If You're Gone

I loved this movie!! It definitely touched on reality of a real life event. There's so many teenagers in the world who never know Jesus due to never being brought up in church. Well worth watching!

They could have cut about 30 minutes and it would have been better. However, the story was excellent and kept my attention. The main star, Macey McLane, who played the main character Lilian, was the primary reason it kept my attention. She was outstanding! She was the best actor by far. There was something about her. Very convincing and real. A beautiful young actress with a lot going for her. I'd like to see her in more movies. Breath of fresh air.

Terrible movie do not waste your time watching this.

It seems that many viewers struggled to review this film, as I did myself, simply based on the unexpected ending. I started to skip this one, until I decided to research the individual for whom the film was dedicated. I was glad to have made the effort as it sort of 'humanized' the overall investment and sacrifice of many just to make the film, thus shifting my perspective from deflated emotions to a more balanced objective. That being said, I give the movie a solid '7' overall for the creative and talent componants, and the forging ahead to complete and bring it to market, as I can imagine the challenge for some in moving forward following the tragedy of a beloved member. As far as recommending, I would probably only do so if by prefacing that the viewer research facts revealed afterwards as I did. I would also highly suggest that they not attempt to do so prior to watching the film. Lastly, I came to final conclusion through writing this, that sometimes, life just doesn't make sense, and we're left to adjust to the truth that "it is what it is" and that's all it is.

My score is because some reviewers, who really don't know what to do, except trying to ruin movies, gave a stupid score from 1 to 3.

I'm not saying it's a great movie, but worth of 6 stars at least.

Many, not really intelligent reviewers never think the efforts that someone put to try to realize a movie. Many people involved, long time to plan, to shoot, even if it was just few days of shooting, behind that there was a lot of work and not easy at all. Those reviewers don't understand anything of what there is behind a movie. They just criticize, judge and they feel proud of giving 1 or 2 stars, many times without any good explanation. Sometimes they write only... the worst movie ever... this is the proof that they are brainless. No intelligent person would say something stupid like that.

Anyway this movie is not completely clear, it let you with many questions, even though the movies not always have to explain everything, sometimes you have to think with your brain and even you have to give your answers.

However the acting and also directing was good. Maybe something could have been changed, but in the end it wasn't bad at all and there were some question marks about what it really happened. The end probably won't be accept easily and I can understand that, because I found myself wondering why the movie ended in that way, it was possible to end it in another and maybe better way.

So many people don't believe in God and for them God is uncomfortable and this is interesting, because they are so worried that they are ready to condemn a film just because they hear talking about God. It's so funny, because even if they don't believe, they will be judge and as it's not a joke, it won't be just getting 1 or 2 stars as they are used to, it will be something completely different, I'm sorry for them.
