  But not young enough
  
  No great shakes. The storyline could be great but it's tackled in the wrong way. The acting is good but not brilliant and the sets are overstated.

  Typical Roberts - good though!
  
  Julia Roberts in a role which seems tailor-made for her. If you like your movies romantic, you'll like this one.

  Informative
  
  The film was good in that it showed how living with leukemia affects both the physical and mental state.I felt however that it was lacking something.
