Demain est un autre jour

I don't get why Netflix casts this actress for main roles. The movie could have been so much better if someone else was portraying Alex. It seemed to me the whole time she was trying to keep her hair unmoveable. Her face and frame is staying still in moments when she could have shown some spark. It annoys me how she is whispering her words. I didn't believe her for a second she is "Alex", I didn't see the character - only the actress pretending to be someone. I had the same issue with her in the other main role for Netflix - Purple hearts. Exactly the same face and hair issue, all the same "play", whispering and posing beautifully. I mean - she is very beautiful, no denying that.

The movie is good, perfectly predictable, plain and flat. You get it from the title. From the 5th minute on you know what is going to happen and almost exactly how. All of the characters you have already seen in all the other movies of the same type, no surprise whatsoever, no complexity. Worth for killing 2 hours.

I liked the story overall, I think the book is probably good. Haven't read it yet, maybe will some day.

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.

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 Life List (2025) was surprisingly easy to sit through, even with its longer runtime. The pacing was pretty well-balanced, which helped a lot. I appreciated how the story packed in life lessons without getting preachy or feeling like it was dragging. It had this light tone that made it watchable while still trying to say something meaningful, even if it didn't always dig as deep as it could've.

The directing was a bit safe, and while that's not always a bad thing, I think the movie could've gone a little further with emotional depth. A lot of the focus is placed on how the main character reacts to situations, but sometimes it felt like the movie brushed past what actually mattered in the moment. The acting, though, made up for a lot of that. The leads did a solid job carrying the weight of the story. The supporting cast was hit-or-miss, but nothing that pulled me out of it.

Visually, it looked great. The cinematography was smooth, with a nice mix of bright tones and more grounded scenes that worked well with the mood. I also really liked the music choices. The soundtrack wasn't overwhelming but it blended in perfectly, adding just enough to keep the emotional beats working. The script had its flaws, sure, but it didn't feel forced. It served the story, and even if it leaned into familiar territory, it didn't lose its charm. All in all, it's not groundbreaking, but it's a comforting watch with a decent message.
