No question this isToni Collette and Drew Barrymore play best friends since childhood, a relationship full of wild memories and special times. When one of them is diagnosed with cancer, it presents new challenges for them and their families. No question this is a chick flick, but the weepie component feels forced, making it fall short. Even though the impact of the disease is depicted in devastating detail, it's trying too hard for sympathy and sobs. The performances are engaging, the humorous repartee softens the setbacks and Catherine Hardwicke's direction is effective. It just lacks the dramatic punch that would have made it memorable.… Expand

A film that lends itself to reconciliations and emotional manipulation but it has a nice feeling of realism thanks to the scenes in the hospital which does not make the disease something irrelevant.

The film isn't something spectacular but works fine with its elements and the good performances of its main characters Toni Collette and Drew Barrymore.
With this film's director Catherine Hardwicke gets a little back on track after her recent failures and offers her best work as a filmmaker since Lords of Dogtown.

As I said it's not great but it's a drama with good elements, enough to keep one's attention… Expand
