The movie is just funny: Crying, dying laughing. I hate Chris Rock, but this movie is just funny. I needed this.

Long, drawn-out, and full of anger, but no resolution is ever forthcoming. The wife is inexplicable angry. The viewer keeps watching, waiting for the big reveal-why everyone is so unhappy (Because surely Leonardo Dicaprio could never star in a movie with no plot). This movie has no plot. Zero. Nothing ever happens; instead, everyone just keeps drinking and chain-smoking. Leonardo Dicaprio in all his glory just cannot save this one.

I am gonna write this in capital letters for emphasis: SLOW AND UNREALISTIC. In addition, it seems to be going in the same direction as all other movies by Tyler Perry. This is embarrassing to me and not worth the time.

A weird mystery with an end to make you angry.

Nicole Kidman's transformation into some kind of walking dead demon is not enough to get me past 30 minutes of this two-hour movie. The story is just not coming together quickly enough. Really, Nicole Kidman is not pulling off this role as a hardened, alcoholic detective-not realistic.

I am angry at myself for wasting my time on this movie. It has no plot. Shelly, the younger sister is unbearably irritating. Fran, the older sister looks like Julia Robers in Steele Magnolias. In fact, her resemblance and similarity to Julia Roberts is the only thing that keeps your attention-hoping that the movie will get better. This is a pointless movie. The whining on everybody's part starts to grind on your nerves.

Though dealing with a serious subject, the movie was done artfully. Uma Thurman was beautiful to look at and she played the character skillfully. The main character, Diana was likable as an adult and a teen, you get invested in her easily. The movie awakens feelings of some kind of joy at living life no matter how short, and a subtle warning not to take for granted. I even got an inspirational quote out of it: "Conscience is the voice of God in the nature and heart of man," so, I personally got my money's worth. I apparently saw this movie before and knew that I had, yet I wanted to see it again, I guess I must have not understood it fully before. I find it to be, not a suspense movie, but a mystery; the suspense lies in wanting to know the ending and ultimate point of the story. Understanding the ending for me was tricky-I said to myself, 'A clever person would have got that,' I myself had to Google it.

This movie grabs you and keeps you right up until the end. The actors did their jobs. It leaves you wanting more; it leaves you questioning, and thinking.

This was sappy, as close to cheesy as I have ever seen. The main character has zero personality and is not likable. The movie is about an anorexic girl but has no plot. This movie is a waste of time and is the single worst movie I have ever seen.
