3/5
Warm and earnest in its depiction of Alzheimer’s disease, but its lack of ambition means that Live Twice, Love Once never amounts to much. Go to Full Review
Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Aug 23, 2022
3.5/5
While I can’t (and won’t) deny the movie’s dual effect (it’s both heart-wrenching and heartwarming), I also can’t deny that it ventures pretty deep into routine sentimentality. Go to Full Review

John Serba Decider Jan 10, 2020
It's earnest, well-meaning, entirely watchable and utterly forgettable. Go to Full Review

MikePT R @MikePTreviews 10 hrs ago Una hermosa y agridulce película sobre un profesor que decide buscar al gran amor de su juventud antes de que el Alzheimer borre sus recuerdos. Acompañado por su familia, especialmente por su nieta, este viaje se convierte en una lección sobre el perdón, la empatía y la unión familiar. Los momentos finales son desgarradores pero a la vez reconfortantes, mostrando que incluso en una residencia de ancianos y frente al avance de la enfermedad, la complicidad, los pequeños gestos y el afecto sincero encuentran la forma de permanecer. Totalmente recomendada. See more Aug 17, 2021 Es una película española muy divertida y conmovedora; la trama es buena y las actuaciones son excelentes. See more Jul 6, 2020 A moving story, which deals with a deep subject such as Alzhaimer and family. Una historia conmovedora, que trata un tema muy profundo como lo es el Alzhaimer, y la familia. See more Apr 16, 2020 A film from the heart for sure. At 74 myself, I have seen friends with alzheimers becoming less able to live well in this world that younger people often think is reality. I have wondered if perhaps I am seeing glimpses of forgetfulness more than I had before and wondering a bit at my own future. What an incredibly beautiful relationship between a grandfather, his memories, and his family, especially his granddaughter. It makes me wish I had grandchildren. I will be sending this to my own family, and all of my other senior friends. For anyone studying Spanish, this is a lovely slow paced and clearly spoken movie to include in your to watch list. (This is definitely Not for action film addicts.) Enjoy See more Joel H @RT63746990 Apr 13, 2020 This film, about a man falling into the abyss of Alzheimers, is wonderfully acted. Óscar Martínez as the lead role is excellent. It is about the relationships within his family, and how his condition affects everyone including himself. He is initially not close with them, but you see him need them more and more. The development of his relationship with his daughter (who tries so hard to fix everyone at her own expense) and his granddaughter (who is bratty but very smart) is powerful and moving. It is a deeply tragic film - how could it not be? - but is also very sweet and funny and thoughtful. By the end I was in tears, which is not my usual favorite kind of movie, but this one I recommend highly. See more Apr 4, 2020 This is a heartwarming film that looks into the reality of a terrible disease. Ive seen it twice and cried both times. Have your tissues ready! See more Read all reviews
