Par H @Parhwy 4d Richard Says Goodbye (2019) is a 91-minute-long film I watched on Prime in March 2026. This is a film of two halves in six acts. The chapter font is as beautiful as Depp’s hair. That coif is king. The first half is interesting, entertaining. The second half does what a lot of comedies do: ends in a neat bow. I get it; even Greek comedies ended in a marriage. This film ends with dullness and gutters out with an awful green-screen driving scene. They even ruined Depp’s kingly coif with that icky, sickly green-screen oddness. If you watch this, look out for how much food is on the dinner plates – it’s much. Also, while hors d’oeuvres are still circulating, they are called to tables – where soup is already being eaten. Hey now? Christine Willes (who I’ll forever love as Dolores Herbig from Dead Like Me) gets a brief gig, such joy! This is a whiskey-sipping film where the director and the writer should have been two people not one person. Rewatch? No. Recommend? Yes, only for Depp’s hair.

But I think it really captures the human condition. It shows how, even though humans are beautifully simple, (which may misunderstood) we are also incredibly complex. When we confront our mortality, we break the boundaries of our consciousness, and that’s something more people should recognize.

JD is awesome, his portrayal subtle and less eccentric than usual but funny nevertheless. See more Mayra C @RT85218757 Sep 1 It was a great movie reminding us that nothing in this life is for ever. Specially for those of us who have lost someone at a young age and suddenly. I laughed, cried, and reflected with this movie. Don't know why the rating was so low, I loved it!!!
