Julia S @RT46150099 Sep 27, 2026 I personally really enjoyed this film, I don’t understand why the critics seem to believe this movie was horrible because I found it very sweet and emotional. The way this movie handles grief and what it can do to a person was done well. It’s not a perfect film but please ignore the critics and watch this movie yourself See more Par H @Parhwy Jun 2, 2026 The Book of Love (2016) is a 107-minute-long US drama I saw on Prime in June 2026. This film gets to the point quickly albeit using narration and flashbacks inter-cut and overlayed with a single morning family scene which beggared my belief especially Biel’s scripting. Sudeikis’ goes through the most well-shaved grief I have seen while the director gives us aberrant behaviors. Ironic, given he beards-up by the 61st minute. He only grief ragequits at the 70th minute. This is not an acting issue; it’s story and scripting. I will also ragequit at the thought an architect dunking his pencils into their tub nib down, rubber up. Absolutely chaos. Their project takes days, weeks… yet it’s a weekender at most. Williams is clearly a skilled actor. Her accent sometimes sounded Bostonian to my Australian ear, same with Steenburgen’s. The ending is utter melodrama and so is the constant swelling music. Rewatch? No. Recommend? Maybe. 2/10. See more Jj J @RT98374971 Dec 18, 2024 I'm currently learning Italian and I found it dubbed in Italian. I then found the English version and I adore this movie. It may not be perfect but it has heart.

Some of the best movies I've seen got very horrible ratings by these so-called experts. I found this movie to be entertaining and heartfelt. I especially understood what losing someone you love can do to a person. For the critics that thought it shallow or with no substance, bully for them. Apparently they've never been in that position to have lost the love of your life, let alone a child. Shame on them. This is a movie worth watching.

Buen drama, de paso lento y algún momento de humor bien colocado. Personajes queribles, una película que va a cumplir siempre y cuando uno logre empatizar con ellos de entrada.
