12/13/2020 I get it’s his own decision but I personally think this was a super a-hole move to put your family thru 2.9 See more 09/11/2020 Ugh, what a depressing horrible movie. Prior to this I had only seen Frank Langella in a few movies (most notably "Dave", which I love), but he can't save this movie and neither can anyone in the cast. I don't like Billy Crudup to begin with and he kind of irritated me all through this movie. Despite the movie's premise, I expected it to be touching. Instead it's dark, unfunny and just... angry. Had it only been Brian and Raymond who went on the trip to Oregon and then bonded in the process, I would have liked this movie a lot more. The only good thing about this movie was the music but unfortunately good songs don't make up for this mess. I didn't care for Christina Applegate either, who plays the mother. Her kids are as screwed up as the rest of her family. I didn't see the point of her daughter lifting up her shirt and taking a picture of her chest, but surprise surprise, it comes back to haunt her later in the movie. Now I know why this has been in my Watchlist for so long but at least it's over now. Too bad I can't get those 100 minutes back. See more 08/16/2020 Truthfully told. Great acting. It will make you laugh and cry. Even if you, (like me) are against the principle of physician assisted suicide, this film gives you a look behind what goes on in a family confronted by it. See more 06/05/2018 I really enjoyed this move. The acting, especially Frank Langella, was superb. The story was a raw, truthful look at end of life decisions - how end of life affects the individual and their families. Really makes you think about things you might not want to think about. But well done. See more 09/08/2017 A movie everyone should see. True scene after true scene of people in denial living the way Americans live. See more 09/07/2017 The dramedy benefits and drives reliably from the relatable familial dynamics it stems on, as well an outlook on life's supposed instinctive finish tried to be expressed through a letdown, melodramatic atmosphere and pessimistic truth. The thorough progress of the plot brought out really good performances from the cast to show heart and emotions, along with some brief tonal family sitcom.
