Morgen kommt ein neuer Himmel

I'm about to be offensive, but no offence, the lead actress seems like she hasn't ever lost anyone in her life, her line delivery especially the first time meeting the lawyer and saying "I just lost my mother" had absolutely no depth, no tears, no emotions, not even grief. No voice control, no empathy for the character shes playing. As shes watching videos from her dead mother there aren't even tears in her eyes, even as she watches the last video she seems to value looking pretty more than showing actual emotion. I really liked the male lead and all the other characters but I really wonder what happened behind the audition process that made her the lead. I could imagine so many young actresses doing a better job and making this a fantastic film. I'm not saying this as something like a hate comment, just that she really needs to think about loss and emotions and get in to the story. I often put my hand over her motionless face to at least try and focus at the story because she was just playing a pretty girl that doesn't want to get ugly. The story made me cry on multiple occasions imagining the young girls struggle yet the young girl acted like it was a vacation trip with her friend calling her on face-time not her dead mother continuously saying her last words to her from a dvd. Like she never even had her lips quiver for more than a milisecond (didn't want to be ugly, I guess, or just a bad actress) never had the horrible situation of not being able to finish a sentence, having words stuck in her throat because of grief or at least speaking like she has a lump in her throat -- actual real, raw and ugly human emotions after losing the most loved person. It made me so angry! Couldn't she at least try to take breaths before speaking? Even if we imagine that she was a cold and prideful character, we didn't even see her actually blocking the emotions that would almost come apparent. Never saw her swallowing tears, any despair, anything!! Absolutely horrible acting from someone in such a vulnerable role. Every actor should know their limits and not go for roles that they are not ready for.

It was precisely a refreshing movie , something new, something unexpected(at least in the beginning).

I don't have much to say about the acting and the direction as I found it to be good, I am not completely moved by the characters but it was a good watching them unravel in their own essence.

The bond between the mother and the daughter stayed with me the most, the way a mother helps her daughter sort her life even after her death was a very good concept. The concept of CDs and the in the chase of inheritance the daughter ends up figuring out her whole life which was beautiful.

I found it to be very predictable , but anyone who watches this movie would surely enjoy the process of it. It makes you want to have a family like what Alexandra Caroline Rose had, I would say she was really lucky to have them by her side always and she also gradually figured out their importance in the movie.

I liked how the brother and sister bond was shown, how they actually communicated through their emotions and how it was shown that just because your brother doesn't say anything or acts indifferent is not because he dislikes you but he might have his own insecurities or envies.

I liked the character of Alexandra who was fearless, bold and yet coy and was proudly a mess.

Overall it's a good watch, one must definitely watch it to lighten up their mood. I watched it with my mom, you should watch it with your beloved ones too.

A bucket (life) list with a twist , as being part of the terms of an inheritance.

Yes it's a predicatable love story, but if you like the genre, the journey is very pleasant .

The pace and acting is consistent throughout, it kept me entertained without peaks or troughs, a consistent quality of story telling.

If you likke films like 'Love Actually' or 'Notting Hill' then I suspect you will enjoy this for an evening's entertainment with a glass of wine.

Solid 7.5/10 and I could watch it again at a later date. A good old fashioned love story and finding oneself .

If you're looking for action, violence, sex and swearing, this is definitely not a film for you .

The movie had an interesting premise, but the execution was disappointing. The biggest issue was the lead actress, who failed to convey any real emotion. Her performance felt lifeless, making it hard to connect with her character. She had absolutely no chemistry with anyone, especially the love interest, which made their relationship unconvincing and awkward. This seems to be a recurring problem in her other films as well. Weak direction, uninspired storytelling, and poor pacing only made things worse. The film lacked depth, excitement, and impact, making it ultimately forgettable. Too long for its own good.

The Life List is a nice watch - warm, well-paced, and not overly dramatic. What stayed with me most is the message: pain and loss are part of life, but suffering is a choice. That idea isn't presented in a preachy way - it's just woven into the characters' decisions, especially as the main character starts reconnecting with what actually matters.

The portrayal of the mother-daughter relationship was especially well done. It shows how grief can create distance but also bring people back together, without sugarcoating the process.

It's the kind of movie that makes you pause - not because it's groundbreaking, but because it reminds you of things you already knew but maybe forgot. Like how helping others can also heal something in you.
