as possible and here we have this young lady betraying her husband which is epic in my opinion, she has 2 lovely daughters a lovely husband and a very decent mother, I think she wants everyone feel the pain or maybe she is too dumb to know that they will feel more pain, the way she recorded all those tapes to remind them of her in future...ROFL I didn't feel any sympathy for her even if she was dying and reason is she started betraying her own family, her husband mainly and her daughters, moreover I wanted her to die faster cuz I was worried what if her husband found out she is doing it with another guy, that would have been disastrous for that poor husband lol, he would have died before her. Anyway I don't know what more to say , ppl may have different opinions but I think any man living would never want such a wife and never show any sympathy to such woman, even if we know there are millions of wives who cheat behind their husbands. It sucks and movie sucks too.

a great movie about real people, beautifully played, very well shot the lines the characters got are great too, as are the characters them self it's interesting how the movie manages not to drag you down, how it manages to stay positive, while the main character is dying ... beautiful - watch it if you get iti watched it by incident ... just cached it on TV and the title sounded interesting to me. now i'm very happy i stayed with this movie--- Ann: "Now you feel like you wanna take all the drugs in the world, but all the drugs in the world aren't gonna change the feeling that your whole life's been a dream and it's only now that you're waking up."
