Love of My Life

A woman finds out she might only have a few days to live but her ex husband still hopes to win her back.

This is extremely far fetched and the situations are often off putting and forced but there are still enough good moments to make this an enjoyable romantic drama.

It features a good cast ( three of which were main characters in Four Weddings and a Funeral). Although not riotously funny there is a good smattering of funny moments throughout.

Although probably not as good as it should have been considering the cast involved this is still worth a look if you're in the mood for some easy light hearted entertainment.

A number of well known names including John Hannah and Anna Chancellor attracted me to this film but it was more like a Whitehall farce.

Husband Tom was overacted and strangely pathetic, I had no idea this was supposed to be a comedy, the introduction to the film did not indicate this was the case.

A waste of a number of very capable actors, worthy of so much more.

With a good story they did a bad job.

Bad acting, stucked plot.

They put babies "more black" when small, then when they grow up they don't match! ( the black "twin brothers") Small children that don't look alike at all with the actors used when they are older (Sarita) They changed actors for main characters..Why?? Why don't they work with some makeup to make them look older? There's a moment when you're lost- who is who?

You were expecting something BIG when Mariana goes to meet Mr Stewart (Joaquin) after so many years..and she doesn't recognize him!

(not even you! ) So I stopped watching.

Pity about the weak script, but by some miracle the director has managed to dovetail British and Canadian humour. The two men are a weepy alcoholic and a hardline Scot, author of a bestselling book. The arrival of the blonde English ex-wife of Richard wearing a faux leopard-skin coat is the culmination of class horror: she was married to an award-winning author but dresses like a Primark frump. Betrayals, interrelations, guilt, self-acclaim. Grieving in advance, it's all borderline histrionic. How many British citizens in the last century have actually read Middlemarch by one of the country's greatest authors? My guess is around 2%, including those forced at school, who never reached the end. While the night scene in the bar with her agent deserves an award for poor acting (not entirely their fault, the script is uneven), the café set with the daughter, boyfriend (his wife), and mother is hilarious and too short; more competent screenwriters would have drawn it out into a Greek tragedy/farce. "We are giants, full of rage and joy," says the stricken mother [1:06]. And the best but too-brief comedy scene takes place in yet another café when Kaitlyn meets her online date in the presence of her biological father and the step-sister. The boy is a cute ingenue, eminently eligible, does not even know that the father is an icon of world literature, so the playing field is level. Pity the writer/director didn't take the macabre further, and instead we get plinking pianos and classic American reckoning. In the end, however the Canadians might pitch their differences from their neighbours across the border, they are on the same continent after all (and in the same boat), sharing the abhorrent history of displacement and genocide of the native populations. Not a single non-white non-Caucasian individual in the entire movie. No wonder a third of your tax-paying population is p*ssed as hell.

Carr-Wiggen is the mind behind this concoction surrounding a (maybe) death sentence. This movie, like "If I were You" has a gorgeous theatrical situation. At last a movie where the characters are not complete idiots, though at least a portion of each of them is an idiot. Carr-Wiggen has a talent for mixing the serious with farce. The movie has the flavor of bedroom comedy played out in a pudding of nostalgia, with new plums being pluckd up along the way. Love plays out like a piece of music, with all its variations. The tucked on ending a suspect came from some business mind, not Carr-Wiggen

One thing that always recommends a movie to me is the actors seeming to enjoy themselves, and in this one they have a ball.
