Un homme pour la vie

if you're at home on a Saturday afternoon not particularly doing anything this is a GREAT movie to watch. its sensitivity, happy ending, and cute story line will transport you straight to i-wish-i-were-as-lucky-as-her world. So maybe it's not action-packed and full of large sets, but it's really nice. just one of those feel-good movies you blink tears away of at the end of the movie. and can i say this movie, unlike so many others, is actually Believable? i mean in other movies you either hang off the Brooklyn Bridge waiting for Spidey to come pick you up or wait till some sleazy politician falls in love with you. a definite recommended watch!!

"Lucky 7" was a touching and poignant story of a mother who creates a means to help her young daughter adjust to the fact that she (the mother)is dying, and in so doing she provides a way for the child to keep her mother in her heart and as a part of life.

By drawing a time-line for her 7 year old daughter,of things that will happen over the years to come,including school, career, and boyfriends, this young mother helps her daughter cope with her loss and makes her a vivid part of her life.

As the story progresses, you think you know how it will resolve,but there is definitely an element of suspense and surprise. There were no really bad characters here . . . so it doesn't give itself away, just a case of some being better suited than others.

The performances were very good and true to the characters. They were appealing and drew you into their story.

I really enjoyed this touching romantic comedy -- more romantic than comedy. I recommend "Lucky 7" and would watch it again.

As far as romantic comedies go, this one is one of my favorites. Although it was a made for TV movie it has the same feel as theater-worthy romantic comedies. Patrick Dempsey and Kimberly Williams-Paisley are both adorable. It definitely has a pretty high cheese-factor and is generally predictable, but you end the movie smiling every time without fail. I've watched it many times to put me in an automatic good mood. If you're in the mood for a light boy-girl movie then I highly recommend it! If you liked Patrick Dempsey in "Can't Buy Me Love," you'll enjoy this movie. It has a similar feel to that movie, but for more than just the teenage crowd.

I LOVED THIS MOVIE!!!... It would be wrong to view this film w/ high expectations. I don't think it even presumed to be more than a TV- movie so some omissions in the plot details are minor and rather irrelevant to the overall appeal of the movie. Even the neurotic lifestyle of Amy, while possibly a bit grating to some, is also OK on hindsight since I don't think viewers were supposed to take her too seriously. Personally, I was able to empathize w/ her, since I'm a bit of a control-freak, as well. Also, Patrick Dempsey played his character real well - as expected - & Peter was a very real character w/ whom I believe I could fall in love. He wasn't an over- the-top hero/underdog or anything, just your regular kind of guy. Very believable. Even Brad Rowe was convincing as Daniel. The great thing about his performance is he didn't try to make Daniel a nuisance. It really seemed as if Amy could as easily fall in love w/ him, as w/ Peter...The film seems to be a bit of light-hearted romantic fluff, but I think we could all use a wake-up call, a reminder not to take ourselves too seriously, to take risks, & to give all our relationships a chance!

Its funny, its touching, sweet, romantic, you can relate to the story and characters. Besides that the acting is good. Patrick Dempsey is always good, Kimberly Williams is very charming and witty. She deserves more good roles. And nice scenery in this movie. Of course you know how the story will turn out, but hey the whole movie is about predictions. I need more lines to post this comment, but there's nothing much else to say. Overall a nice movie to watch. No masterpiece but absolutely no bore or bad movie. One more line: don't rent it unless you've seen Box of moonlight or Coupe de Ville, but do watch it if it's on TV and you're in a romantic mood. I rate it 7 out of 10.
