My Sister's Keeper (2009)
This movie was so amazing
Having grown up in a similar situation all I can say is that this movie hits you where you live. It brought back so many things that I buried. Cameron Diaz as the fighting Mother, Jason Patric as the loving devoted father were absolutely spot on. The siblings relationship put tears in my eyes. The nonchalant scene of Anna cleaning Kate was perfect. The different ways everyone dealt (or didn't) with having someone you love go thru everything was pretty on target. I was left utterly gutted after seeing this beautiful movie. The soundtrack was gorgeous. It was a cathartic experience and I really don't say that lightly. I bawled.
Second Act (2018)
Not getting the hate.
I liked this movie. It was kinda sweet. I'm not sure what people were expecting out of a rom com? Oscar noms? Please.
Vanessa and Jlo definitely were believable in their rolls. Leah is funny in everything. She never disappoints.
I thought it was well casted. Musical choices were right for the time and season. I loved all the New York background. I liked the shopping scenes. It's a fantasy to be able to shop in NYC with unlimited funds. Who wouldn't like that ?
What wasn't believable, definitely the resume. Her interview outfit was a terrible pick. Jlo's character didn't live under a rock. I'm absolutely sure she knew what was appropriate for a job interview. Others pointed out her work attire wasn't proper but I can tell you that it was.
Come on guys it's a rom com. It's not that deep.
