    Don't bother.

    When i saw the preview for this film i thought it looked pretty exciting, someone finding out they are going to die and want to blow all their money on a holiday in europe, sounds like fun. I was very wrong. Honestly it was the first film i have walked out of. I was sitting there waiting...and waiting for something to change my mind but it was just very predictable, very boring, very slow and very dull. I got more entertainment out of watching the bunch of 12 year olds at the back of the cinema making shadows on the screen. Trust me when i say don't waste the space of adding this film to your 'my selection'. If you want to see a good film about someone who thinks they are about to die see 'life or something like it' now thats a good film. cheers

    Great if your an LL Cool J Fan!

    Toatlly ridiculous at points, saw it all coming and not particulalry funny but hey it was everything that I expected with the added bonus of LL Cool J. Queen Latifah is good and well it's a light watch.
