this really sucked

Wow, that's an in-depth analysis. Congrats.

no it isnt,so you dont have to congratulate me.but thanks anyway. there's no need for an in-depth analysis because there is no depth in the movie. it just plain and simple sucked.worst movie of the year.

I think they did not mean for it to be a shallow look at grief.

I agree, I found the colleagues of will Smith absolutely horrible and disgusting. Just as Helen her character and that kid. And then the ending where they pretend not knowing eachother. Like seriously!?!?

This was like a worse version of that movie "reign over me" with Adam Sandler and Don Cheadle. That film was a much more interesting approach to a man overcoming grief. This film was awful.

Exactly this!

No need to waste words on

And yet, that is exactly what it was.

Totally agree.

Dumbest "surprise element" ever- and who really cared ?

It was a lead the audience up the garden path kind of a movie telling them lies so as they could manipulate a "surprise" ending. I found it mawkish instead of touching.
